48,000 SIGNATURES SO FAR Calls mount to strip Prince Harry of AWARD HONOURING MILITARY LEGEND Pat Tillman, positioning the Sussexes two of the ‘MOST UNPOPULAR FIGURES IN THE US’
In a recent turn of events, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have found themselves at the center of controversy in the United States. ESPN’s decision to award Prince Harry the prestigious Pat Tillman Award has sparked outrage, particularly from the mother of the late US war hero, Pat Tillman.
Pat Tillman, an NFL star, tragically lost his life in action after joining the US military following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. His legacy is honored through the Pat Tillman Award, which recognizes individuals with a strong connection to sports and a commitment to serving others
Mary Tillman, Pat Tillman’s mother, expressed her disapproval of ESPN’s choice to honor Prince Harry. She believes that the award should have gone to someone who truly embodies the spirit of sacrifice and duty. Her sentiments are echoed by many Americans who feel that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s actions do not align with the values they hold dear.
Royal commentator Nile Gardiner weighed in on the situation, labeling Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as “two of the most unpopular figures in the US today.” Their perceived narcissism and divisive behavior have not endeared them to the American public, especially those who hold the Royal Family in high regard.
