Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, has reportedly been left “hurt” by the backlash his wife, Meghan Markle, received for the Paris video she shared last week.
Meghan, 44, faced some criticism after sharing a video during her visit to Paris, where it appeared that she wasn’t far from where Princess Diana’s fatal car accident happened in 1997.

Meghan Markle’s Paris video
Earlier this month, the Duchess of Sussex made a surprise appearance at Paris Fashion Week.
In a video uploaded to her Instagram Story, Meghan filmed herself in the back of a car, with her feet up on the seat opposite, watching the Paris sights as she was driven through the city.
However, critics of the duchess claimed that in her video, she was near the Pont de l’Alma tunnel, where Princess Diana’s car accident happened that resulted in her death in August 1997.
Though the bridge wasn’t visible in the video, the duchess came under criticism all the same.
“I don’t understand what on earth she was thinking. Well, she can’t have been thinking. No adviser would ever advise doing something so strange,” royal expert Richard Fitzwilliam told the Daily Mail.
“She has every right to go to fashion events. But to share a video that had any connections with the tragic death of the Princess of Wales defies belief. I’m sure she didn’t mean to cause offence; she can’t have been thinking, but it’s insensitive beyond belief. It’s a complete absence of thought.”
