Prince Harry’s decision to accept the Pat Tillman Award has proven controversial on both sides of the Atlantic.
Prince Harry has sparked outrage after being honoured with the Pat Tillman Award at the 2024 ESPY Awards, also known as the Oscars of the sporting world.
The honour is given out to those who have made “remarkable civic contributions” to sport, with Harry supposedly being given it due to his work with the Invictus Games.
However it has proved to be a controversial decision in both the UK and the US, suggesting that he and Meghan Markle are now losing their popularity on both sides of the pond.
The Telegraph claimed: “It has become increasingly clear that he is now as divisive a figure in the US as he is in the UK.”
A friend of the Royal Family told the Daily Beast: “The irony of the whole of the last four years is that Harry and Meghan said they were leaving the Royal Family so the media would leave them alone. And now, here Harry is, literally picking up retail awards on live TV. It’s pathetic.
“If you get a medal in the army, you don’t brag about it, so the idea of turning up at a televised awards ceremony to be honoured would be utterly embarrassing to most military people. It’s really sad to see Harry, who was an amazing guy who everyone respected, doing this kind of stuff.”
