Uvalde, Texas Parents Left Shocked Over Meghan Markle’s Memorial Photo Op

Was it really that necessary to take photos of the entire ordeal? Maybe, maybe not. British Royal News says there’s a new report that says parents of the survivors of the Uvalde, Texas shooting have been left shocked over the fact that Meghan Markle decided to fly in and pay her respects to the victims that died in last week’s mass shooting. A shooter entered an elementary school and shot dead 19 children and 2 adults in what is being called the worst mass school shooting in over a decade. Here’s what you need to know.

Uvalde, Texas Parents Left Shocked Over Meghan Markle’s Memorial Photo Op

Royal biographer Angela Levin, who often criticizes a lot of what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle say and do, made it pretty clear that Meghan dropping in unannounced was probably not a good idea. She said, “It becomes all about her, as usual. I thought it was terrible and I heard the parents are shocked.”

And while Meghan’s trip was unannounced, a lot of people believe it shouldn’t have happened to begin with. Of course, it didn’t take long at all for both her fans and followers to weigh in on the matter. Many of them wrote, “Parents would have been fuming, I wud. She’s trying to do what Catherine did when she went 2 Sarah’s vigil, they hardly even new Catherine was there, that’s how it’s really done,  but Catherine cares, that other 1 doesn’t,” along with, “MM’s lack of basic common sense is amazing.  Most people would have the good sense to not use the memorial site of a national tragedy as an opportunity for self promotion, but not MM.  She goes for it & it backfires, big.”

British Royal News: Should Meghan Have Stayed Home?

Another critic wrote, “I totally agree with everything you have said about MM. My heart and prayers go out to the parents & families of these children & two adults. Tragic and sickening. Our elected officials need to FINALLY DO SOMETHING!”

So far Meghan Markle herself has not made any comments about the criticism although at this point, it’s doubtful that she will.

  • Meghan Markle paid her respects to those inocent children that died in a horrific death at such a young age ,an she shouldn't be judged how she did it ,her an Harry have children of their own ,as well as I do ,if I had away to just get up an go an pay my respects I would've done the same thing ,by the grace of God ,an one Nation under god we need to come together ,an help the mentally sick ,an not let it be easy to purchase guns to them ,it's the one behind the gun ,not the gun ...

    • Outrageous behavior once again. MM should not have flown to Texas. She made a mockery of a horrific tragedy. The only rationale given: MM is a Mother. Millions and millions of women all over
      the world are mothers. MM’s action was simply a publicity stunt, yet another action of a delusional woman that has an overinflated opinion of herself. She merely wants to portray herself as a leader in one of her many causes. This time it’s guns, death and grieving parents. More importantly is her desire to be considered the only royal kind enough to acknowledge the recent tragedy in Texas. She is a vile, despicable human being.

    • I think she should have left the film crew at home and then it might have looked a bit more sincere

    • Yes, you mite have but you probably wouldn't have your own photo ops there so you could publicize it!

  • She such a degrace nothing she does should surprise people at thisanymore. She is an attention Wh---...

  • She should NOT have gone. If she wanted to pay her respects, there would NOT have been a camera crew. Disrespectful and self centered

  • If MM wanted to show her respect, she should not have taken a photographer with her! What she's really saying is "Look at me! I'm showing my respect and I want to be noticed doing it. See the pictures? That's me!" Sad enough that the families are mourning their loved ones, then have this inconsiderate female taking photo opts!
    Wish she'd go back to the UK. The majority of the U SA doesn't want her and Harry here, making false claims about their abused lives. They are inconsiderate liars...

  • She went to pay her respects to the kids and the 2 teachers. Don’t criticize her for being there. Who ever is saying this you should be ashamed of yourself. And if you don’t like her keep it to yourself. Remember she’s a mother.

  • Megan went to pay her respect as a mother of small children. It hurt this whole country and world. She dressed down and had a mask. She even volunteered to serve food and bought multiple trays of food. She left before more press came and half the volunteers didn't even know it was her. Read the story of a head volunteer.

  • MM just wanted to show her respects to those who've perished. She's a mom, a human and just like the rest of us, she wanted to show her support. If princess Diana would have done that it would be ok. If Oprah did it, it would be OK,
    Don't be so judgemental. She is a lady of the people.

  • First of all, MM didn't want people to know she was there!!!! The photographers that took pictures, were ALREADY there! So, please tell me how this was a "photo op". People will steal every ounce of decency from a person's good deed by reading into something that isn't there. She did the right thing for the wrong people. Unbelievable. Get a grip people. She was being sincere and got attacked for it. SMH

  • I was really shocked to see Megan Markle paying her respects to those who had died in the terrible school shooting in America. Who on earth does she think she is? We were all shocked and deeply saddened by the shooting, but to go all the way there for a photo opportunity is just over the top publicity for herself……..not the children, but herself. I just hope she doesn’t try to take over the day that should be all about Queen Elizabeth. NOT Megan Markle.
