Prince Harry and Meghan Markle say goodbye to social media

British Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle quit social media out of frustration over racial and gender discrimination on social media sites.

The royal couple also shut down all personal and professional Facebook and Twitter channels, including just one official Instagram page.

The French news agency Agence France-Presse (AFP) quoted British media in its report as confirming that the royal couple closed their accounts on social media out of frustration with their racial and sexual prejudice.

According to the report, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle closed their personal and professional Facebook and Twitter accounts, which had millions of followers.

The report quoted a British newspaper as saying that the royal couple did not want to create professional social media accounts for their social organization Archie.

The couple said goodbye to social media due to their hateful tendencies, including racial and sexual prejudice, against them on Facebook and Twitter.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle both announced in April 2020 that they would not provide any British media interviews or any other kind of information before saying goodbye to social media.

The royal couple announced in April 2020 that they would not share any information with Britain’s Daily Mail, The Sun, The Mirror and The Express.

Prior to the announcement, Meghan Markle had filed lawsuits against The Mail on Sunday and Prince Harry had filed lawsuits against The Sun and The Mirror.

The couple had filed lawsuits against British newspapers for spreading false information and making false claims about them, including hearings against Meghan Markle’s The Mail on Sunday, and the case is still pending. ۔

Prince Harry has made harsh statements about the British media and social media on various occasions and has repeatedly claimed that the British media is at the forefront of spreading misinformation about his wife.

Prince Harry has in the past cited British media coverage as one of the reasons for his late mother Diana’s death and failure in love.

Prince Harry formally relinquished his monarchy in March 2020, along with his wife, and initially resided in Canada and later in the United States, where he now resides in the United States with his wife and children.

After relinquishing their royal status, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are now seen doing podcast shows for the music streaming website Spotify, and will soon be making movies for Netflix.

He has also set up a charity in the name of his son Archie, as well as an organization called Sussex Royal, and his Instagram account is still active.
