Royal Family LIVE: Harry and Meghan 'won't endorse a US candidate'

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle “won’t endorse a US candidate” and will remain neutral in the upcoming US presidential election, it’s been reported by The Telegraph.

The pair’s Archewell Foundation issued a statement on the upcoming elections earlier this week, which read: “Voting is not just a right; it’s a fundamental way to influence the fate of our communities. At The Archewell Foundation, we recognise that civic engagement, no matter one’s political party, is at the heart of a more just and equitable world.”

Before she married into the Royal Family, Meghan described Donald Trump as “misogynistic” and “divisive” – to which he responded via a video that he was “no fan” of hers. He also wished “a lot of luck to Harry because he’s going to need it”.

Before the 2020 presidential race, Meghan and Harry appeared in a video urging people to vote. In the video, Harry said that they should “reject hate speech” – whilst Meghan also labelled the 2020 presidential race as the “most important election of our lifetime”.

Buckingham Palace later spoke out and distanced themselves from Harry’s comment. They claimed that as he was no longer a working royal, the comments were made in a “personal capacity”. One palace insider was said to have claimed he had “crossed the line”.
