Prince Harry and Brooklyn Beckham, David Beckham’s eldest son, have been labeled as “sitting ducks” by columnist Jan Moir.<\/p>\n
Moir criticised both Harry, 40, and Brooklyn, 26, for their privileged upbringings and perceived ingratitude.<\/p>\n
Both men, one a Royal and the other the son of a renowned English soccer player, are seen as having distanced themselves from their families \u2014 Harry stepping away from Royal duties in 2020 and Brooklyn seemingly distancing himself from his family.<\/p>\n
While many attribute these familial rifts to the influence of their wives, Moir suggests that the similarities between the two men also play a part.<\/p>\n
As quoted by the Scottish Daily Express, Moir delivered a harsh eight-word summary of Harry and Brooklyn, “Grown men who failed to find a vocation.”<\/p>\n
In her Daily Mail column, she described Harry and Brooklyn as “two lost boys of the age; a pair of wet wipes with no real purpose or role in life, grown men who failed to find a vocation or a position, a telling degree of personal success or the ability to stand on their own two feet”.<\/p>\n
The columnist also said that their “nepo connections” left them “showered with golden opportunities,” however they allowed themselves to be persuaded that they had been “wronged, slighted and overlooked” by their families.<\/p>\n
Writing for the Daily Mail, Moir said: “The hurt they have caused to those they once loved is immeasurable.”<\/p>\n
Both Harry and Brooklyn reside in America with their spouses, creating both physical and emotional distance from their UK-based families.<\/p>\n
