He broke down discussing suicide with a grieving widow in a new video, which has moved the nation,\u201d Fitzwilliams observed.<\/p>\n<p>Kate recently addressed the effects of technology on children in her essay, The Power of Human Connection in a Distracted World. <\/p>\n<p>Fitzwilliams noted the piece\u2019s striking similarity to the issues highlighted by the Sussexes during their award acceptance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCatherine\u2019s \u2018life\u2019s work\u2019 is the study of the early years and her input on how technology can be destructive is also very valuable. Surely this work, is deserving of a joint award,\u201d he shared.<\/p>\n<p>Fitzwilliams stressed that Harry and Meghan had made valuable contributions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Sussexes work to help those suffering from mental health problems is, of course, to be welcomed,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cHowever, despite their radiating positivity in their public pronouncements, Harry has savaged his family publicly which has caused a deep rift and Meghan has no contact with hers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is not behaviour which deserves to be rewarded, especially as the only reason their pronouncements get wide coverage is their royal links,\u201d the veteran commentator declared.<\/p>\n<p>To note, the backlash came after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex received &#8220;Humanitarians of the Year&#8221; award at Project Healthy Minds&#8217; World Mental Health Day Gala on Thursday evening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Harry, Meghan face backlash for \u2018ultimate irony\u2019 as they outshine Kate, William Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":490470,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,533,2832,532,2831,7710,519,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-490469","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-kate-middleton","12":"tag-prince-of-wales","13":"tag-prince-william","14":"tag-princess-of-wales","15":"tag-royal-families","16":"tag-royal-family","17":"tag-uk-royal-family","18":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115354448718328507","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490469","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=490469"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490469\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/490470"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=490469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=490469"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=490469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
