**Navy Seals CEO’s Message to Meghan Sparks Controversy**

Meghan found herself at the center of a storm after the Navy Seals CEO delivered a scathing message following her appearance at a military event orchestrated by WME, leaving her uninvited for future engagements.

The request for Meghan's participation in the military event was not as straightforward as it seemed.

WME agency had to negotiate a set of conditions on behalf of Meghan and Harry with the Navy Seals Foundation.

The royal couple graced the grand opening of the Navy Seals Foundation's warrior fitness program West Coast Facility on Wednesday, receiving praise from the Foundation's CEO, Robin King, who exclusively shared insights with People magazine.

King highlighted Meghan and Harry's thorough preparation and knowledge about the Foundation and its programs.

Reports emerged suggesting that WME brokered a deal with the Navy Seals Foundation for the attendance of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

However, the arrangement only allowed them to be present for photo opportunities without any speaking engagements, microphone usage, or ribbon-cutting duties.

Their attempts to maintain a royal facade backfired, making them appear out of place.

Ironically, Harry and Meghan had cited reasons like unpaid public appearances, hospital visits, ribbon cuttings, and smiling for photos as factors leading to their exit from the royal family, yet they found themselves engaging in similar activities post-royalty.

Speculations arose questioning the authenticity of their invitation, with some suggesting that the Navy Seals Foundation's acceptance of a substantial donation from Harry and Meghan's PR team might have influenced their presence.

Critics labeled the couple as desperate attention-seekers trying to overshadow genuine royals and divert attention from ongoing legal battles.

The swift exit of the Duke and Duchess from the event fueled rumors that they were unwelcome additions, never to be invited back.

In a separate incident, Omid Scobie, a close friend and biographer of and , faced backlash for his controversial remarks about III's recent trip to Kenya.

Scobie, known for his pro-Harry and Meghan stance, criticized the monarchy's actions during the royal visit to Kenya, particularly highlighting a moment where and Queen walked on a red carpet laid over a muddy field.

Scobie's comments insinuated that the royal family was disconnected from reality, with accusations directed at King Charles, , and even the Queen.

Royal insider Richard Eden condemned Scobie's critique, emphasizing that the royal couple's actions were in line with diplomatic protocol and respect for their hosts.

He dismissed Scobie's remarks as sensationalism aimed at tarnishing the monarchy's reputation.

Eden pointed out the absurdity of expecting the King to dictate terms during his visit, highlighting the importance of cultural sensitivity and diplomatic decorum.

The incident reignited debates surrounding the scrutiny faced by and whenever they engage in public appearances, with critics like Scobie quick to pounce on any misstep.
