‘Hypocrites’ Meghan and Harry fly home on a private jet after speaking at climate change event

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been criticised for flying home on a private jet to their California mansion after attending a star-studded event that called for more action on climate change. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex spoke at the Global ­Citizen Live concert in New York where they demanded new eco laws to halve US emissions by 2030. The Sun reported the pair then flew home on a Dassault Falcon 2000 jet to their mansion in Montecito, California. “I do think this is hypocrisy. I’m sure there were plenty of scheduled flights," Royal author Penny Junor told The Sun. “I do not understand why they are behaving as if they are superstars. “His father has been known to take scheduled flights. His brother takes scheduled flights. “This totally muddies the waters of their climate message. They are shooting themselves in the foot by taking private flights.”
