Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, despite the entourage of projects that they have taken on, have not managed to ward off the criticism. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex having left the royal family, initially claiming the lack of privacy as the pivotal reason behind the move, have been chastised for what many claim as a lack of vision. However, it seems that they are determined to change the narrative this year.

After taking on two pseudo-royal trips in order to talk about their initiative to help parents, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have once again risen to the occasion on National Voter Registration Day.

Not only did the Sussexes release a statement, but went as far as to cite that voting was a "fundamental way to influence the fate of our communities."

Given that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had earlier worked on such a huge platform, netizens believed that the outcome of the US presidential elections, depending on which side chooses to favor them, may impact them greatly. And as Eric Trump went on to label them as "bad apples", their belief translated into half reality as the Sussexes seemed to have no appeal over the Republican party.

Donald Trump's son went as far as to say that he would not mind at all giving the Sussexes back to the United Kingdom, but he is doubtful anyone would want them over there. Not to mention, with Prince Harry's visa complications, and Eric Trump's refusal to go easy on him, it is going to be one heated affair. However, that did not stop the Sussexes from guiding whoever they could in the right direction to vote.
