Celebrities defend Meghan Markle and Harry after criticism for their private plane trips
Harry and Meghan's controversial luxury vacation: four private planes in 11 days
Harry and Meghan choose Ibiza on their first family vacation
In the open war, although undeclared, between the Dukes of Cambridge and Sussex, every gesture counts. If this week the criticisms have focused on the decision of Enrique and Meghan to take four private planes in just 11 days after giving talks on climate change, Guillermo and Kate have chosen to go with their children to Scotland on a one-way flight 'low cost' company.
The gesture, rather than being understood as a good work, has been interpreted in the United Kingdom as another challenge among the brothers, who do not hesitate to use the press whenever they can to launch a new blow into their cold war. Prince William, Kate Middleton and their children embarked yesterday at 08:45 in the morning on a flight departing from Norwich airport to Scotland, where they are expected to visit the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh.
The tickets to make the journey in the FlyBe company would have hardly cost around 80 euros and, according to one of the passengers contacted by the 'Daily Mail', nobody noticed his presence. "They were sitting right at the beginning of the plane. I cover this route often and the truth is that nobody expected it. No one knew they were there, but after a while I realized that Kate's mother was sitting a couple of ranks in front of me, "he explained in the British newspaper.
During this week Prince Enrique and Meghan Markle have been criticized for their decision to take four private planes for their flights to Ibiza and Nice, where they went to visit the castle valued at more than 16 million euros from Elton John. Only during that round trip, his private plane left a carbon footprint of at least 8.4 tons of CO2, while the average in the UK per person per year is 5.4 tons.
The singer has assured that they should not be criticized because it was he who paid the costs of the journey and the environmental impact in order to ensure that they received "the high level of security they needed", an argument that has not convinced everyone and which for some has been discredited after the trip of the Dukes of Cambridge.
"It makes no sense what has been said that Enrique and Meghan did it for security reasons. The royal family, including Princess Diana, has been catching low-budget flights for years. The fact that Guillermo and Kate have This fact also proves that it is possible, that there was no problem on board, and that even if there had been, there would be security personnel to protect them. It has been a cunning move on their part, "says Robert Johnson, author of Prince Charles's biography.
The relationship between both marriages has cooled since the moment Meghan Markle joined the family, and at this time the only bridge that seems to be between the two couples is the friendship that Kate and Enrique have. The price of the flight taken by the Dukes of Sussex could go up to 22,000 euros per way and it is even speculated that the queen may require her grandson to make public if it was really the singer who paid for the trip.
Buckingham Palace has not wanted to comment on the trips made by the family in their private leisure time, but Isabel II has always demanded that her family members abide by certain codes of conduct that include transparency about those who give them gifts .
