‘It’s Offensive’: Prince Harry-Meghan Markle React To Justine Bateman’s ‘Disaster Tourist’ Comment Amid L.A. Wildfires

As a dedicated follower, I’m sharing that Prince Harry and I, Meghan Markle, took action to aid those affected by the wildfires in Los Angeles. However, our noble act was met with criticism from American filmmaker Justine Bateman, who labeled us as “disaster tourists.” This title came after photos of us emerged online.

At the Pasadena Convention Center, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were caught on camera distributing food and aid to victims. Later, Bateman reshared the video on X platform, criticizing the couple as opportunists, likening them to individuals who follow ambulances for personal gain, and accusing them of seeking attention or popularity from this act.

In response to the seemingly thoughtless comment, a source shared with Page Six, “It’s considered disrespectful to both Meghan and Harry that anyone would view this as just a photo opportunity.

Despite the fact that the royal couple reside 90 miles north of the city, reports suggest that Los Angeles has always been a place of familiarity for the Suits alum. The source asserts not only was she a frequent visitor, but her emotional attachment to the city runs deep, as she is deeply affected by the loss of lives and destruction there.

As per the report, they put in a considerable amount of effort and funds, as well as providing necessary supplies. Furthermore, it’s said that they spent numerous hours helping out the relief crews, even prior to being photographed by the media.
