Meghan Markle Faces Criticism for Moving Wheelchair Without Consent at Invictus Games

Meghan Markle is facing backlash after a video surfaced showing her moving a wheelchair belonging to an Invictus Games attendee without apparent permission. The incident occurred during a breakfast event with Team Canada, where Markle was seen pulling a team member's wheelchair while the woman was mid-conversation, drawing criticism for the lack of consent. Disability advocates have condemned the act as rude and disrespectful, emphasizing that wheelchairs are an extension of personal space for users. Critics expressed that Markle's actions highlight a lack of understanding regarding proper etiquette when interacting with individuals with disabilities. The controversy has overshadowed the Invictus Games, which honor wounded veterans, and sparked a broader discussion about awareness and respect for disabled individuals. Amid this, Markle also delivered a heartfelt introduction for Prince Harry at the opening ceremony of the Games, which has been largely overshadowed by the negative reaction to her earlier actions.
