Meghan Markle recently took her advocacy for social media accountability to Geneva, but the event was overshadowed by a rather embarrassing turnout. Unveiling the Lost Screen Memorial, aimed at shining a light on online abuse affecting children, the Duchess of Sussex found herself facing a sea of criticism instead of supporters. The emotional installation featured illuminated boxes representing young lives lost to digital violence, but social media’s focus quickly shifted to the crowd size—or lack thereof.
Observers noted that the atmosphere felt more like a quiet gathering of random passersby than a robust show of support for such an important cause. Critics wasted no time making snarky comments online, with many questioning whether Meghan still had the star power she once wielded as a royal. One user quipped that it looked like she attracted a group of people who just happened to be walking by rather than dedicated fans eager to hear her message.
Adding to the drama, Prince Harry was notably absent from the event, raising eyebrows and questions about their joint advocacy efforts. Despite the online trolling, sources close to the Sussexes insist they’re committed to their mission of protecting children from online toxicity. So, while the crowd may have been small, their message about social media accountability remains as loud as ever—at least in theory!
