Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Criticized and Praised for California Wildfire Relief Efforts

The couple distributed supplies and supported victims through their Archewell Foundation, drawing both backlash and commendation for their involvement.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry participated in wildfire relief efforts in Los Angeles, working with World Central Kitchen to distribute food and supplies to victims and first responders.
Their actions were praised by José Andrés, founder of World Central Kitchen, who highlighted their genuine commitment to helping those in need despite public scrutiny.
Critics, including actress Justine Bateman, accused the couple of engaging in a 'photo op' and labeled them as 'disaster tourists,' questioning their motives.
The couple has reportedly opened their Montecito home to friends displaced by the fires, showing additional support beyond public appearances.
Markle postponed the release of her Netflix series 'With Love, Meghan' to focus on wildfire relief, a move that sparked mixed reactions regarding her intentions.
