As royal expert Peter Ford pointed out the, “sparse attendance for Prince Harry’s UN speech,” had to be humiliating.
On The Morning Show he said, “It was a very informal gathering. It was basically turn up if you like.”

He added, “Clearly a lot of people chose to not turn up. There were a lot of empty seats. They could have brought in the seat fillers just to fill those seats.”
Wow. Who goes to the UN to give a speech with low expectations? Harry does apparently.
So why in the world would Prince Harry be showing off to an empty auditorium? According to Ford, it was all for show, all for the cameras. Now that makes sense. Have Harry and Meghan done anything where they didn’t want a ton of free PR?

According to Ford, “Netflix was obviously filming all this because they want to include this in the upcoming Harry and Meghan show.” Perhaps they will use crowd scenes from Chariots of Fire to make it appear Harry had an audience?
As Ford notes, “In fact, it’s become quite a funny meme where you see what they thought it was going to be and what it actually became. All those empty seats.” In a way all those empty seats were appropriate since it was empty air that Harry spewed.
Royal Family News: Harry Called Out For Vanity
To give you an idea of how wrong-headed this charade of vanity was, Nelson Mandela’s grandson called Harry out for being a fraud. Why is that germane? Because Harry gave his speech in honor of Mandela. Reality just doesn’t get realer than that.
Of course the UN has no moral compass so why not open the gates for a phony prince to preach about things he can’t spell? If you think about it, it was a perfect match, vacuous Harry preaching to empty lecture hall.
