It’s business as usual for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The Duke and Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍 are no strangers to being under fire — and it seems as though the recent blowback from Harry’s ESPY Award nod proved to be no different.
Harry, 39, was named the recipient of the 2024 ESPYs’ Pat Tillman Award for Service and is set to be honored at Thursday’s star-studded ceremony hosted by Markle’s pal, Serena Williams.

Be that as it may, the declaration didn’t agree with many, including the late legend’s mother, Mary Tillman, who hammered ESPN and guaranteed she was never counseled about the choice.
As the backfire kept on tormenting Harry, previous illustrious steward Award Harrold says that the team aren’t encountering anything they haven’t as of now.
The Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍es are “exceptionally used to the analysis, given all that is happened throughout recent years,” Harrold, who worked for Lord Charles for a very long time, solely told The Post.

“I’m sure they’ll be drowning out the outside noise by continuing with their normal and everyday life and trying not to turn on the television, or read the papers as much.”
“They’re being talked about constantly, given their profiles,” he continued.
The Duke and Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍 are “very used to the criticism,” according to former royal butler Grant Harrold
“From what I remember, Harry was always an extremely private person, so I’m not sure how he’ll feel about that, but I can imagine his way of coping with the attention is to carry on as normal,” he added on behalf of Fruity Slots.
Earlier this week, Harrold suggested that the father of two is “feeling quite sad” about the negative response to him being named as the award’s recipient.
What’s more, the former royal staffer said it’s possible Harry could decline the prestigious award.
“He’d never want to cause any upset,” Harrold said. “If he thinks that it is going to cause upset, then it is quite likely that he could decline the award . . . because he’d never want to cause any upset and it would affect him hearing about the backlash.”
Earlier this month, ESPN defended its decision to honor Harry, saying co-founding the Invictus Games and his continued work as a patron of the organization “is a cause worth celebrating.”

The award is handed out to individuals who have made significant contributions in the world, which echo the legacy of the former NFL player and US Army Ranger Pat Tillman, who enlisted after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Harry, for his part, served in the British armed forces for 10 years, including two tours of duty in Afghanistan as an Apache helicopter pilot and a forward air controller.
