Prince Harry - 17th July

Prince Harry received a heroic spotlight when he was honoured with the Pat Tillman Award for Service at the ESPY. During this moment, the Duke of Sussex received a standing ovation for his remarkable contribution from several people present at the event.

Venus Williams Appeared To Snub At Harry & Meghan: Here’s Why!

The Duke of Sussex received the Pat Tillman Award at the ceremony and a standing ovation rippled through the crowd. While many of those in attendance stood up and clapped, Venus Williams appeared to snub Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Williams, who was sitting next to the prince, did not offer a single applause once after his name was announced.

While accepting the accolade, the father of two said, “I stand here not as Prince Harry, Pat Tillman Award recipient, but rather a voice on behalf of the Invictus Games Foundation and the thousands of veterans and service personnel from over 20 nations who have made the Invictus Games Foundation a reality. This award belongs to them, not to me.”

The tennis legend appeared less than impressed as she stayed seated throughout the Duke’s walk to the stage. Even when cameras panned to her during Harry’s speech, she didn’t pay much attention. This incident has created a buzz, and people are looking at it as Venus’ way of showing her displeasure at ESPN’s choice to honour Prince Harry with this award.

Furthermore, Williams’ reaction caught the eyes of numerous people, who suspected that the tennis star overlooked Sussexes at the award function. After this snubbing clip went viral, fans started reacting to it on Twitter (Now X).

One of them said, “Venus has every right to snub two frauds who are stealing awards meant for more deserving individuals.” Another one wrote, “Venus knows Harry is undeserving of this award. Pat Tillman’s mother knows it. The announcer on ESPN, Pat Mcafee, knows it too. You and I know it. Everybody knows it, even Harry; he especially knows it.”

The 39-year-old Duke was recognised for his commendable work for the Invictus Games, an initiative aimed at aiding injured and sick military personnel. However, this decision prompted severe backlash and put Harry under the spotlight. Along with Williams, Tillman’s mother, Mary also reflected on how she felt that Prince Harry was undeserving of the award.

However, ESPN defended their decision and called Harry’s work ‘a cause worth celebrating.’ For more updates on the royal family, keep following Soap Opera Daily. Also, share your opinions on this matter in the comments below!
