The Los Angeles Dodgers’ World Series contest against the Toronto Blue Jays was attended by several celebrities, including Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle.
Prince Harry attended Game 4 of the World Series at Dodger Stadium with Meghan. He wore a Dodgers cap while sitting in the front row, which sparked controversy among the Blue Jays fan base. Harry later apologized for wearing Dodgers colors, explaining that he wore the cap because he had been invited to the game by the Dodgers’ ownership.
In an interview with CTV News, Harry said, “Firstly, I would like to apologize to Canada for wearing it. Secondly, I was under duress. There wasn’t much choice. When you’re missing a lot of hair on top, and you’re sitting under flood lights, you’ll take any hat that’s available.”
However, many baseball fans were not convinced by his apology. Social media reactions included comments such as:
– Evan (@torontosports67): “Can we not give this man the time of day and show some backbone for once.”
– EP (@xxEP27xx): “Apology not accepted.”
– Robert Noble (@gcca): “Forgiven for doing the Canadian thing: saying you’re sorry. But he was in the LA Dodgers’ owners box, so there is that.”
– LKM (@TheDecemberX): “This dude could mess up a cup of black coffee.”
– Deborah Morgan Bush (@dbushrn): “What! 😳 Duress! Please stop thinking Canadians are dumb!”
After apologizing for wearing the Dodgers cap, Harry wore a Blue Jays hat during his interview as a gesture of support for the Canadian team. “I’m going to wear this from now on,” he said.
While Prince Harry pledged his allegiance to the Blue Jays, his wife Meghan, a Los Angeles native, remains a die-hard Dodgers fan. After the Dodgers successfully defended their World Series title against the Blue Jays in the best-of-seven series, Meghan celebrated the win with her friend Mckee Zajfen. In a clip shared by the former actress, Meghan jumped in celebration and kissed Harry, who appeared less enthusiastic, likely disappointed that the Blue Jays were unable to break their World Series drought.
