The Social Media Disappearance
In a curious turn of events that has captivated royal watchers and celebrity gossip fans alike, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, were digitally erased from social media coverage of a lavish birthday celebration. The incident occurred after Kim Kardashian shared a series of photographs from her mother Kris Jenner's 70th birthday party, only for the royal couple to be conspicuously absent from the final selection.
A Star-Studded Affair at a Tech Titan's Mansion
The exclusive event took place over the weekend at the opulent $165 million Beverly Hills mansion owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. The party was a magnet for A-list celebrities, with Prince Harry, 41, and Meghan Markle, 44, counted among the many high-profile guests in attendance. Fans initially spotted the couple in the background of some images but were left perplexed when they subsequently vanished not only from Kim's posts but from Kris Jenner's own social media tribute as well.
The Reason Behind the Vanishing Act
The mystery has now been solved. According to a report from People magazine, the reason for their disappearance was a matter of personal privacy. The couple, who married in 2018, did not agree that pictures of them taken inside the private bash could be publicly shared. It has been revealed that they formally opted for 'no' on a photo consent form distributed at the event. This direct instruction prompted the immediate removal of the images featuring the Sussexes from the social media pages of both Kim and Kris Kardashian Jenner.
The Daily Mail has confirmed that it reached out to representatives for Prince Harry and Meghan, as well as to Kim Kardashian, for further comment on the situation, but did not receive an immediate response.
