A royal expert has suggested that Prince Harry should "do the honourable thing" and decline a "controversial" award nomination.
Richard Eden, the diary editor for the Daily Mail, shared his thoughts on the Daily Mail's Palace Confidential podcast on YouTube alongside fellow royal commentators Rebecca English and Charlotte Griffiths.
Prince Harry is in line to receive the Pat Tillman Award for Service, an accolade named after former NFL player Pat Tillman, who left his sporting career to serve in the US military following 9/11 but was tragically killed by friendly fire in 2004.
Eden said: "I just think for once, Harry needs to do the honourable thing and you know, just say no; turn it down." He added: "I've written for a piece for Mail+ in my newsletter this week is that Harry should say, 'you know what, actually, I won't accept this because the last thing the organisers of this event want is this kind of controversy'." He further commented: "You know, it's a great award that's meant to be honouring someone who's put service before personal gain, and it really isn't appropriate for Harry to get it," reports the Express.
