The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to have offered their support as UK ministers consider restricting social media for children under 16. Instead, sources say they were met with “deafening silence.”
“The lack of a response was just embarrassing for the Sussexes,” an insider claims. “They were totally snubbed.”
