Netizens On Prince Harry Jogging In Santa Barbara Amid Security Concerns: 'You Aren't In Any Danger'
Prince Harry raised eyebrows due to his most recent public sighting.
The Duke of Sussex was spotted for the first time amid the resurfaced issue surrounding his daughter Liibet's name. He went for a solo jog in Santa Barbara wearing a beanie and a puffer, which prompted some critics to criticize him because he did it amid his purported security concerns.

"The perpetually terrified, security conscious prince goes for a jog alone...this answers several questions," one wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
"[1]You know you aren't in any danger. [2]Your constant reference to being hounded like your mother is a fantasy. [3] No one sees you as important. [4]Doing car park back grid photo op's won't help your credibility. [5] Running with your phone in your hand is just ridiculously stupid. [6]You need to work on your calves. They look like your wife's."

Several netizens seemingly agreed with the online user who shared a snap of Prince Harry during his solo jog.
"This is exactly the kind of picture needed to debunk Harry's claims of the need for extra security. *(no one was triggered by flashbulbs in the snapping of Backgrid's photos)," one commented with cameras and face with tears of joy emojis.
"Prince insignificant!" another added. A third person wrote, "Sorry Harry, you're not Princess Diana. No one is hounding you; they are avoiding you like the plague. Time for you to jog on."
"Haha totally agree love number 6 haha #HarryandMeghanAreLosers it's all an act for the cameras, one day soon, he will very much be made aware he was definitely 'sloppy seconds' in London summer 2016 allegedly haha lots of golden receipts from 'the Soho crowd,'" a fourth user opined.

It was not the first time Prince Harry received an intense backlash for his outing. He and his wife, Meghan Markle, went on a family vacation in Costa Rica before Christmas, and their reported sighting received a similar response. However, their fans rallied to support them.
"Can't we leave Harry and Meghan alone already, especially their children, and using his dead grandmother to attack him is grim," one wrote.
"My analysis is that you should leave Harry and Meghan alone. They moved to the U.S. to escape second-rate journalism like this. Find some proper news to report," another stated.

"Do you guys not have something more important to say[?] Please leave Harry and his family alone," a third Sussex supporter suggested.
Rafe Heydel-Mankoo, a historian and broadcaster, previously called Prince Harry's security battle against RAVEC in the U.K. "nonsense."
According to him, Markle's husband was getting protection whenever he needed it, and the trouble was his alleged "inflated impression of what he needs and his importance."
