Tuesday night’s World Series game between the host Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays featured a group of celebrities and among them were Meghan Markle and Prince Harry via Page Six.
But after the two were shown in their front row seats along the first-base line on the official Major League Baseball broadcast and photos began circulating on social media, some were aghast to see both wearing Los Angeles Dodgers hats
Harry, although he has given up his His Royal Highness title and military titles, is still part of the royal lineage and remains fifth in line for the British crown, following his brother, Prince William, and William’s three children.
His father is the King of Canada and this court jester has a Dodgers hat on… absolutely shameful. Let’s go @BlueJays! #WANTITALL https://t.co/Q89xxJK0Rs

Canada is a sovereign country and one of 56 Commonwealth nations that have historical ties to the UK, with the British monarch serving as the official head of state.
“His father is the King of Canada and this court jester has a Dodgers hat on… absolutely shameful,” deputy chief of staff for the Ontario premier Doug Ford’s office, Cody Welton, said, resharing MLB’s photo of the couple on X.
Andrew MacDougall, once the head of communications for former prime minister Stephen Harper, said it was “thick as mince” — an old British expression to mean an unintelligent idea — because the “song of the King of Canada” should cheer for the Canadian team.
“It’s a better/cuter media story if you’re off side with your wife,” he added on X.
Podcast host Nancy Sidley also shared undated photos of Markle in a Toronto hat and suggested their photo opportunity in an L.A. hat “jinxed the Dodgers,” who would go on to lose 6-2.
Tara Greene of Toronto, meanwhile, called Markle a “traitor.”
“She got sorta famous for acting in Suits in Toronto, where she lives for 7 years and became a millionaire which led to her meeting Harry,” she posted on X.
