Artist Dan Llywelyn Hall unveiled two new royal portraits of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in abstract form, which has drawn mixed reactions from the public.
Starr is a News Writer for InStyle. She has worked in pop culture and entertainment since 2017 and has been with InStyle since 2024.Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may have stepped back from their senior royal duties, but the couple is still subject to questionable painted portraits, much like those before them.
Harry's painting sees him against a teal painted backdrop with dark sunken eyes, full lips, and an orange-red beard. In the painting, he wears what appears to be a beret and an overcoat, and his rosy red cheeks and flaming orange hair dominate the color palette of the painting.Markle's portrait, meanwhile, sees her as a blue lady—literally.
Hall, however, does not appear to be bothered by the backlash that his work has received. “It seemed that these figures caught on the knife edge of public opinion were ideal for drawing comparisons from distant monarchs–like the exiled princes and princesses of the past, that lurk in the background but are still irrevocably tied to the job," he said.
