London - Harry and Meghan were embroiled in a fresh hypocrisy row after it emerged they took their third gas-guzzling private jet trip in little more than a week.
Experts said it would cost more than £20 000 to hire for a one-way flight, Harry’s fourth on a private jet in a month, which took off from Farnborough Airport in Hampshire. The flight came just two days after the eco-warrior couple flew home by private jet from Ibiza after a six-night break celebrating Meghan’s 38th birthday. There, they stayed in a "billionaires’ playground" of luxury mansions costing up to £120 000 a week, with villas including a chef, waiter and personal driver.
The three-storey property features an Olympic-size pool and comes with a house manager, chef and waitress and a yoga teacher and personal trainer can also be arranged. But their trip to the French Riviera is estimated to have created a carbon footprint of more than three tons – producing seven times more carbon emissions per person than a commercial flight. Their earlier trip to Ibiza is believed to have had a footprint of more than four tons. The carbon footprint – the amount of carbon dioxide released as a direct result of an activity – of an average person in the UK is 13 tons a year.
