Meghan & Harry's Insta Handle Kinda Belonged to Someone Else FirstIn all the excitement about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle launching their royal Instagram…????It seems one thing was overlooked by the public… somebody else had the @SussexRoyal first…????And the guy says Insta took it away from him without even asking first.????55-year-old Kevin Keiley is a driving instructor in the UK, and he tells BBC Radio 1’s Newsbeat he’s “flattered but annoyed” about the whole thing.????And even though Instagram says it gave Harry and Meghan the handle to “avoid digital squatting, Keiley wasn’t just trying to grab the name before anyone else could. ????He had it for about three years, and it meant something to him.????Keiley lives in West Sussex, and his favorite soccer team is Reading FC, whose nickname is the Royals.????And he found out about it in a jokey text from his son -- and that neither the royals nor Instagram reached out to him about it.????For now, Keiley is still holding on to the handle on Twitter, recently writing: “This is the original and only Sussexroyal. We talk about supporting Reading FC.”????Well, the least Harry and Meghan could do is send him a nice fruit basket. | |||||
