While Meghan herself did not address this, a source close to the duchess told the Daily Mail that Meghan was unable to wear a poppy as they are not widely available in the States,<\/a> unlike in Commonwealth countries.<\/p>\n

This is despite the fact she has worn one in years gone by, including since living in America.<\/p>\n

Meghan received plenty of criticism online for not wearing a poppy over the Remembrance weekend, with Express.co.uk<\/a> launching a poll on Tuesday asking fans whether they think Meghan should apologise for not wearing one.<\/a><\/p>\n

The results, gathered on Thursday, showed that 83% of those who did the poll voted yes, agreeing that the duchess should apologise for her lack of a poppy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A total of 15% believed that Meghan shouldn\u2019t apologise, while 2% were unsure what the duchess should do.<\/p>\n

While Meghan didn\u2019t wear a poppy, she did put up a tribute on November 11<\/a> for Veterans Day.<\/p>\n

Sharing a video of her husband in Afghanistan running off towards action in a TV interview, alongside a recent picture of Prince Harry with a fellow war veteran, the duchess wrote on Instagram<\/a>: \u201cAs my husband says, \u2018Once served. Always serving.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you to all who served, sacrificed, and continue to serve. Honoring you on Veterans Day. And every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
