Eugenie Bouchard was seemingly in disbelief after learning that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were not allowed to board Air Force One with President Joe Biden following Queen Elizabeth's funeral.
Bouchard is currently on a comeback trail, having battled through a 17-month shoulder injury which ultimately required surgery. The 29-year-old made her return to the court last August, at the WTA 125 tournament in Vancouver.
Bouchard recently took to social media to share a screenshot of a news article which claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were denied access to Air Force One alongside President Joe Biden after Queen Elizabeth's funeral. The Canadian accompanied the image with a caption suggesting that the news could not be "real."

Reportedly, the White House declined the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's request to accompany President Biden for their return to their home in California.
"This can't be real," Bouchard captioned her Instagram story.
A look at Eugenie Bouchard's 2023 season so far
Eugenie Bouchard's 2023 season has been disappointing so far. She kicked off the year at the ASB Classic, where she managed to defeat Ann Li in the first round of the qualifiers. However, her journey was abruptly cut short as she was compelled to withdraw from the tournament due to a severe case of food poisoning.
Bouchard lost 6-3, 1-6, 6-4 against Ashlyn Krueger in the Australian Open qualifiers. The Canadian then secured a spot in the main draw of the Madrid Open on the back of a tenacious performance in two qualifying rounds. She triumphed over Dayana Yastremska in the first round of the main draw before losing to Martina Trevisan in the second.
The former World No. 5's campaign at the Italian Open came to an end during the qualifiers. She managed to bounce back and reach the quarterfinals of the WTA 125 tournament in Florence, but was compelled to retire midway through the match against Sara Errani.
Eugenie Bouchard kicked off her grasscourt season at the German Open. She emerged victorious against Kimberly Birrell but then faced defeat in the second round of the qualifiers against Vera Zvonreva.
The Canadian's Wimbledon campaign was a non-starter as she failed to secure a spot in the main draw of the grasscourt Major. Bouchard, who reached the Wimbledon final in 2014 at the age of 20, would be hoping to produce better results in the second half of the ongoing season.
