Piers Morgan has slammed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for ‘upstaging’ Kate Middleton and Prince William with their Netflix announcement

Piers Morgan has slammed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, calling them “spoilt brats” for allegedly timing the release of their new show’s promo just “100 minutes” after Princess Kate shared an update on her cancer battle.

In his latest Uncensored column, the former Good Morning Britain firebrand remarked: “The gap was only 100 minutes, but it might as well have been 100 light years.”

He pointed out that Princess Kate had posted a heartfelt video about her cancer journey at 4.29pm on Monday, while Netflix dropped a teaser for the Sussexes’ new polo documentary series at 6.09pm the same day.

Piers, who is 59, added: “Of course, it may just have been a stupendous coincidence but if you believe that, then I’ve got some very dodgy old Ford Cortinas to sell you.

He didn’t hold back in highlighting the stark contrast between the two Royal couples, stating: “One thing is indisputable, and it’s that the separate announcements perfectly encapsulated the very different lives of these two couples now.”

He lavished praise on Kate and William, contrasting their approach with that of Harry and Meghan, saying: “One, featuring the heir to the throne and his health-stricken wife, was an extraordinarily moving, humble, and profoundly inspiring insight into what it’s like to have a life-threatening illness when you have a loving young family, regardless of wealth or status.”

In stark contrast, his critique of Meghan and Harry was harsh, as he continued: “The other, featuring two spoiled brat renegades who ditched royal duty and service for a life of self-enriching Hollywood glitz and glamour, was a nauseatingly ill-timed self-promotional plug for a series about a sport so elite only millionaires can play it.”

“Regardless of whether Meghan and Harry deliberately rushed out their promo to try to spoil Kate and William’s big announcement, or just to capitalise on the megaton-sized global attention it instantly received, it landed like a plop of unwanted pigeon poop on a pavement.”

This comes after Kate shared personal footage of her family, showcasing her husband Prince William and their children – George, Charlotte and Louis. In the heartfelt three-minute video, Kate courageously confirmed that she has “finally completed” her preventative chemotherapy treatment following a tough nine-month period.

The Princess of Wales expressed it was a “relief” to have reached the end of her cancer journey as her voice could be heard discussing her ongoing road to recovery, and “remaining cancer free”.

In the emotional update, Kate seemed to be looking towards the future, stating: “I am however looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can. Despite all that has gone before, I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life.”

She also extended a heartfelt message to fellow cancer fighters, stating: “William and I are so grateful for the support we have received and have drawn great strength from all those who are helping us at this time. Everyone’s kindness, empathy and compassion has been truly humbling.”

“To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey I remain with you, side by side, hand in hand. Out of darkness, can come light, so let that light shine bright.”
