Piers Morgan has launched a fierce attack on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as the couple prepares for their upcoming four-day tour of Colombia. The former Good Morning Britain presenter didn’t hold back, labeling the Duke and Duchess of Sussex as a “greedy two-faced pair” and questioning their right to undertake such international visits.
Morgan’s Scathing Critique
In his regular newspaper column, Morgan expressed his frustration over the couple’s continued global engagements despite their departure from royal duties. “Why is this being allowed to happen?” he wrote in The Sun. “Meghan and Harry aren’t real royals these days. They don’t do any actual duties for the institution which conferred their titles on them—they just line their pockets with cash in America by constantly trashing their families, and the monarchy, in the media.”
Morgan further argued that the couple should not be permitted to conduct what he described as “quasi-official visits,” emphasizing that both King Charles and Prince William are reportedly “livid” about the Colombia tour. He called for decisive action from the monarch, urging King Charles to “strip Meghan and Harry of their titles” and instruct Palace officials to discourage foreign governments from issuing formal tour invitations to the couple.
Harry and Meghan’s Colombia Tour: A Controversial Move
The upcoming Colombia tour has sparked significant controversy, with critics like Morgan questioning the Sussexes’ intentions and the legitimacy of their visits. Since stepping back from their royal roles in 2020, Harry and Meghan have faced scrutiny over their public appearances and ongoing use of their royal titles.
Morgan’s comments also come on the heels of another significant departure from the Sussexes’ team. Harry’s chief of staff, Josh Kettler, resigned after just three months in the role. Kettler, a seasoned PR expert, had been brought on board to “guide Harry through his next phase” but has now stepped down in what sources describe as a “mutual” decision.
Kettler’s departure is the latest in a string of exits from Harry and Meghan’s team since their move to California. The couple, who reside in Montecito, has seen numerous staff members leave, leading to speculation about the work environment within their organization.
A former employee offered some insight, stating, “What may be most telling is that the entire time I worked there, I don’t think I heard a single current or former employee on their staff say they would take the job again if given the chance.” The source added that many of those who have left were seasoned professionals with experience working for demanding bosses in high-pressure environments.
As Prince Harry and Meghan Markle prepare for their Colombia tour, the criticism from figures like Piers Morgan highlights the ongoing controversy surrounding their roles and actions. With their continued use of royal titles and international engagements under scrutiny, the couple remains a focal point of public and media attention, as debates about their place in the modern monarchy persist.
