Former "Top Gear" presenter Jeremy Clarkson on Monday apologised for a much-criticised column he wrote in The Sun tabloid saying he hated Prince Harry's wife Meghan.

Clarkson, 62, wrote last month that he dreamed of the day when Meghan "is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant 'shame!' and throw lumps of excrement at her".

The piece triggered a wave of protest and became the UK Independent Press Standards Organisation's most complained-about article.

Harry himself said in a television interview broadcast on January 8 that it was "horrific and... hurtful and cruel towards my wife".

He also said it encouraged misogyny around the world.

Clarkson wrote on Instagram: "I really am sorry... This is me putting my hands up. It's a mea culpa with bells on."

In the column commenting on Harry and Meghan's Netflix documentary series, Clarkson said of Meghan: "I hate her on a cellular level" 
 
Clarkson gained global fame by presenting the popular BBC motoring show "Top Gear" but was dropped as host in 2015 for assaulting a male producer.&nbsp;

He now makes a similar show for Amazon, as well as a documentary series about farming.

Clarkson wrote in his apology that he sent his column to The Sun without reading it out to anyone &nbsp;-- as he usually does -- and only realised later that what he wrote was "horrible".&nbsp;

"I abhor violence against women," he added but conceded the column "seemed to be advocating for just that".&nbsp;

Known for his provocative columns often espousing right-wing political views, the presenter also claimed that he had been referring to a scene from the "Game of Thrones" series.

But he said he forgot to specify this.

The Sun in late December said it was "sincerely sorry" for the publication and had removed the column from its website and archive. 
 
Harry and Meghan said on Christmas Eve that the tabloid had not been in touch with them directly, slamming the newspaper's statement on its website as "nothing more than a PR stunt".

Clarkson said Monday he emailed the couple on Christmas Day to apologise, telling them "the language I'd used in my column was disgraceful and that I was profoundly sorry".

He vowed to try to be "vigilant" in future, saying he may switch to writing about becoming a grandfather.

Former 'Top Gear' host Jeremy Clarkson apologises for Meghan column

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reacted to 'Top Gear' host Jeremy Clarkson's public apology for the offensive article he wrote about Markle in December 2022. Clarkson issued an apology via a statement on Instagram and expressed remorse for writing the controversial article that was published in the UK tabloid The Sun. In his statement, Clarkson stated he had reached out to both Harry and Meghan on Christmas Day.&nbsp; 
 
However, a spokesperson of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex has revealed that the former TV host had only reached out to Harry. In a statement shared with the media, the spokesperson said, "On December 25, 2022, Mr Clarkson wrote solely to Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex. The contents of his correspondence were marked Private and Confidential." 
 
"While a new public apology has been issued today by Mr Clarkson, what remains to be addressed is his long-standing pattern of writing articles that spread hate rhetoric, dangerous conspiracy theories, and misogyny," it continued. "Unless each of his other pieces were also written "in a hurry," as he states, it is clear that this is not an isolated incident shared in haste, but rather a series of articles shared in hate." 
 
Clarkson's apology was shared on social media on Monday where he apologised for writing an article of hate about Meghan Markle.&nbsp; 
 
"One of the strange things I've noticed in recent times is that whenever an MP or a well-known person is asked to apologise for something, no matter how heartfelt or profound that apology may be, it's never enough for the people who called for it in the first place." 
 
"So I'm going to try and buck the trend this morning with an apology for the things I said in a Sun column recently about Meghan Markle. I really am sorry. All the way from the balls of my feet to the follicles on my head. This is me putting my hands up. It's a mea culpa with bells on," he wrote. 
 
"Usually, I read what I've written to someone else before filing, but I was home alone on that fateful day, and in a hurry. So when I'd finished, I just pressed send," he continued. "And then, when the column appeared the next day, the land mine exploded." 
 
The former 'Top Gear' host claimed he felt 'sick' to see th horrible story on print and compared it to a scene in 'Game Of Thrones.' "So it looked like I was actually calling for revolting violence to rain down on Meghan's head." (In the original article, Clarkson wrote, "At night, I'm unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, 'Shame!' and throw lumps of excrement at her.")

"I therefore wrote to everyone who works with me saying how sorry I was and then on Christmas morning, I e-mailed Harry and Meghan in California to apologise to them too," Clarkson's Instagram statement added. "I said I was baffled by what they had been saying on TV but that the language I'd used in my column was disgraceful and that I was profoundly sorry."

"So can I move on now? Not sure. It's hard to be interesting and vigilant at the same time… But I promise you this, I will try," he concluded.

The original article was published on December 16 and sparked massive backlash. According to BBC, more than 6000 complaints were made to press regulator IPSO about the piece. The article was deleted post the backlash.

Meghan Markle, Prince Harry respond to Jeremy Clarkson's public apology

Prince Harry's much-awaited exclusive autobiography 'Spare' which has been released on the stands of bookstores worldwide is driving massive sales. The book release comes after six hours docuseries of 'Harry and Meghan'. Watch to know more.

Prince Harry's memoir breaks UK sales record

Among the many revelations made in his memoir 'Spare', Prince Harry seemingly has also addressed the rumour that has plagued the loyal family for years. Harry has for the first time talked about the long-standing 'joke' on how he is not the biological son of King Charles.&nbsp; 
 
In his book 'Spare' which hit stands on January 10, Prince Harry has recalled how King Charles himself would 'joke' about not being Harry's father during his childhood.&nbsp; 
 
"'Who knows if I'm really the Prince of Wales? Who knows if I'm even your real father? Maybe your real father is in Broadmoor, darling boy,'" Harry wrote about his father. "Pa liked telling stories, and this was one of the best in his repertoire," Harry added.&nbsp;

Harry recalled that his father would "laugh and laugh" about the rumour, he himself found it to be "a remarkable unfunny joke, given the rumour circulating just then that my actual father was one of Mummy's former lovers: Major James Hewitt." 
 
The late Princess Diana had admitted during her 1995 interview that she had an affair with Hewitt while she was still married to King Charles.&nbsp; 
 
"One cause of this rumour was Major Hewitt's flaming ginger hair, but another cause was sadism," Harry wrote in his memoir. "Tabloid readers were delighted by the idea that the younger child of Prince Charles wasn't the child of Prince Charles. They couldn't get enough of this 'joke,' for some reason. Maybe it made them feel better about their lives that a young prince's life was laughable." 
 
Prince Harry put to rest the rumour and clarified, "Never mind that my mother didn't meet Major Hewitt until long after I was born, the story was simply too good to drop."&nbsp; 
 
The rumour was in fact addressed and refuted by Hewithh himself during a 2002 interview.&nbsp; 
 
"There really is no possibility whatsoever that I am Harry's father. I can absolutely assure you that I am not," he said at the time. "Admittedly the red hair is similar to mine and people say we look alike. I have never encouraged these comparisons and although I was with Diana for a long time I must state once and for all that I'm not Harry's father. When I first met Diana, Harry was already a toddler," he noted. 
 
Prince Harry's memoir 'Spare' has made several shocking revelations. Harry has claimed that he was assaulted by his older brother Prince William over Meghan Markle, he has called Queen consort Camilla a 'villain' and admitted that he grew uncomfortable after watching his wife Meghan Markle's 'love scenes' in 'Suits'.&nbsp;

UK: British royal family drama continues, Prince Harry's memoir, 'Spare', set to release on Tuesday

Prince Harry and his memoir 'Spare'&nbsp;are currently the hottest topics on the internet right now. Among other shocking details, the Duke revealed the incident that prompted him to seek therapy. In his book, Harry&nbsp;recalled the heated conversation with his wife Meghan after he "snapped" at her.&nbsp;

Addressing the matter,&nbsp;the 38-year-old Duke of Sussex wrote via US Weekly:&nbsp;"Maybe the wine went to my head. Maybe the weeks of battling the press had worn me down. "For some reason, when the conversation took an unexpected turn, I became touchy," 
 
Harry shares that Meghan did something that he "took the wrong way" due to a cultural difference and a language barrier. 
 
"I was also just overly sensitive that night. I thought, Why’s she having a go at me?&nbsp;I snapped at her and spoke to her harshly and cruelly," Harry wrote before adding, "As the words left my mouth, I could feel everything in the room come to a stop. The gravy stopped bubbling, and the molecules of air stopped orbiting. Even Nina Simone seemed to pause." 
 
After a gap of 15 minutes, the couple, who share son Archie and daughter Lilibet, finally talked about the heated exchange in their bedroom. 
 
"She was calm, but said in a quiet, level tone that, 'she would never stand for being spoken to like that'.&nbsp;'I nodded'. She wanted to know where it came from," Harry wrote. 
 
In the book, he also revealed that Meghan said she would never tolerate anything like this ever again in the future.&nbsp; 
 
"Where did you ever hear a man speak like that to a woman?" Did you overhear adults speaking that way when you were growing up? Meghan asked Harry, who replied, "Yes." 
 
"She wasn’t going to raise children in an atmosphere of anger or disrespect. She laid it all out, super-clear," wrote Harry.&nbsp; 
 
Furthermore, Harry stated that his anger definitely came from deep inside and after this incident, he finally went for therapy.&nbsp; 
 
"It came from somewhere deep inside, somewhere that needed to be excavated, and it was obvious that I could use some help with the job," Harry explained before revealing that William also asked him to go to therapy. 
 
In his book, Harry has revealed many dark secrets about his royal life, from his fight with his brother Prince William and other royal family members to drugs and much more. Check out more big revelations from Prince Harry’s memoir "Spare" here.

Prince Harry reveals ‘cruel’ fight with Meghan led him to therapy

Prince Harry faced a backlash Friday over his memoir "Spare", with criticism from the media, commentators, army veterans and even the Taliban, while Buckingham Palace kept silent on its widely leaked contents.

Days before the official publication on Tuesday, disclosures from the book dominated headlines and airwaves after a Spanish-language version of the memoir mistakenly went on sale in Spain.

Revelations, including an alleged physical attack on him by the heir to the throne Prince William, how he lost his virginity, took drugs and killed 25 people in Afghanistan, have prompted both condemnation and derision.

Writer A.N. Wilson called the ghostwritten tome -- the biggest royal book since Harry's mother Princess Diana collaborated with Andrew Morton for a 1992 biography -- "calculated and despicable" and a work of "malice".

Describing his decision to go public "idiotic", Wilson said the book had merely succeeded in making the public sympathise with the royal family, "not with him".

'Idiotic' -

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/lifestyle/news-prince-harry-reveals-that-he-has-killed-25-in-afghanistan-549926">Prince Harry reveals that he has killed 25 in Afghanistan</a>

The book is the latest broadside from Harry and his American wife Meghan after they quit royal duties and moved to California in 2020.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, as they are formally known, have since cashed in on their royal connections with several lucrative contracts for tell-all books and programmes.

The Spanish-language version of the book was hurriedly withdrawn from shelves after the blunder on Thursday but not before it had been purchased by media outlets, wrecking the publisher's strict worldwide embargo.

The Sun tabloid said public sympathy for Harry over losing his mother as a child could not "justify the destructive, vengeful path he has chosen, throwing his own family under a bus for millions of dollars".

In an editorial, it pointed to "countless discrepancies" in his claims and advised him to listen to friends who have urged him to "stop for his own good".

The Guardian's Gaby Hinsliff said the book had moved beyond issues of "awkward public interest" into the "washing of dirty linen" in public.

The US edition of the left-leaning newspaper was the first to publish a leaked extract of the book this week, in which Harry described his physical altercation with William.

"The details of the brothers' alleged punch-up in a palace cottage are at once almost ridiculously trivial and heartbreakingly sad," she wrote.

&nbsp;'Trashed' -

Harry's claim to have killed 25 people in Afghanistan and likening his actions&nbsp;to removing "chess pieces" from a board, has been seen as boastful and inappropriate, and enraged some veterans.

Retired colonel Tim Collins, who led a British battalion in Iraq in 2003, condemned a "tragic money-making scam", adding: "That's not how you behave in the army. It's not how we think.

"Harry&nbsp;has now turned against the other family, the military, that once embraced him, having trashed his birth family," he added.

Another high-ranking veteran who served in Afghanistan, colonel Richard Kemp, said his comments would "feed jihadist propaganda".

Senior Taliban official Anas Haqqani tweeted: "Mr Harry! The ones you killed were not chess pieces, they were humans; They had families who were waiting for their return."

Jealousy claims -

As the hashtag #ShutUpHarry began trending on Twitter, The Sun quoted sources close to his father, King Charles III, as saying he had been saddened by the book.

But there was no official palace comment.

In fresh claims in the memoir reported by the Daily Telegraph late Friday, Harry alleges that his father wanted to avoid supporting him and Meghan financially because he was jealous of her.

The duke writes he realised Charles feared "a novel and resplendent" royal who would "dominate" the limelight after the now-king raised concerns about the monarchy supporting the couple monetarily after their 2018 wedding.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

"He had experienced that before and he had no interest in letting it happen to him again," Harry writes, referring to Diana, the Telegraph said.

Craig Prescott, a constitutional expert at Bangor University in north Wales, told AFP the "scale" and "ferocity" of the current royal rift was unprecedented but the royal family would probably "ride this out".

But any moves to remove Harry and Meghan's royal titles would require political intervention and new legislation.

The royals would likely regard that as "pouring fuel onto the fire" at a time when they wanted to focus on Charles's looming coronation on May 6, he said.

In an editorial, it pointed to "countless discrepancies" in his claims and advised him to listen to friends who have urged him to "stop for his own good". The Guardian's Gaby Hinsliff said the book had moved beyond issues of "awkward public interest" into the "washing of dirty linen" in public. The US edition of the left-leaning newspaper was the first to publish a leaked extract of the book this week, in which Harry described his physical altercation with William. "The details of the brothers' alleged punch-up in a palace cottage are at once almost ridiculously trivial and heartbreakingly sad," she wrote. 'Trashed' - Harry's claim to have killed 25 people in Afghanistan and likening his actions to removing "chess pieces" from a board, has been seen as boastful and inappropriate, and enraged some veterans. Retired colonel Tim Collins, who led a British battalion in Iraq in 2003, condemned a "tragic money-making scam", adding: "That's not how you behave in the army. It's not how we think. "Harry has now turned against the other family, the military, that once embraced him, having trashed his birth family," he added. Another high-ranking veteran who served in Afghanistan, colonel Richard Kemp, said his comments would "feed jihadist propaganda". Senior Taliban official Anas Haqqani tweeted: "Mr Harry! The ones you killed were not chess pieces, they were humans; They had families who were waiting for their return." Jealousy claims - As the hashtag #ShutUpHarry began trending on Twitter, The Sun quoted sources close to his father, King Charles III, as saying he had been saddened by the book. But there was no official palace comment. In fresh claims in the memoir reported by the Daily Telegraph late Friday, Harry alleges that his father wanted to avoid supporting him and Meghan financially because he was jealous of her. The duke writes he realised Charles feared "a novel and resplendent" royal who would "dominate" the limelight after the now-king raised concerns about the monarchy supporting the couple monetarily after their 2018 wedding. "He had experienced that before and he had no interest in letting it happen to him again," Harry writes, referring to Diana, the Telegraph said. Craig Prescott, a constitutional expert at Bangor University in north Wales, told AFP the "scale" and "ferocity" of the current royal rift was unprecedented but the royal family would probably "ride this out". But any moves to remove Harry and Meghan's royal titles would require political intervention and new legislation. The royals would likely regard that as "pouring fuel onto the fire" at a time when they wanted to focus on Charles's looming coronation on May 6, he said.

Prince Harry reveals that he has killed 25 in Afghanistan

Prince Harry has made many bombshell revelations in his upcoming memoir, 'Spare,'&nbsp;from his childhood struggles, his rift with brother Prince William, his&nbsp;cocaine addiction, his infamous Nazi costume to his love life with Meghan. In the memoir, Harry also addressed the much-controversial fight between Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle, revealing the real reason behind the fight. 
 
The famous fight between Meghan and Kate has been in the news for years now. In 2018, the year Meghan and Harry tied the knot, several reports came out about Meghan making&nbsp;her sister-in-law cry. However, in 2021, Meghan denied the claims and said she was the one who actually cried. 
 
During the Oprah Winfrey interview, Markle said, "The reverse happened." 
 
"A few days before the wedding, she (Kate) was upset about something, pertaining to the fact that the issue was correct about the flower girl dresses, and it made me cry,&nbsp;and it really hurt my feelings.''

She said earlier, ''There wasn't a confrontation, and I don't think it's fair to get into the details of that because she apologised, and I have forgiven her. What was hard to get over was being blamed for something that not only I didn't do but that happened to me." 
 
Now, Harry has detailed the infamous matter in his upcoming memoir,&nbsp;the Daily Mail has revealed. 
 
The fight took place a week before the nuptials when the Princess of Wales texted Meghan about Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaids dress for the occasion. 
 
Describing the confrontation, Harry wrote that Meghan told Kate that she had a "baby brain because of her hormones."

"It caused such a huge row because Meghan was told that she wasn't close enough to her sister-in-law to discuss her hormones, and it wasn't the way people spoke to each other within the Royal Family," a source told the outlet.

After the rift, Prince&nbsp;William then called Meghan 'rude' to her face and 'pointed a finger at her' and said: ''These things are not done here."

Prince Harry recalls conflict between Meghan and Kate before their wedding

Prince Harry's comments over his military duty in Afghanistan didn't sit well with the Taliban as they have slammed the British royal for disclosing he killed 25 people.

Prince Harry's comments over his military duty in Afghanistan didn't sit well with the Taliban as they have slammed the British royal for disclosing he killed 25 people. In his memoir, Harry made several bombshell claims regarding his relationship with his brother and father- Prince William and King Charles III. British media has reported that in his memoir, which is to be released next week, Harry revealed the exact number of people he killed during two tours of duty. In his book "Spare", the Duke of Sussex allegedly wrote: "My number is 25. It's not a number that fills me with satisfaction, but nor does it embarrass me." He also said that it was like removing "chess pieces" from a board. While responding to his comments, Anas Haqqani, who is a senior Taliban leader, said, "Mr Harry! The ones you killed were not chess pieces, they were humans." Further criticising Harry, Haqqani in his tweet accused Harry of committing "war crimes" and stated that those Harry killed were Afghans who had families. He said: "The truth is what you've said; Our innocent people were chess pieces to your soldiers, military and political leaders. Still, you were defeated in that 'game'." In his book, Harry also justified his actions of Afghan killings by mentioning the 9/11 attacks in the United States. He noted that he met with the families of the 9/11 victims. The British royal served 10 years in the British military. He rose to the rank of captain. He carried out two tours of duty against the Taliban. First, he was a forward air controller calling in air strikes in 2007 and 2008, and second, he was flying an attack helicopter in 2012 and 2013. Harry's comments are 'harmful' British Army veterans said that Harry’s comments on killing Taliban are 'harmful'. Colonel Richard Kemp, a former infantry battalion commander in the British Army who served in Afghanistan, says that Prince Harry's remarks put himself and the United Kingdom in danger. While comrades may discuss such figures privately, Col. Kemp said that raising this publicly is considered distasteful among army officers.

'Not chess pieces, they were humans': Taliban slam Prince Harry over Afghan killings claim

Prince Harry's memoir 'Spare' is yet to hit the stands but the book is already making headlines thanks to its explosive content. In his book, which hits the stand on January 10, Harry has claimed that his brother Prince William and his sister-in-law Kate Middleton encouraged him to wear a Nazi uniform at a costume party in 2005. Harry was 20 years old at that time.&nbsp; 
 
According to a report on Page six, Harry reportedly has written that William and Kate had 'howled with laughter' when they had seen him in the Nazi outfit. Harry's photo of wearing a military shirt and red swastika armband holding a drink and a cigarette had made headlines back in 2005 and several had deemed his costume as 'inappropriate and insensitive'.&nbsp; 
 
In the book, Harry claims that he debated between dressing as a Nazi or a pilot for the 'Native and Colonial'-themed costume party. Prince William also attended, dressed as a lion. 
 
"I phoned Willy and Kate, and asked what they thought. Nazi uniform, they said," Harry writes, saying he brought the costume home and tried it on. "They both howled. Worse than Willy's leotard outfit! Way more ridiculous! Which, again, was the point." 
 
In later years, Harry expressed deep remorse over the offensive outfit and called it "one of the biggest mistakes of my life," during a moment in the 'Harry &amp; Meghan' docuseries on Netflix in December 2022.&nbsp; 
 
"All I wanted to do was make it right," he added. And while he "could've just ignored it and probably made the same mistakes over and over again," he learned from the experience.

The ball is in their court," continues Harry, before adding, "There's a lot to be discussed, and I really hope that they're willing to sit down and talk about it."

Prince Harry declines to comment on whether he’ll attend King Charles' coronation

Prince Harry may have alleged that his father King Charles and the royal family have shown no sign of reconciliation in an upcoming interview, but sources close to the King have reportedly said&nbsp;he is ready to patch up with his younger son.&nbsp; 
 
A Telegraph article states that King Charles wants to keep the communication channel open for Harry. "Those close to the king insist that he has always made clear how much he loves both of his sons, keeping communication channels open throughout the last few years, despite the many barbs from California," the British daily reported Tuesday, citing sources. 
 
Prince Harry will appear in two tell-all interviews this upcoming weekend. In one of them, Harry stated&nbsp;he wants his brother and father "back." The Duke of Sussex even alleged that stories were planted as he and his wife, Meghan Markle, attempted to step back from royal duties. Both interviews will be aired on January 8, ahead of the release of his memoir, 'Spare', on January 10.&nbsp; 
 
He will be speaking with ITV`s Tom Bradby as well as Anderson Cooper for his first US interview on '60 Minutes'. In a promo clip for his ITV interview, Harry is seen saying, "They`ve shown absolutely no willingness to reconcile." 
 
"I would like to get my father back. I would like to have my brother back," he added of King Charles and Prince William. He also said&nbsp;"they feel as though it is better to keep us somehow as the villains," though it was not clear who he was referring to. 
 
In a new one-minute segment shared by CBS News when Cooper asked Harry about his decision to go public as he stepped away from the royal family, he touched upon leaked stories by the palace. "Every single time I've tried to do it privately, there have been briefings and leaking and planting of stories against me and my wife," said Harry. 
 
Previously, Harry made similar bombshell claims about the palace covering for other royal members in the couple's latest Netflix docuseries, 'Harry &amp; Meghan'.&nbsp;

King Charles is open to reconciliation with Prince Harry: Reports

Prince Harry continues to drop explosive details of his fight with elder brother Prince William and the “institution” (read British monarchy) ahead of the release of his memoir “Spare”. In a passage from the memoir, which is now going viral, it’s mentioned that Prince William hit Harry and pushed him to the floor after describing the latter's wife as “difficult”, “rude” and “abrasive”.&nbsp;

Prince Harry said that he tried to get William a glass of water, but instead, he “came at me.” 
“It all happened so fast. So very fast. He grabbed me by the collar, ripped my necklace, and knocked me to the floor. I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me. I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out,” said Prince Harry in the passage.&nbsp;

William then left and said, “You don’t need to tell Meg about this.”

Harry then writes that Meghan Markle, his wife, noticed the “scrapes and bruises” and she “was terribly sad.”

Harry’s memoir comes out on January 10. In a statement, he said that he is “excited for people to read a firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful.”

Harry and Meghan have levelled a lot of allegations against William and their family ever since their Netflix documentary premiered. It’s expected that there will be more on the way as Harry plans to sit down with Anderson Cooper and ITV’s Tom Bradby for broadcast interviews. These interviews will air on January 8. The date, as most would know, is symbolic in the couple’s lives as they announced three years ago that they would be stepping back as working members of the royal family.

Prince Harry claims in memoir William hit and pushed him to the floor over Meghan Markle

Half of the British public believes that the Duke of Sussex stripped off his royal title following the release of his Netflix documentary with Meghan Markle, according to a recent poll. 44% of the responders that Prince Harry should have his title removed while 32% say otherwise.

Fresh trouble for Harry and Meghan? New poll after explosive Netflix series

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle continue to face flak for their Netflix docuseries 'Harry and Meghan.'&nbsp;In the two-part docuseries, which was released on the streaming platform in December, the couple shared some extremely personal moments from their life, how media and paparazzi have plagued their lives, and accused Prince William of rude behaviour, among other things. 
 
After all that the Duke and Duchess of&nbsp;Sussex have&nbsp;said against the royal family, the couple is losing popularity in the UK, and the recent poll conducted has shockingly revealed that almost half of Britons want Harry to be stripped of his princely title as he&nbsp;continues to make allegations against the royal family.&nbsp;

A recent poll conducted by YouGov in the UK on behalf of The Times found that almost half of Brits who are surveyed want the Duke to be stripped off his royal title. As per the poll, 44% of the people think Harry&nbsp;should be stripped off the title, while 32% feel that there is no need to take his title back. 
 
The same poll also found that people are more sympathetic towards Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton than Harry and Meghan. Some 44 % have a soft corner with the Prince and Princess of Wales, while only 17% sided with Harry and Meghan.

When asked about the new series,&nbsp;23% of people thought&nbsp;that series made them think&nbsp; worse about the couple, while only 7% said that they felt better and had a good impression of Harry and Meghan.&nbsp; 
 
The poll was conducted on 1,672 adults from December 20 to 21, the Times reported.

Before the docuseries was aired, a royal source revealed that the couple could be stripped off their princely titles if they continued to make allegations against the royal family. 
 
"Charles will be very cautious of repeating the mistakes made with Diana.&nbsp;When she was stripped of her HRH after the divorce, it fed into her narrative that the palace was a vindictive and cruel establishment. Imagine if they did something similar to Harry. He would be able to go on Oprah all over again and say, 'They did it to my mother, and now they are doing it to me.' It would completely play into their victim narrative," the palace source was quoted as saying. 
 
Reacting to The Times poll, Tom Quinn, author of Kensington Palace: An Intimate Memoir from Queen Mary to Meghan&nbsp;Markle, said: "I’m only surprised that the documentary didn’t do more damage to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex."

He further added, "I found it painful to watch—it made you realise they are lost souls.&nbsp;It is extraordinary that they feel this will somehow improve things for them.''

Should Prince Harry be stripped of his royal title? Half of Brits think, yes!

The royal family will have a difficult Christmas as the late Queen, who died away earlier this year, will undoubtedly be missed the most. The Sussex family will also be missing this year's celebrations. The children of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Archie and Lilibet, will remain in California rather than go to the Sandringham estate of the Prince and Princess of Wales and King Charles next week.

Amid this, news of what Kate Middleton gifted Prince Harry one Christmas when he was unmarried is becoming the talk of the town. One year, his sister-in-law Kate is thought to have given him a joke gift that was a bit weird, but was well received. It happened before Harry and Meghan started dating, and Harry was single after a succession of prominent romances. So what exactly did Kate give him as a gift? It was a kit for "growing your own girlfriend."

And to add to the humour, the entire family gathered to open Christmas presents together, so the late Queen would have been present when Harry did the same.&nbsp;As King Charles celebrates the first holiday season of his reign, Kate will spend Christmas in Sandringham with Prince William, George, Charlotte, and Prince Louis. As the royals prepare for their first Christmas after the Queen's passing, it is going to be a difficult time for them.

What did Kate Middleton gift Prince Harry one Christmas?

Britain’s royal family stuck to routine and remained silent Friday over the second half of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan’s<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-harry--meghan-is-biggest-debut-for-a-documentary-title-on-netflix-542987"> documentary series</a>,&nbsp;which made hard-hitting claims against Harry’s brother, Prince William.

While the first half of the six-part Netflix series concentrated on the couple’s bruising encounters with the British media, the final three episodes aimed criticism at the royal “firm” – the family and its staff.

In three hour-long episodes released Thursday, Harry claimed William screamed at him during a family meeting and accused palace officials of lying to protect his elder sibling, who is now heir to the throne. Meghan talked about wanting to end her life as she struggled to cope with toxic press coverage.

Harry, a grandson of the late Queen Elizabeth II, married U.S. actress Meghan Markle in a fairy-tale wedding at Windsor Castle in 2018. Less than two years later the couple left Britain, citing what they saw as the media’s racist treatment of Meghan and a lack of support from the palace.

In the documentary Harry, 38, said William lashed out at him during a family summit at Sandringham Castle in January 2020 to talk about the couple’s plan to step down as senior royals.

“It was terrifying to have my brother scream and shout at me and my father say things that just simply weren’t true. And my grandmother, you know, quietly sit there and take it all in,” Harry said.

He also accused royal communications officials of “leaking” and “planting” stories in the media, claiming staff would seek to deflect negative coverage of one royal by issuing a story about another member of the family.

Meghan, 41, revealed she thought about killing herself amid a torrent of negative media coverage before the couple decided to make a break with the royal household.

“It was like ‘All of this will stop if I am not here,’” she said.

Harry added that he believed the Mail on Sunday’s publication of a letter Meghan wrote her estranged father — over which she successfully sued the paper’s publisher — contributed to her having a miscarriage in 2020.

Neither Buckingham Palace, which represents the king, nor William’s Kensington Palace office has commented on the series.

There were no dissenting views in the documentary, which included interviews with the couple and supportive friends and commentators.

Royal expert Pauline Maclarnan, author of “Royal Fever: The British Monarchy in Consumer Culture,” said the relationship between William and Harry would be “very hard to repair” after the bombshell claims.

“This does seem to be very final,” she said.

Hours after the final episodes were released, senior royals put on a show of unity, attending a Christmas charity concert in London on Thursday evening. William, his wife Kate and their two elder children, George and Charlotte, were joined at the Westminster Abbey carol concert by King Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla and other family members.

British newspapers, the focus of much of the couple’s ire, were furious about the series. The Daily Mail said in an editorial that “the only saving grace” was that Queen Elizabeth II, who died in September, “was spared seeing this tawdry exercise in self-promotion.”

The Sun branded Harry a “traitor,” contrasting him with “dutiful” William.

The Times of London urged Meghan and Harry to give up their royal titles, Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

“Harry and Meghan must see the hypocrisy of claiming still to be royal,” the newspaper said in an editorial. “They have made clear that they consider themselves to be at war with the institution of monarchy, an institution that they appear to hold in contempt.”

The show comes at a crucial moment for the monarchy. The king is trying to show that the institution still has a role to play after the death in September of his mother, whose personal popularity dampened criticism of the crown during her 70-year reign.

While the Netlfix series has soured the couple’s relationship with the royal family — perhaps irreparably — Maclarnan said it would likely help the couple forge their new careers as U.S.-based charity campaigners and media personalities.

“I think it will have built their brand quite well,” she said. “I think a lot of people will see their perspective more, but particularly (the) younger generation. And I think really that’s where they’ve always aimed anyway.”

British royals stick to routine, carry on unaffected after Harry and Meghan series

Christmas is just around the corner and getting into the joyful spirit, Harry and Meghan have released their 2022 holiday card. 
 
The card featured a black-and-white picture of the Duke and Duchess of Success clicked at the Robert F. Kennedy Ripple of Hope Award Gala in New York City. At the event, Meghan stepped out wearing an off-shoulder white body-hugging dress, while Harry was wearing a black formal suit. 
 
Along with the photo, the card reads: 
 
"Wishing you a joyful holiday season," the card said. "From our family to yours, and on behalf of our teams at The Archewell Foundation, Archewell Audio, and Archewell Productions, we wish you health, peace, and a very happy new year. Best 
wishes." 
 
"Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex." The card was signed by both of them.&nbsp;
