The first I will see The co-presenter pointed to Meghan, saying the idea of running for president of the United States would be “absolutely hilarious” and suggested the couple should leave the United States.

“How dare an English prince with a headline tell them what to do,” he told GB News.
“There are a lot of comments today about how absolutely angry they are with him.
“He talks about climate change and the problem it is and how he eats it and goes home on a private plane; there is a kind of nonsensical hypocrisy.
“He’s very angry with the vote against abortion; well, that’s none of his business, is he?
“I think he strayed a lot from the focus on Mandela.”
