Former director of communications, Guto Harri, has revealed the details of a "confrontation" between Boris Johnson and King Charles III. In a new podcast called Unprecedented, Guto Harri said that the former Prime Minister Boris Johnson "squared up" and "confronted" King Charles, who was a prince at the time, whilst on a trip in Kigali, Rwanda.
The former journalist became Boris Johnson's director of communications in February of last year, but announced in September that he was leaving the post after seven months following the appointment of Liz Truss as Prime Minister. In the podcast, Guto Harri also claimed that Mr Johnson warned the future king to "be careful" or that he'd "end up having to sell the Duchy of Cornwall to pay reparations for those who built it".
He added that "relations never fully recovered" between the pair. In an interview with Nick Ferrari on LBC on Tuesday morning, the Cardiff-born broadcaster went into detail about how Prince Charles at the time had criticised the Tory government's Rwanda deportation plan.
