James May has described Jeremy Clarkson’s article about the Duchess of Sussex as “creepy” but said he is in favour of free speech and “allowing the haters to hate”.
The 60-year-old, who presents The Grand Tour with Clarkson and Richard Hammond, brushed off speculation that the Amazon Prime Video show is under threat following Clarkson’s column in the Sun newspaper which drew accusations of misogyny and became the Independent Press Standards Organisation’s (Ipso) most complained-about article.
Clarkson, 62, said he “hated” Meghan and had dreamed of her being paraded through British towns and publicly shamed, adding that “everyone who’s my age thinks the same way”.
