Jeremy Clarkson's ITV future in doubt amid CEO's comments on Meghan Markle column

ITV bosses have said there is "no place" for Jeremy Clarkson's views on Meghan Markle on their channel, The Mirror reports. This follows the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? host's public apology, with company CEO Carolyn McCall clarifying they do not "endorse" his views and will not "provide a platform for his opinions".

The former Top Gear presenter wrote a column for The Sun, in which he expressed a desire to see the Duchess of Sussex walk through the streets naked while being pelted with "excrement", and said that he hates her on a "cellular level". After receiving overwhelming criticism for the piece, Clarkson wrote a Christmas Day apology to the Sussexes, but the couple later revealed it was only addressed to Harry.

McCall addressed the issue amid questions if he will continue hosting Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, as it is unclear if his contract will be removed.
