Piers Morgan tore into Harry and Meghan as he led US coverage of the Queen's funeral. The presenter told Fox News that he had some sympathy with how the Duke of Sussex had been treated in a "less favourable" light to Prince Andrew.
He added that Prince Harry's upcoming memoir could be "very damaging" to his father King Charles - and confessed that he hoped that Prince Harry "wakes up", as he he snarked that Meghan was a "lost cause", reports The Mirror.
Joining Fox News in the US, he said: "We've all been following this soap opera drama... the bottom line is that it's hard to ignore them. When you have this renegade royal family [...] trying to have their royal cake and eat it.
"But there have been some moments this week where you could have some sympathy with Prince Harry over his treatment opposed to his disgraced uncle Prince Andrew."
Palace officials are understood to have intervened after it emerged Harry's disgraced uncle Prince Andrew, also no longer a working royal, had been given special permission to wear his uniform at a vigil over the Queen’s coffin attended on Friday by her four children, despite being banned at earlier ceremonial events.
Going on to address Harry's upcoming book, Piers said: "I hope something wakes up inside of him... I hope he pops the book."
However, Piers snarked about Meghan: "She's probably a lost cause in this because she just wants to be rich and famous."
As one of his co-hosts joked that they had delayed the publish date of the book so that they could add more chapters, he quipped: "That's the worry."
Westminster Hall finally closed to the public ahead of the state funeral today, with the final Brits paying their respects to The Queen.
The UK has been engaged in 10 days of mourning following the monarch's death, which culminates in her funeral, beginning from 11am at Westminster Abbey.
Millions around the world are expected to be watching the funeral as King Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward bid goodbye to their mother.
The Queen's children and grandchildren - including Prince William and Harry - will be following her coffin in procession to Westminster Abbey.
After the service, a procession is led toward Hyde Park Corner, before the coffin is transported to Windsor for a committal service, and then later a small, private ceremony for the Royal Family.
Following The Queen's death earlier this month, King Charles paid tribute to his "beloved mama" in an emotional speech to the nation.
In his address, the King said: "Queen Elizabeth was a life well lived; a promise with destiny kept and she is mourned most deeply in her passing. That promise of lifelong service I renew to you all today."
His Majesty referred to the new roles and titles now given to members of the family, confirming Camilla would serve has his Queen Consort.
On William and Kate, he said: "As my Heir, William now assumes the Scottish titles which have meant so much to me.
"He succeeds me as Duke of Cornwall and takes on the responsibilities for the Duchy of Cornwall which I have undertaken for more than five decades."
Harry and Meghan reunited with the Prince and Princess of Wales to look at some of the tributes left at Windsor Castle.
Prince William sent a dramatic final-hour text to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to view the tributes, though he is said to have not been acting on the orders of King Charles.
The Cambridges and Sussexes are believed to have struck a "truce" though the trust is "gone", a royal insider claimed.
