The Sun newspaper 'sincerely sorry' for Jeremy Clarkson's comments about Duchess of Sussex

The Sun newspaper has said it is 'sincerely sorry' for comments Jeremy Clarkson made about the Duchess of Sussex. The company said it 'regrets publishing' a story in which the former Top Gear host criticised the Duchess.

The controversial column was branded 'awful' by ITV boss Kevin Lygo just days ago. And it became the Independent Press Standards Organisation’s (Ipso) most complained-about article.

In the piece Mr Clarkson said he 'hated' Meghan. Ipso said the piece, which was removed from The Sun’s website on Monday at Clarkson’s request, had received more than 17,500 complaints as of 9am on Tuesday – rising to 20,800 by 5pm.
