Reacting to her decision to miss the Invictus Games service, Lady C told host Nana Akua she is “delighted” that the Duchess had the “good sense to not show up”.
She added that if Meghan were to have gone with Harry, it would have become “a dog and pony show, where it’s all about her and Harry”.
Defending those involved in the Invictus Games, Lady C claimed: “I’m glad that she’s not going, so at least the focus will be on the Invictus Games and the cause, which of course, is the worthwhile cause of the injured veterans.”
Sharing her thoughts on the Nigeria visit, Lady C warned that the couple are facing “dangerous territory” and a “quasi-pseudo state royal visit”.
The royal commentator told GBNA: “As for Nigeria, I think we are heading into very dangerous territory and I think that there is actually a comparable between the quasi-pseudo state royal visit that Harry and Meghan will be embarking upon.”
