The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are “trashing” the Royal Family in an attempt to raise their public profile, according to commentator Richard Fitzwilliams.

He was discussing the visit to Jamaica by Prince Harry and Meghan to attend a film premier where they posed with the country’s prime minister, Andrew Holness, who wants to leave the Commonwealth.

Fitzwilliams told GB News: “As far as this is concerned, the Sussexes, they’ve posed a threat to the Royal Family if they are not in work, which at the moment they don't seem to be.

“It is unfortunate that they are deeply bitter if they don't have work, and they don't seem to have very much work to me.

“Hollywood Reporter called them losers, then they are a threat because the only way they can get money is by trashing the Royal Family, which is what they've done.”

In a discussion during Breakfast with Ellie Costello and Stephen Dixon, he continued: “The Sussexes can do what they like. They found freedom supposedly in Montecito. They’ve not got a great deal of work. They have lost Spotify, their accounts were not impressive.

“All of this means that they are looking to heighten the profile of their brand. Now, if you look at the polls, you see how they're not only at rock bottom in Britain, which I don't think they care about, but [also] in the United States.

“The problem there is as a pair at the moment they are not succeeding and I see this visit to Jamaica as a bit of grandstanding, which has specifically been planned because they do absolutely nothing which isn't planned in advance very, very carefully.”

He added: “I think the Sussexes do absolutely nothing that is not intentional.”
