Piers Morgan, who has remained vocal about the Royal Family on social media, was noticeably quiet after Prince Harry, 37, Meghan Markle, 41, Prince William, 40 and Kate Middleton, 40, paid their respects to Queen Elizabeth II on Saturday. The TalkTV presenter has since addressed the brothers and their wives reuniting during a sombre occasion, amid claims of tensions between the four royals.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex joined the pair after the Prince of Wales personally extended an invitation to them on Saturday.
It is the first time William, Kate, Harry and Meghan have been pictured together since the latter left their royal duties and moved to the United States.
Dressed in all black attire, the four looked at tributes and flowers which had been left at Cambridge Gate following the death of Britain’s longest reigning monarch.
Piers has now addressed the royal reunion as he chatted on The Chris Evans Breakfast Show today.
The Virgin Radio host quizzed: “What have you purposefully not talked about Piers, over the last few days? What have you stayed away from?”
Addressing Meghan and Harry reuniting with Kate and William, Piers said: “It was good to see them coming together but I think that it’s been described as more of a truce than a proper peace settlement.
“We know Harry has got this book coming out. How much damage will that book, if it genuinely is what people think it is, a real tough thumping assault of what he has had to endure as a young prince.
“How much damage will that cause his father, the new king? His brother – the heir? All of these things are important.”
The 57-year-old explained during this difficult period it is important as a broadcaster to “get the tone right” otherwise it can “become a soap opera”.
“I think it’s tricky on issues,” Piers explained, “For example, the well known rift between William and Harry, Kate and Meghan. How much of that do you cover? When you’re covering a story of the magnitude with the passing of the monarch.”
He continued: “On one level it’s soap opera stuff and you might be inclined to leave most of it alone, on the other it has genuine constitutional relevance and importance.
“It’s important that the new king has the support of both his heir and his other son.”

Piers went on to say he believed it was important for King Charles III to clarify to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex what their roles would be going forward.
He commented: “I think it’s important now to clarify, going forward, what is the role of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in this Royal Family because I don’t think you can sustain a rival Royal Family running around.
“These things have to be settled.”
Meanwhile, Piers heaped praise on Princess Anne following the death of the Queen.
The presenter shared a fitting tribute to the late monarch’s only daughter on Twitter on Sunday as he shared a snap of the princess driving in a car behind the hearse carrying her mother’s coffin.
The grief and pain was clear to see on Princess Anne’s face as the vehicle drove to the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
The former Good Morning Britain presenter praised the royal for being “selfless” over the years.
He said: “Princess Anne is being driven in a car behind her mother’s hearse for six hours from Balmoral to Edinburgh, grief etched on her face.
“Anne never gets enough credit for her own selfless devotion to duty & decorum. Like the late Queen, she represents the very best of royalty.”
