'Hypocrites' Harry & Meghan Markle are 'royal version of Kardashians' & 'pimp out to high bidder', blasts Piers Morgan

PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle are royal versions of the Kardashians who "pimp themselves out to the highest bidder," Piers Morgan blasted today.

The Sun's new columnist says the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been a "relentless orgy of money-grabbing duplicity" since moving to the US.

But while the Kardashians, who have made their millions from life in the public eye, are "honest" about their mission to become billionaires, Meghan and Harry are not – according to Piers.

He said the former royals "have their noses permanently rammed in the regal trough" and "intend to keep them there until they’ve made themselves repulsively rich and famous".

"In this regard, they’re the royal version of the Kardashians," Piers writes in the Daily Mail.

"People with no discernible talent other than for pimping themselves out to the highest bidders and a craven desire to air their dirty family linen in public for financial gain."

But the journalist, who will soon make his comeback to The Sun, says at least the Kardashians’ mission to be billionaire TMI merchants is "founded on a basic honesty".

"They don’t pretend to be talented or saving the planet," he adds.

"The hypocrisy is breath-taking."

'HYPOCRISY'

Meghan and Harry have signed a number of lucrative deals since quitting royal life, with mega-bucks names including Netflix, Apple and Spotify.

They have also just finished a four-day trip to New York in what was their first public outing since baby Lilibet was born.

But the couple were slammed after the trip for giving a talk on climate change before taking a private jet home.

Piers said: "The self-styled eco-warriors never stop lecturing the world about the environment.

"Only last month, Harry warned us that climate change is one of the ‘most pressing issues we are facing.

"And one of the purposes of the Global Citizen Live concert they attended on Saturday night was to demand tough new eco laws halving US emissions by 2030.

"So, you might assume they lead by example in deliberately reducing their own carbon footprint?"

After speaking at the Global ­Citizen Live concert in New York Harry and Meghan climbed aboard a Dassault Falcon 2000 jet and flew back to their £11million mansion in Montecito, California.

Pictures showed them hugging their team after stepping off the jet.

Royal author Penny Junor, 71, told The Sun: “I do think this is hypocrisy. I’m sure there were plenty of scheduled flights.”

She added: “I do not understand why they are behaving as if they are superstars.

“His father has been known to take scheduled flights. His brother takes scheduled flights.

“This totally muddies the waters of their climate message. They are shooting themselves in the foot by taking private flights.”

have faced repeated criticism for insisting on using  private flights, despite preaching about the environment.

The Sun revealed in 2019 that the pair had taken six of ten round trips on private jets since getting married the previous year.

It included a flight to Italy for a Google climate change summit, as well as trips to Ibiza and Nice.

Harry also took a private plane home to California after a polo tournament for his Sentebale charity in Aspen, Colorado, in August.

The Prince has previously defended his use of private jets and insisted that he spends 99 per cent of his life travelling via ­commercial flights.

In 2019, he said: “Occasionally there needs to be an opportunity based on a unique circumstance to ensure that my family are safe, and it’s genuinely as simple as that.”

He explained that he tries to “balance out” the “impact” of private flights by off-setting his CO2 emissions.

But a spokesman for the couple did not respond when asked if they were off-setting their emissions from the trip back to California from New York at the weekend.
