Journalist Jeremy Clarkson recently shared a heated tirade against Meghan Markle following the release of the second volume of the actress and Prince Harry’s Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan.

In his column, written for The Sun, Clarkson dubbed Prince Harry a “glove puppet” who is controlled by his wife and shared that he felt “sorry” for the royal. Meanwhile, he mentioned that he “hates” Markle.

The former Top Gear star also referred to First Minister of Scotland Nicola Sturgeon and serial killer Rose West in his column and said:

“Meghan, though, is a different story. I hate her. Not like I hate Nicola Sturgeon or Rose West. I hate her on a cellular level.”

Clarkson also shared his shocking dream about Markle and his bizarre wish to see the actress humiliated on the streets of Britain:

“At night, I’m unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade n*ked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, ‘Shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her.

He also added that he believes everyone his age thinks in a similar way about Markle and said that the support she receives from the younger generation makes him “despair”:

“But what makes me despair is that younger people, especially girls, think she’s pretty cool. They think she was a prisoner of Buckingham Palace, forced to talk about nothing but embroidery and kittens.”

Jeremy Clarkson added that the situation makes him “angrier” and claimed that every incident surrounding Meghan Markle and the royal family has been “pre-planned.”

The Clarkson's Farm star also spoke against Markle’s appearance on the Netflix docuseries and said:

“I can see it clearly. The studied pauses. The mock incredulity. And the B-movie, soap-actress, quivery-voiced, more-in-sorrow-than-anger stories that are so obviously claptrap.”

Following the publication of Clarkson’s column, his comments against Meghan Markle went viral on social media and sparked major outrage online.


Jeremy Clarkson on the future of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

In his now-infamous column slamming Meghan Markle and her Netflix docuseries with Prince Harry, Jeremy Clarkson predicted the future of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

He said that Markle would allegedly release her own memoir following the publication of Prince Harry’s Spare before ending her relationship with her husband.

Clarkson also claimed that Markle would present the narrative of being “exhausted by the whole royal thing” and eventually marry a tech billionaire:

“We will see Diana-style photographs of her, all on her own, outside the Taj Mahal. And then she will be pictured gazing into the middle distance, on the back of a playboy’s superyacht and will marry a tech billionaire and they’ll have a child called something vomitty like Peace. Or Truth.”

Speaking about Prince Harry’s future, Clarkson wrote that the royal will be “stuck” in the U.S. and receive the blame for the end of his relationship with Markle:

“[Prince Harry] will be stuck in California with no friends, either there or here, no family to support him and an army of young girls who’ll believe Meghan’s story that the marriage break-up was all his fault.”

Jeremy Clarkson also claimed that Meghan Markle will “damage” the royal family in the future:

“One day soon, my generation will all be dead, and we will be replaced by a new bunch who are growing up believing that Charles and William and Co are bullies who are waited on hand and foot by slaves, eunuchs and spin doctors.”

He claimed that the situation can only be changed once Prince Harry remembers “who he is” and shares his version of the truth instead of Markle’s.
