PIERS Morgan today slammed Meghan Markle as “shameless and shameful” after she launched into a fresh attack on the royals.

The Duchess of Sussex claimed “just by existing” she was “upsetting” the royal family as she gave another bombshell interview.

Piers Morgan has slammed Meghan Markle for her latest comments

She claimed she felt she was ‘upsetting’ the royal family so decided to leave

Meghan, 41, also told US magazine The Cut she was told exactly what to say and do and accused Prince Harry’s family of treating her differently.

She also claimed a Lion King cast member told her “we rejoiced in the streets the same we did when Mandela was freed” after she wed Harry.

Piers has now blasted the former actress for her sensational comments.

The TalkTV host said: “Even by Markle standards, this is a revoltingly self-aggrandising, disingenuous & hypocritical load of royal-bashing tosh.

“The Mandela anecdote alone had me gagging.

“How dare she use her title to keep trashing the institution that gave it to her? Shameless & shameful.”

In the explosive interview, Meghan lashed out at the royals for not granting her and Harry the “arrangement” they wanted even though they were not asking to “reinvent the wheel”.

But she claimed others who were allowed to carry out their duty on their terms.

Meghan said: “That, for whatever reason, is not something that we were allowed to do, even though several other members of the family do that exact thing.”

When asked why by the journalist, she responded: “Why do you think that is?”

Meghan also revealed the couple were willing to travel to any Commonwealth country to escape the family.

She said: “Anything to just … because just by existing, we were upsetting the dynamic of the hierarchy.

“So we go, ‘Okay, fine, let’s get out of here. Happy to,’ ”

Meghan also said Harry “lost his dad” over his dramatic feud with the royals as she suggested it was her husband’s decision to stay apart.

But she said it “doesn’t have to be the same” for Harry as it is for her and her father Thomas Markle.

Meghan said: “Harry said to me, ‘I lost my dad in this process.’

“It doesn’t have to be the same for them as it was for me, but that’s his decision.”

The fresh attack on the royals comes as Harry and Meghan prepare to fly back to the UK next month.

They are attending a youth summit in Manchester and the WellChild Awards for seriously ill children.

But it is believed the couple will not use one their two spare days to visit the Queen at home in Balmoral over Harry’s security row.
