mocking Donald Trump<\/a> on Stephen Colbert\u2019s late-night talk show.<\/p>\nDuring the monologue, he touched on America\u2019s \u201cobsession\u201d with royalty, and was met with boos when he said the country had \u201celected a king\u201d.<\/p>\n
The jokes have sparked some backlash for the prince, with some suggesting that he is ruining his chances of reconciling with the Royal Family.<\/p>\n
“When hopes of reconciliation and improved relationships with your royal relatives are in clear view, why do you (Harry) have to do something to push it all away?<\/p>\n
“Next time you want to get a few laughs from a crowd, maybe keep your royal relatives and political comments out of it. Because you may have just ended hopes of a successful royal reconciliation\u2026 again,” royal expert Jasmine Carey wrote for the Daily Express.<\/p>\n
\u201cHarry is continuing his paid speaking circuit and is continuing to ridicule his family. Harry jokes the royals are like Downton Abbey, but the TV show has LESS drama. Harry IS the drama,\u201d one critic said on X\/Twitter.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think Harry has restarted the criticism of his family all over again, but this time with what he thinks are off-the-cuff insults because he now realises the idea of any kind of reconciliation is over,\u201d another person tweeted.<\/p>\n
However, there was some defence for the father-of-two, with some people noting that public appearances allow him to earn a living after stepping down as a working royal.<\/p>\n
One fan tweeted: \u201cThe fact of the matter is that he has to support his family, and the only way he knows how to earn money is public speaking. Why should he be criticised for that?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe whole Royal Family are performing, that is their role, so Harry is fulfilling his contract,\u201d another echoed.<\/p>\n
Harry’s relationship with his family has been fraught since he and wife Meghan Markle fled the UK and stepped away from royal duties. Things then went from bad to worse when the Sussexes publicly criticised the royals in various TV appearances and Harry’s memoir, Spare.<\/p>\n

The last time Harry saw his father, King Charles, was in September during a 50-minute private tea at Clarence House.<\/p>\n
It is understood that the last time Harry saw his brother, Prince William, was in August 2024 at the funeral of their uncle, Lord Robert Fellowes. However, reports claimed that the two brothers kept their distance and didn’t speak.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry joked that life with the Royal Family was like Downton Abbey, only with more \u201cdrama\u201d than…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":623028,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[1760,1281,447,532,5105,7710,519,448],"class_list":{"0":"post-623027","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-king-charles","9":"tag-meghan-markle","10":"tag-prince-harry","11":"tag-prince-william","12":"tag-royal","13":"tag-royal-families","14":"tag-royal-family","15":"tag-royals"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115692193476451719","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623027","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=623027"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623027\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/623028"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=623027"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=623027"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=623027"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
