An assistant to Prince Harry has slammed the statements regarding her safety as’staggeringly distasteful’ and ‘out of touch’ with reality.

Nile Gardiner, a foreign analyst, recently offered this rebuke on Twitter.

He wrote, “The staggeringly tasteless, out of touch interview from Prince Harry after the relentless attacks on the Royal Family coming from the Meghan/Harry household in California.”

This call-out is in response to Prince Harry’s comments about making sure his grandmother was “protected” and “had the right people around her”.

Prince Harry addressed his meeting with the Queen, with NBC and explained at the time, “Being with her was great. It was so nice to see her.”

“Both Meghan and I had tea with her. She was on great form, she always has a great sense of humour.”
