Meghan Markle, the wife of Prince Harry, was humiliated this week when a popular British television host mocked her for “imagining that princesses live in fairytale castles and spend all day riding around on golden unicorns.”

The television host Jeremy Clarkson was responding to claims that Meghan made in her explosive tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this year.

“I would say I went into it naively, because I didn’t grow up knowing much about the Royal Family,” Meghan said at the time, according to The Express. “I think, as Americans especially, what you do know about the royals is what you read in fairytales, and you think is what you know about the royals.”

“It’s easy to have an image that is so far from reality, and that’s what was so tricky over those past few years, when the perception and the reality are two different things and you’re being judged on the perception but you’re living the reality of it,” she added. “There’s a complete misalignment and there’s no way to explain that to people.”

Clarkson, however, was not having any of it.

“Like all Americans, Meghan Markle will have grown up imagining that princesses live in fairytale castles and spend all day riding around on golden unicorns, smiling kindly at muddy plebs,” he said. “So it will have come as a bit of a surprise when she became a British royal and found that, on a wet Tuesday morning, she’d have to go to Carlisle on something called ‘a train,’ to open the civic centre’s new disabled ramp.”

“Worse, she was surrounded by footmen who kept saying things like: ‘No. You cannot go to New York for a baby shower on a horse-drawn private jet. Because we don’t know what an effing baby shower is, you clueless halfwit,'” he continued. “So, she’s obviously decided that if she can’t dine on peach and peacock and have a couple of mermaids in the gin-filled swimming pool, she won’t be opening any new toilet blocks ever again.”

Clarkson also called on Meghan to “get a grip” and said that he thinks that her and Harry’s Netflix programs will be “drivel.”

Ouch, that has got to hurt!
