Prince Harry ‘was the spare’ says Dickie Arbiter

The singer-songwriter questioned whether anyone takes the Duke of Sussex – who quit royal duties earlier this year for a new life in the US with Meghan Markle – seriously. He told The Matt Morgan Podcast: “Prince Harry, surely no one takes him seriously? He’s just a mad little kid.

“I don’t like do-gooders in general, they f***ing wind me up.”

The former Oasis guitarist added that he believes the Royal Family have a “f***ing s**t life”.

He said: “They’re quite mad, the Royal Family.

“‘What a terrible f***ing s**t life they must lead, it’s just service, what a load of w**k.

“We grow up thinking what a life they lead. Living in Buckingham Palace with f***ing boring s**t all day, what a f***ing s**t life. Can’t go anywhere, can’t do anything, f***ing going to Kenya on holiday.”

Harry is living in an £11 million mansion in California with the Duchess of Sussex and their young son Archie after stepping back as senior working royals.

Earlier this week it was announced that the couple has signed a multi-year deal with audio streaming service Spotify to host and produce podcasts as they launch careers outside of the Royal Family.

Harry and Meghan’s new audio production company Archewell Audio has gone into partnership with Spotify for an undisclosed sum but is likely to be worth tens of millions.

It comes months after they signed a Netflix deal rumoured to be worth more than £100 million.

And on Monday, it emerged the former actress had invested in a start-up business which makes instant oat milk lattes, which chat show host Oprah Winfrey promoted on Instagram after being sent its products.

The Sussexes said of their Spotify deal: “What we love about podcasting is that it reminds all of us to take a moment and to really listen, to connect to one another without distraction.

“With the challenges of 2020, there has never been a more important time to do so, because when we hear each other, and hear each other’s stories, we are reminded of how interconnected we all are.”

They will host a “Holiday Special” which is due to be released in the coming weeks.

But a YouGov poll suggested most Britons are not interested in Meghan and Harry’s podcasts.

Royal author Penny Junor warned the Queen’s grandson and the ex-Suits star are likely to face “bear traps everywhere” as they pursue their own commercial activity.

She pointed out that their Netflix deal had already proved controversial due to the portrayal of the royals in The Crown.

Ms Junor said: “I think unhappily, it is very difficult to square up being a member of the royal family with commercial activity because there are bear traps everywhere.

“I’m sure it never crossed Harry and Meghan’s minds about The Crown, possibly being negative or damaging when they got their wonderful contract from Netflix.

“But the problem is that they left those gold standard advisers when they left Buckingham Palace, when they turned their back on the help that they were getting.”

Meghan and Harry announced bombshell plans to step back as senior royals in January. They officially ended royal duties at the end of March.
