Royal commentator Jonathan Sacerdoti insisted one of the Queen’s top priorities was the integrity and reputation of the Royal Family.

Their criticisms of the royals have been very public however Mr Sacerdoti argued the Royal Family is more likely to continue not responding to the pair.

Mr Sacerdoti said: “I think the Royal Family will have to continue to react how it is which is by not reacting a lot of the time.

“The image of being goodwill ambassadors to the world, spreading important stories about mental health and other issues they feel are important or play well to their audience.

“The two are on different trajectories and I think the Royal Family will continue to resist responding to every single thing they do or say unless they absolutely have to.”
