Piers Morgan’s wife savagely hits out at Prince Harry after 'claptrap' interview

Piers Morgan ’s wife Celia Walden has hit out at Prince Harry following his bombshell podcast interview with Dax Shepard.

The British journalist has urged the Duke of Sussex to ‘put a sock in it’ after he referred to America’s constitution and First Amendment as ‘bonkers’.

The 45-year-old star also claimed that Harry should stop talking ‘claptrap’ after he criticised the US right to free speech during the candid chat where he also compared his life to a cross between being in a zoo and being in the Truman Show.

Following on from Harry’s bombshell Oprah interview alongside his wife Meghan Markle, in his latest chat, he also criticised his father and the rest of the monarchy for their parenting skills.

Now, Celia has shared her thoughts on Harry’s ‘claptrap’.

In her latest column for the Daily Telegraph, Celia, said: "Harry, stop talking. Pipe down. Quit chattering. Put a sock in it. Shush.

“After all, it was freedom of speech Harry was criticising when he made his own 'boob' on actor Dax Shepard's podcast last Thursday.

“Oh, and one of America's founding principles. But let's not get bogged down by any small print dating back to 1791."

Celia went on to insist that Harry’s decision to mock the First Amendment is akin to an American slating the Royal Family.

Piers’ wife fumed: “While Prince Harry's researching his adoptive country's founding principles, he might want to re-familiarise himself with it: the concept of national pride."

It comes after Harry referred to the First Amendment as ‘bonkers’ in his bombshell interview.

The Duke of Sussex admitted: "I've got so much I want to say about the First Amendment as I sort of understand it, but it is bonkers.

"I don't want to start going down the First Amendment route because that's a huge subject and one which I don't understand because I've only been here a short time.

"But you can find a loophole in anything."
