She continued: "He would like royal protection, access and attendance at royal family events so that he can tattletale. Yet, at the same time, wants ‘his privacy’ all whilst hiring three PR firms?
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were moved down the Royal Family's website to the bottom this week – placing them only above Prince Andrew.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wanted to keep the birth of Archie in 2019 as "private" as possible, with the two breaking Royal tradition.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were expected to be photographed on the steps of St Mary's Hospital in Paddington, London, but instead Archie was born at the Portland hospital and they were photographed with the new baby, at Windsor Castle.
It was claimed by a source in Katie Nicholl's brand new book, The New Royals: Queen Elizabeth's Legacy and the Future of the Crown, that Prince Harry was "morbidly obsessed" with the privacy of his son's birth, so much so that he "outfoxed" the media on the day.
"Behind the scenes, matters were so fraught that more than one official — as I know from personal experience — was reduced to tears of frustration and despair," Daily Mail's royal editor Rebecca English revealed.
The couple had managed to keep the birth so under wraps, that Archie had already been born "before the palace press office had confirmed the duchess was in labor."

King Charles ‘follows in the footsteps’ of the Queen with classic style
The King was hailed the most stylish man in London by TM Lewin, for his consistent fashion choices, and love for tweed and suits.
Celebrity stylist Miranda Holder told the Express: “King Charles may not be very famous for wearing the latest trends and indulging in the flashiest designers but that’s not to say he isn’t a fan of fashion – quite the opposite actually.
“Thanks to his willowy figure, King Charles has been a natural clothes horse for all of his royal career, and although not being ostentatious with his wardrobe, has always appeared stylish and debonair – trendsetting even.
“And that is partly due to the way he has ripped up the gentleman’s style rule book and simply pleased himself with his looks.”
