Prince William has kept quiet during his alleged feud with his brother Prince Harry, but his latest move could cause upset to Harry and wife Meghan Markle. William is said to have completely cut contact with the Sussexes following their repeated public attacks on the Royal Family. During his recent interview with the BBC, Harry admitted that “some members of my family will never forgive me” for writing his memoir Spare.
Now it is believe that Prince William will make a cameo appearance on Clarkson’s Farm, two years on from Jeremy Clarkson’s controversial and sexist comments about Meghan in his newspaper column with The Sun.
The Times recently confirmed that “Prince William features in the next-but-one series of Clarkson’s Farm.” Rumours about his appearance swirled when William attended an event celebrating the Duchy of Cornwall’s next generation of farming tenants in Bristol, England, in March – and met Clarkson’s Farm stars Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland.
Speaking to Kaleb, Prince William said he had a message for him from his eldest son, Prince George. “You’ve got George watching now,” William told the farmer. “I said to him, ‘What shall I say if I meet Kaleb?’ He said, ‘Tell Kaleb to mind his language.'”
Caleb later admitted: “I did get told off for swearing too much…I tried to stop, but at the same time, it’s awesome. That’s what I like about the whole show…I’ve had so many people thank me, going, ‘You brought the family together.’ It’s a great feeling.”
William’s cameo newscomes two and a half years after Jeremy penned a column about Meghan that was widely criticised – and eventually was removed.
In December 2022, the 65-year-old wrote the article hating Prince Harry’s wife “on a cellular level”, adding that he dreamed about people throwing excrement at her “when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain”.
Jeremy later said in a tweet that it had been “a clumsy reference to a scene in Game of Thrones,” acknowledging that it “has gone down badly with a great many people.” The article sparked immediate backlash, and The Sun removed the piece from its website.

And after over 25,000 people complained to Ipso – the Independent Press Standards Organisation – it was ruled as sexist by the press regulator. Both The Sun and Jeremy issued apologies, with the paper saying it was “sincerely sorry.”
But a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex disputed Clarkson’s claim that he apologised to both Meghan, 43, and Prince Harry, 40. In a statement shared in January 2023, the spokesperson said, “On December 25, 2022, Mr. Clarkson wrote solely to Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex. The contents of his correspondence were marked Private and Confidential.”
“While a new public apology has been issued today by Mr. Clarkson, what remains to be addressed is his long-standing pattern of writing articles that spread hate rhetoric, dangerous conspiracy theories and misogyny,” it continued.
“Unless each of his other pieces were also written ‘in a hurry,’ as he states, it is clear that this is not an isolated incident shared in haste but rather a series of articles shared in hate.”
