December 27, (THEWILL) – Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s representative has stated that The Sun‘s apology over a removed column from Jeremy Clarkson is nothing more than a PR stunt.
This was made known in a statement to BBC, which came days after The Sun retracted Clarkson’s column in which Clarkson expressed hate for the Duchess of Sussex on a cellular level.
According to the spokesperson, they said that the apology was simply disingenuous.
“The fact that the Sun has not contacted The Duchess of Sussex to apologize shows their intent.
“This is nothing more than a PR stun,” they told the magazine.
The statement added that a real apology would be a shift in how the UK outlet covers the couple.
“While the public absolutely deserves the publication’s regrets for their dangerous comments, we wouldn’t be in this situation if The Sun did not continue to profit off of and exploit hate, violence and misogyny,” the statement added.
“A true apology would be a shift in their coverage and ethical standards for all. Unfortunately, we’re not holding our breath.”
