King Charles will have been "cut to the bone" by his fragile relationship with Harry, according to Angela Rippon.
The Come Dancing star, 78, made the claim ahead of the Coronation, which Harry, 38, is attending minus Meghan, 41.
Suggesting the Duke of Sussex had "gone off the rails", the GB News presenter said: "The things he's [Harry's] said publicly about his brother, about his sister in law, about Camilla, about the King himself...All of those things he said were terrible influences - Charles must be cut to the bone by that."
Angela continued: "And yet at the same time he's his son and he loves him."
The broadcaster's soundbite came amid 7NEWS Spotlight's explosive interview with Meghan's dad, Thomas Markle.
