“Much of the same thing can be said about the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.”
Elsewhere, the royal author claimed Harry and Meghan’s exit from the Royal Family has not been damaging for them at all.
He explained: “I don’t think it’s been damaging at all, actually, because I think with Harry and Meghan, initially they were all for the controversy and the difficulty.
“Ever since Harry published his memoir, Spare, which was a ridiculous book, there’s no sense whatsoever that they are a serious couple.
“I was looking at the American Riviera Orchard revelation the other day and I thought Wallis Simpson, who was obviously Meghan’s spiritual forebear, would have done her own lifestyle brand – but with quite so crass a title? I don’t think so.”
It comes as the Duke of Sussex is set to return to the UK next month for an anniversary event of the Invictus Games in London.
Harry, even though it has not been confirmed yet, is set to speak at the Invictus Games 10th Anniversary Service, which will be held at St. Paul’s Cathedral on May 8, with Meghan’s appearance also yet to be confirmed.
