Loose Women co-stars Carol McGiffin and Kelle Bryan had very different opinions as they discussed the possibility of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle appearing on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebration

Loose Women’s Carol McGiffin and Kelle Bryan butted heads on Tuesday’s show as they discussed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

The two women were sat on the panel alongside Christine Lampard and Frankie Bridge when the conversation soon turned to the royals.

It’s been reported that Harry and Meghan have been invited to appear on the balcony of Buckingham Palace during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebration.

The move signals another step taken towards repairing the relationship between the couple and the royal family after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex walked away from the Firm in 2020.

Carol, 62, and Kelle, 47, had very different opinions about the news and were keen to share their views.

When Christine asked if it would be nice yo see the couple on the balcony, Kelle said: “I think it would be lovely, yes it would, if that’s what they want and they’re comfortable with it.

“I think after the revelations that happened and especially the interview with Oprah, we all have a very different sort of perspective of what their experience was like within the palace.

“And they’ve always been really open and said that they’ve separated Her Majesty from the comments that they made, they’ve always stated that she was wonderful and none of their grievances were with her personally and this is a celebration for her isn’t it? So them being there would be really fitting,” Kelle added.

Carol then piped up: “I still think that it was a terrible betrayal and I think it’s good of the Queen to just let it go and not make a big deal out of it.

“And I think if everybody stopped making a big deal out of those two, they could just come over, go on the balcony, do the appearance and everyone would just go, ‘Oh look, it’s Harry and Meghan’.

“They’ve created this kind of whirlwind around them that everything they do now becomes like massive news and it does overshadow events up to a point,” she continued.

Kelle then butted in and said: “I think the reason that everyone’s talking about it is because they’ve been open about it.”

“They didn’t have to though, did they?” Carol asked, before adding: “They said they wanted privacy and they haven’t stopped talking about it since! They haven’t stopped talking about themselves and the royal family!

“They got cameras following them, you know, give it a rest!”

“It’s their fault! They created it!” Carol shouted as Kelle fired back: “How can you say they created it if it’s an experience that they had?”

“They’re still in the family, they’re still part of the family, and to bad mouth them as they did – which they did, you can’t deny that – why do they need to?

“Look, they wanna go away and have their privacy, go away and be quiet and when you come back and go on the balcony, we’ll all go, ‘lovely jubbly’,” she added as Frankie burst out laughing.
