Speaking on Good Morning Britain, Lady Colin said: “I have an awful feeling that Meghan needs to understand things that she doesn’t yet understand.
“Like there’s a massive difference between being a celebrity hustling your way from the bottom to the top – and she was a very proud hustler, she used to use the word hustle for herself and her first husband very proudly – and being a lady or being a royal.
“You don’t hustle, the values, the embodiment is completely different.”
Host Kate Garraway asked how Meghan was currently doing in the role as a member of the royal family.
