GMB star hit with furious backlash over Prince William swipe: 'Harry's the better man'

Good Morning Britain panellist Narinder Kaur has caused controversy again as she took a swipe at Princess Kate and Prince William - branding Prince Harry "the better man". In a new tweet on X, the controversial social commentator praised Harry's honouring of the "Forgotten Army" on the 80th anniversary of VJ Day.

Sharing a snap of the letter and a wreath made from poppies, Narinder wrote: "Prince Harry honoured the 'Forgotten Army' on the 80th anniversary of VJ day, placing a note and wreath at the Burma Star Memorial." She went on to quote from the letter, which read: "For me, this anniversary carries an added layer of meaning. My late grandfather, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, served in the Pacific campaign."

Narinder then controversially added: "Whilst William couldn't show up for these veterans, Harry just went and proved why he's a better man already and representation of this country... he speaks from his heart, his heartfelt VJ Day letter shows the kind of empathy, duty & respect this country deserves from its royals. While William & Kate stayed silent in person, Harry honoured veterans directly & with humility."

In the comments section, fans weren't happy with her playing into Harry's alleged "PR stunt", with one writing: "You're smart enough (I think) to know THAT letter had one purpose & one purpose only, PR. Harry leaked it, which tells you everything you need to know.

"Only a moron would think it was 'authentic, organic...' you know, Meghan's go-to buzzwords, overused to death."

Another said: "PR PR PR! He didn't care for his grandfather then. Why now? He allowed this."

Somebody else fumed: "You've never been one to let facts get in the way. W&C didn't stay silent and posted their own message of remembrance. Henry didn't show up in person, he just got a mate to deliver a message to insert himself into an event and garner PR for himself from suckers like you."

William and Kate released a VJ Day statement of their own, which read: "Today, on the 80th anniversary of VJ Day, we remember the courage, sacrifice and resilience of all who served. Today we especially think of those British and Commonwealth troops who fought in the Asia-Pacific.

"We owe an enduring debt to the generation who gave so much, and to whom we will always be grateful. Lest we forget. W & C."
