Kate Middleton's uncle took to social media to blast Prince Harry and Meghan. Gary Goldsmith, who is the younger brother of Carole Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge's mother, launched an attack on the Sussex pair after their highly politicized public appearances.
According to reports, Goldsmith posted his sentiments against the in-laws of his royal niece on his LinkedIn account. Kate Middleton's uncle called Prince Harry and Meghan as "muppets craving attention" and he also said that they need to "sh*t up" while the rest of the British people try to get on with their lives in this pandemic crisis.
Goldsmith also gave some unsolicited advice to Harry and Meghan to just focus on raising their child, Archie. He said that Harry has "lost our love and respect" while further slamming Meghan for being wrong.
Kate's uncle apparently has had enough of the Sussexes after they made a plea to end structural racism in Britain and seemingly lectured the people about racial equality. Goldsmith said that he no longer recognizes the Harry he sees after admiring him for his military career and dedication to his royal duties.
Kensington Palace hasn't issued any comments regarding the Duchess of Cambridge's uncle. However, Goldsmith has since deleted his rant against the Sussexes on social media.
It's not the first time Kate's uncle has stirred some controversy. Described as "wild" in the press, Goldsmith has had the paparazzi following him before and was caught relieving himself in public one night out of town.
Goldsmith was also at the center of a domestic violence allegation filed by his fourth wife, Julie-Anne Goldsmith in 2017. He made a guilty plea of assaulting her and paid the almost $10,000 fine in court. The couple is still together to this day.
Kate's uncle is a self-made millionaire who has an eight-acre house in Ibiza. Prince William and Kate reportedly visited this house for a holiday in 2006.
Goldsmith was at the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate in 2011. Sources said that despite his flaws, the Middleton family embraces him for who he is.
According to celebrity insider Nicki Swift, Kate's uncle feels that his authentic self attracts more support and positivity. He apparently posted on his LinkedIn that it's more important for him to be honest about who he is than "to be loved by everyone."
