The instalment saw Denise defend Prince Harry and Meghan, which led to a clash with guest Dickie Arbiter, who was previously press secretary to the late Queen and King Charles.<\/p>\n<p>During the chat, Dickie ,mentioned Harry&#8217;s memoir, Spare, and also declared: &#8220;[Prince] Harry has been rubbishing the family since he walked out in 2020.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Denise countered: &#8220;Do you not think there is a reason why [he] did such a thing? &#8221; She then cited experiences from Prince Harry&#8217;s life, including his mother Princess Diana&#8217;s death when he was just a child.<br \/>\nShe later went on: &#8220;Then he has a wife who is continually trashed by the media, including your good self, if I may say &#8211; when she is on a world stage, doing a lot of good for a lot of people.&#8221; &#8220;I am just sick to death of the bashing that this woman gets,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>After the complaints started coming in, Denise posted a message on Instagram about Meghan, saying she was &#8220;appalled that this woman is abused and berated by the public and media on a daily basis&#8221;. &#8220;Not many people could mentally cope with the hate she contends with,&#8221; she said.<br \/>\nNo wonder her husband took her away and despite everything they are thriving. Their reception in Nigeria has been wonderful to see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She added: &#8220;Last week I defended them against one of their detractors on TV and received 103 complaints from Ofcom!!! Good.
