Read our privacy policy The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have branded an apology by The Sun newspaper over Jeremy Clarkson’s column “nothing more than a PR stunt”. The piece, in which Clarkson said he “hated” Meghan, became the Independent Press Standards Organisation’s most complained-about article. On Friday, The Sun newspaper said it regrets the publication of the column and is “sincerely sorry”. Unfortunately, we’re not holding our breath.” In the column, which The Sun said has since been removed from its archives as well as its website, Clarkson wrote that he had dreamed of Meghan being paraded through British towns and publicly shamed, adding that “everyone who’s my age thinks the same way”.
