Jeremy Clarkson to Remain as Host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire Despite Backlash

ITV executives have confirmed that Jeremy Clarkson will keep his job as the host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, following the backlash over his comments about the Duchess of Sussex.

The ex-Top Gear star has been at the center of a media storm after writing in his newspaper column that he desires to see Meghan made to parade without clothes through the streets while crowds throw lumps of excrement at her.

More than 60 MPs have written to the editor of The Sun condemning the column in the strongest terms, and Clarkson has since issued a statement on the issue, saying, “Oh dear, I rather put a foot in it in a column I wrote about Meghan.

I made a clumsy reference to a scene in Game of Thrones, and this has gone down badly with a great many people.

I'm horrified to have caused so much hurt, and I shall be more careful in the future.”

Speaking at a broadcasting press guild event in London on Tuesday, Mr. Ligo, managing director of ITV studios, said, “I would say what he writes in a newspaper column, we have no control over what he says.”

Clarkson's desire to see Meghan paraded n^ked through the streets has sparked outrage across the UK, with many calling for him to be fired from his role as host of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

However, ITV executives have stood by their decision to keep him on.

Notably, Canadian police have recently addressed Meghan Markle's claims that she never received state-funded security.

This clapback has been issued following Meghan Markle's admission in the Netflix docu-series titled Harry and Meghan, where she recalled reaching out to police officials and claimed, “I would say to the police, if any other woman in Toronto said to you, ‘I have six grown men who are sleeping in their cars around my house and following me everywhere I go, and I feel scared,' wouldn't you say that was stalking?' They said yes, but there's really nothing we can do because of who you are dating.”

Jeremy Clarkson has hit the headlines again for all the wrong reasons, but the former Top Gear presenter is no stranger to controversy.

The 62-year-old broadcaster is in hot water after he penned a column for The Sun about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's new Netflix documentary.

Royal commentator Hillary Fordwich has claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's recent docuseries is backfiring in the US, where people have increasingly had enough.

Miss Fordwich made the remarks in conversation with Gary Baker on his show, saying, “Harry, in his bombshell docuseries, claims everything that happened to us was always going to happen to us because if you speak truth to power, that's how they respond.

I've had to make peace with the fact that probably never going to get genuine accountability or genuine apology.”

Fordwich continued, “What's so sad here, I think, is what has already been squandered by Harry.

What about what they've lost doing what they've done themselves?

He had an approval rating by a nation that absolutely loved him.

A young of polls that he was plus 81% in the UK, and now he's fallen to minus 63.

She has gone from a plus 42 percent to a minus 72 percent.

What a terrible plummet from all they've said and done.

I covered that wedding.
