Denise Welch breaks silence on Meghan row after ‘utterly pathetic’ Ofcom complaints | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV


Denise Welch has doubled down on her support for Meghan Markle as the royal continues her tour of Nigeria with Prince Harry.

The 65 year old sparked a divide after being hit with 103 Ofcom complaints following a row between the panellist and former press secretary Dickie Arbiter over his criticism of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

The outrage followed a debate between Denise and Dickie where the former fiercely stood up for Meghan during a live broadcast. The former press secretary had been on air discussing the monarch’s cancer battle.

When he turned his attention to the strained relationship between King Charles and Prince Harry, Denise jumped in to defend the couple’s decision to leave the Royal Family.

Taking to Instagram today (May 12), the ITV favourite shared a photo of Meghan alongside Director-General of the World Trade Organisation, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, where the pair beamed at each other.

Denise told her 422,000 followers: “Last week I defended them against one of their detractors on tv and received 103 complaints from Ofcom!!! Good. Also utterly pathetic.”
