During his first days on the U.K.'s Celebrity Big Brother house, Princess Kate Middleton's uncle Gary Goldsmith shared his thoughts on Meghan Markle's impact on the royal family.
Right at the beginning of his reality TV adventure, the 58-year-old wasted no time in mentioning his royal relatives. Talking to fellow contestants Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh on the episode aired on Tuesday, March 5, Goldsmith praised Kate, 42, and Prince William, calling them the "saviors of the royal family."
Goldsmith praised King Charles III for his impressive performance since taking the throne in September 2022 following Queen Elizabeth II's passing. When discussing Meghan and Prince Harry, Goldsmith expressed his candid thoughts.
According to Goldsmith, Prince Harry was deeply loved, especially when he was part of a trio with Kate and William. The three of them shared a strong bond and were comfortable together. However, Goldsmith believes that after Meghan entered the picture, it disrupted this dynamic and led to unnecessary drama. He disagrees with the narrative that Prince Harry was unhappy and feels that history has been rewritten unfairly.
Goldsmith added that it is not acceptable to betray your family in a dramatic way and then write books about it, expecting to be welcomed back for Christmas.

Gary Goldsmith, in an interview with The Sun shortly before the start of Celebrity Big Brother season, expressed his feelings of being "pretty miffed" about Meghan and Harry's criticisms of the royal family. The couple made headlines in 2020 when they announced their decision to step down from their senior royal roles and moved to California.
Goldsmith believed that everyone shared the same love for Harry, so criticizing his family during a sensitive time was unnecessary and inappropriate. He accused Harry and Meghan of disrespecting his niece.
Tensions have been escalating between Harry, Meghan, and the royal family since their official departure in 2021. According to royal expert Christopher Andersen, the recent medical scare of Harry's sister-in-law, Kate, may have strained the relationship between them beyond repair.
Anderson believes that Harry and Kate used to have a strong bond, maybe even a close friendship. He thinks Harry still cares about her, but Kate seems to have chosen to distance herself from them.

Goldsmith, meanwhile, shed more light on Kate’s recovery during a chat with fellow contestant Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu in the Celebrity Big Brother house.
He said he wouldn't talk about it because she doesn't want to. There's a sort of code or etiquette. If it's announced, he'll share his opinion.
Goldsmith emphasized that Kate is receiving the best care possible. The entire family has prioritized taking care of her first. They have decided that she needs time to recover and plan to reunite at Easter.
