- The episode, which was broadcast on GB News on September 26, received 8,867 complaints with viewers objecting to the “misogynistic comments” made by actor-turned-politician Fox about about political correspondent Ms Evans.
- They added Wootton's reaction did not mitigate the potential for offence but rather 'exacerbated it' by 'contributing to the narrative in which a woman's value was judged by her physical appearance'.

- According to The Times, Harry and Meghan even found out about Kate’s cancer at the same time as the rest of the world while watching television. It’s believed they were blindsided with the news when Kate revealed her illness in an emotional video shared on Saturday morning.
