In an op-ed for The Sun which was published in December 2022, Clarkson wrote that he hated Markle “on a cellular level” and wanted people to “throw lumps of excrement” at her.

In the column he said: “I hate her. Not like I hate Nicola Sturgeon or Rose West. I hate her on a cellular level.” Adding: “At night, I’m unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant ‘Shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her.” He then tried to justify his comments claiming that “everyone” his age “thinks the same way.”

Following the backlash he received, he issued an apology in a statement on Instagram in January 2023, where he told fans he was “really sorry” for the comments he had made.
