AUSSIE TV host Karl Stefanovic has blasted Meghan Markle and Prince Harry amid the ongoing security row.
The outspoken Today Show host said he “can’t stand to look at” the Sussexes after they requested private armed security guards on their first trip to Europe since Megxit.
Their plea for beefed-up close protection officers as they head to Holland for the Invictus Games was snubbed by Dutch authorities.
The pair will bypass a stop-off in Britain as they do not “feel safe” and believe it is too dangerous for them to visit.
Stefanovic, 47, echoed comments that their decision to miss an opportunity to visit the Queen in London was “ludicrous”.
The pair’s itinerary has further ruffled feathers after they did not attend Prince Philip’s memorial,
Harry blamed his absence on the ongoing security dispute, but was branded a hypocrite for planning a trip to the nearby Netherlands.
During a chat with co-host Allison Langdon and The Daily Mirror’s Royal Editor Russell Myers, Stefanovic slammed the Sussexes for refusing to make a detour despite being just “an hour away”.
Royal expert Myers said: “He skipped Prince Philip’s memorial. The rest of the Royal Family were there.
“There were royals from all over Europe and still Harry and Megan couldn’t be bothered to turn up. It’s ridiculous.”
Langdon chimed in: “It’s getting harder and harder to defend them.”
Stefanovic then let rip: “I can’t even look at them. [I used to like Harry] and even Meghan back in the day.
“Maybe the first season of Suits. Then it was all downhill from there.”
The 47-year-old has long been an open critic of the Duke and Duchess, previously mocking Meghan for acting like “she’s the first mum ever”.
He made the scathing remarks after the ex-actress told Ellen DeGeneres about her daughter Lilibet’s teething troubles.
‘DUMPING’ ON THE ROYALS
The presenter gave a sarcastic thumbs up before adding: “Even just by being there she is dumping on the royals.”
He and co-hosts Allison Langdon and Alex Cullen also cackled as they watched a video in which Meghan gushed over Prince Harry and Archie as she read out The Bench.
Stefanovic claimed it was “really hard to keep a straight face” while watching the clip.
The Duchess also came under fire with the cutthroat Aussies after releasing her 40×40 video for her milestone birthday.
The slick clip saw her ask A-lister pals to join her 40×40 mentorship programme, with Melissa McCarthy chatting to the duchess while Harry even made an appearance in the background juggling.
But the Today Show team ripped into her lighthearted clip, saying she had “lost the plot.”
Sophie Walsh, 35, said: “I love that she’s lecturing people about getting back to the workplace and she quit her job as a royal after less than two years.”

Stefanovic, dubbed Australia’s answer to Piers Morgan, then noted that the pair are already making millions “from home” thanks to their deals with Netflix and Spotify.
He continued: “And to have that dog’s life, just lying there in front of the fire that’s not on, on a pillow.”
