HOLDEN ROLLING IN IT...

THE Queen approved a publicity-shy man’s new TV series about mental health because she was unaware he would slam the Royal Family during the show, it has been claimed.

Her Majesty and Prince Charles are said to be “absolutely gobsmacked” by the ginger bloke’s “personal attack” on his relatives in the Apple TV+ docuseries, The Me You Can’t See.

And his continued public criticism of The Firm has left his relationsh­ip with the royals close to breaking point.

A royal insider said: “Those around the Queen and Prince Charles are absolutely gobsmacked by what has happened.

“It is a question of trust and honestly any of that is hanging by a thread at the moment.

“No-one within the Palace circles has anything but sympathy for [his] trauma and troubled life, but there is upset and discomfort at him sharing it on an internatio­nal television show.

“Certainly the intimate detail of his hardships paint a very negative picture of his family and upbringing. Many people have a different view.”

The source also claimed the show’s true purpose was “pushed to the side” when he spoke with the Queen about it, in what they believe was an “attack on his father and childhood”.

The insider added: “It has sent seismic tremors out everywhere. He has the freedom to speak up for his truth. But there has always been an understand­ing of accountabi­lity.”

In the explosive first episode last week, the 36-yearold accused his family of showing “total neglect” for his wellbeing and “bullying him into silence”.

He also claimed his dad Charles allowed him to “suffer” following the crash death in Paris of mum

Princess Diana in 1997.
