US journalist Megyn Kelly has accused Prince Harry and Meghan Markle of being hypocrites after flying back to the US in a private jet.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were in the UK last weekend with their two children Archie and Lilibet to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

The royal couple attended Friday’s Service of Thanksgiving. They were booed by the public while walking down the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral.

The family’s trip to the UK came to an early end and returned to California in a private jet.

During Thursday’s episode of GB News’ Dan Wootton Tonight, available to stream on Flash, the Sky News Australia contributor shared her thoughts on the pair’s choice of travel.

The former Fox News presenter labelled the two as “frauds” after they previously urged the public to do more to protect the environment.

“People can’t stand them now because they realise they are a couple of frauds,” she said on the program.

“Their environmentalism is a fraud, their perpetual victimhood is a fraud, their supposed need for privacy is a fraud.

“And like any frauds, if you spend enough time watching them, they expose themselves over time.

“[Meghan] has been touting this since 2016 when she had her blog that nobody read.”

Ms Kelly commented on what she saw as “eco-hypocrisy”.

“This is the same couple that made you and your viewers pay $50,000 for an environmental friendly boiler when they moved into Frogmore Cottage which the British taxpayers paid for,” she said.

“They made you the British people pay for their vegan paints for their cottage because they think you should pay for them to live in an environmental way while they then sculk off in their private jet creating a bigger carbon footprint than the average British citizen can hope to create in one’s life.

“[Harry] has said in the past, ‘Oh we offset it all,’ this is what they all say all these environmental frauds.

“What that basically means is I paid some company enough money to plant enough trees to cover my carbon footprint.

“Most environmental groups will tell you that the whole thing is a bunch of nonsense.

“Half of these forests don’t exist and by the way that happened to the Vatican so it could absolutely happen to these two.”

The couple flew out of the UK on Sunday, before the Jubilee celebrations had even wrapped up.

However, sources told the New York Post this wasn’t a royal snub — Harry and Markle had always intended to attend two events and leave.
