Maya Jama slammed for posting ‘disrespectful’ Buckingham Palace video
There are calls for a TV presenter to lose her job after viewers were shocked by a video she posted outside Buckingham Palace after Prince Philip’s death.
BBC presenter Maya Jama has been slammed after she posted a tone deaf video from outside Buckingham Palace following the death of Prince Philip.
She filmed herself travelling by car between jobs before realising she was outside the palace.
“The Palace, oh my god yes, it’s kicking off, yes f**k,” she said in the video which left fans appalled.
Turning to her driver she added: “Prince Philip died did you hear?”
Fans were outraged and took to Twitter to slam her behaviour.
“She has been in trouble for saying vile things before. Maya Jama drives past Buckingham Palace after Prince Philip’s death & says ‘The Palace, oh my god yes, it’s kicking off, yes, f***’.”
A second said: “Maya Jama drives past Buckingham Palace after Prince Philip’s death. Gobs****.
“Complete & utter gobs****. That man served in world war 2 & received a mention in despatches. Regardless of anyone’s views of the Royals show some respect.”
Another added: “@MayaJama disrespectful little Cow how dare you use such vile language outside Buckingham Palace in regards to the death of #HRHPrincePhilip. You are vile.”
