National Review columnist Caroline Downey told viewers he is a \u201cdisgraced loser son\u201d, claiming he splintered the <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/royal-family\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Royal Family<\/a> to go rogue. Fox News contributor Tom Shillue criticised his comedic timing, insisting Harry is simply \u201cnot a good comedian\u201d and that the scripted joke about America \u201celecting a king\u201d &#8211; a likely dig at <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/donald-trump\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Donald Trump<\/a> &#8211; fell flat.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Downey added that Harry has no experience exercising authority as a king, underlining the absurdity of the punchline. Mr Shillue argued the awkward delivery killed the humour, suggesting the line might have landed if Harry had delivered it naturally. The consensus was clear: the stunt was a cringe-filled misfire rather than a clever attempt at satire.<\/p>\n<p>THIS IS A LIVE BLOG&#8230; FOLLOW BELOW FOR UPDATES&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry\u2019s surprise cameo on Stephen Colbert&#8217;s The Late Show has sparked a wave of scathing criticism on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":328930,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,447,184292,134,39630,184293,5513,5514,184294],"class_list":["post-328929","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-colbert-cameo","tag-entertainment","tag-fox-news","tag-fox-news-criticism","tag-prince-harry","tag-royal-family","tag-royal-family-tension"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328929","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=328929"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328929\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/328930"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=328929"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=328929"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=328929"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
