Conservative commentator and GB News presenter Darren Grimes took to Twitter and wrote: "One of my most passionate hopes and prayers for 2022 is that the world’s media finally meets the demands for privacy issued by the shy and retiring royals Harry and Meghan, meaning we never have to hear from them ever again." But Mr Grimes's post prompted a backlash from some Twitter users.

       One with the handle @danielle_piper7 replied: "If you could refrain from tweeting about them for at least five minutes, that would also be a start......(!)"

       Another, @tutt_brian, wrote: "Set an example then."

       A third, @RonWiltshire17, added: "Try leading by example! A right to privacy literally means the right to choose what you wish to be released they can talk about whatever they wish, as it’s their right to decide what’s in the public domain. That’s what privacy is........it doesn’t mean they have to be hidden."

       However, others agreed with Mr Grimes and one user, @AbarthRocket595, commented: "We can live in hope!"
