‘He should just get on with it and shut up’: Gavin and Stacey actress Alison Steadman slams ‘disgraceful’ Prince Harry and says she ‘can’t bear to look at’ his memoir Spare in book shops

• Steadman, 76, said she is in complete disagreement with the Duke of Sussex 
• She said she felt glad the late Queen was not alive to witness his actions 

Gavin and Stacey actress Alison Steadman has slammed ‘disgraceful’ Prince Harry and said she ‘can’t bear to look at’ his memoir Spare.

Steadman, 76, who played Gavin’s mother Pamela Shipman in the comedy, said today that the Duke of Sussex needs to ‘just get on with it’ and ‘shut up’ after his recent controversial heart-to-heart with Gabor Mate. 

The ‘intimate conversation’ about ‘living with loss and personal healing’ between the Duke and the trauma expert was livestreamed to paid viewers on Saturday evening.

Steadman said that she felt glad the late Queen Elizabeth was not alive to witness Prince Harry’s ‘disgraceful’ actions and recent revelations about life as a royal.

In an interview with The Mirror, she said: ‘It was his prerogative to leave the royal family and they let him, so I think he should just get on with it and shut up.’

The comedy actress added that as an ambassador for cancer charity Marie Curie, she had the opportunity to meet the then Prince Charles back in 2019. 

She said: ‘He’s a very warm and friendly man. You don’t feel intimidated in any way.

‘He’s probably seen me on telly and he just turned around and went, “Oh! Hello, hello,” and it was just like meeting a fan.’

In the show, Pamela and husband Mick crudely impersonate King Charles and Camilla, Queen Consort.

Asked about these scenes she said she did not know if they have watched them but hoped they were not offended. 

A representative for the Duke of Sussex has been contacted by MailOnline for comment.
