The Princess Of Wales’ uncle has said he loves that his niece is “putting family first” and he believes she and the Prince of Wales will be the “saviour of the royal family”.
Gary Goldsmith, who entered the Celebrity Big Brother house on Monday night, said it is “difficult to get hold of Kate at the best of times”.
In scenes that will air on Tuesday’s episode, former X Factor judge Louis Walsh asks the businessman, who is the brother of Kate’s mother Carole Middleton, if it is difficult for him to be related to famous people.
Goldsmith replies: “I didn’t vote for it, it happened to me, and then suddenly there’s a spotlight on you.”
Before adding: “They call me the buncle! Have you heard of a buncle? Bad uncle, apparently every family has them.
“It’s difficult to get hold of Kate at the best of times, and she’s got children and I love the fact that she’s putting family first.”
Goldsmith also asserts that he believes the Prince Of Wales and Kate will be “the saviour of the royal family”.
The conversation then turns to the Duchess of Sussex, but Goldsmith’s verdict on Meghan has not been revealed.
The return of Celebrity Big Brother debuted to 2.8 million viewers, ITV has said.
The reboot of the reality show peaked at 3.2 million viewers across all devices, according to overnight ratings.
The celebrity version of Big Brother follows the rebooted civilian iteration, which launched on ITV in October 2023 after it was axed by Channel 5 amid a ratings slump in 2018.
