Stefanie Powers unloaded on fellow actress Meghan Markle in a new interview where she shared a range of unrestrained opinions about the Royal Family.
Powers, who is best known for her leading role on the 80s sitcom Hart to Hart and currently splits her time between the UK, Los Angeles and Kenya, formed a close relationship with Prince Charles years ago through their mutual love of polo.
Speaking to The Daily Beast in an interview published Thursday, Powers revealed that she strongly disapproves of Charles' daughter-in-law Meghan.
The actress charged that the Duchess of Sussex has tried to turn the Royal Family into her own personal TV show, 'Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous' 'The Adventures of Meghan in the Palace'.
'[Meghan] wants to be a star, which, I'm sorry, is not what she is supposed to be doing,' Powers said. 'Meghan's role is not about being a star.
'It's her job to be Harry's wife, not change the royal dynamic.'

Powers called Prince Andrew (pictured) 'stupid' and said: 'Both him and Harry have making fools of themselves in common'
'Please, she's obviously not a great actress. She's not gotten into the role she has taken on.
'Grace Kelly did [when she married Prince Rainier of Monaco], but then she was Hollywood royalty—not a bit player in a minor television series.'
Her rant then shifted to other members of the Royal Family as she said: 'Britain is outstanding because of the Royal Family, and when a member of it misbehaves they shorten its viability.
'Prince Andrew is stupid. Both him and Harry have making fools of themselves in common.
'Kate [Middleton] is impeccable, she doesn't put a foot wrong.
'Look at Princess Anne. I love Princess Anne. I know her. She is sensational. She is her mother's daughter, totally committed to what she does. She has stepped back, and doesn't make a circus of life whenever she steps out. She's the real thing. She's kind of mischievous. She has a wicked twinkle.'
