An Australian TV host has slammed Boris Johnson for revealing that the late Queen Elizabeth II had bone cancer . In his upcoming memoir, Unleashed, the former prime minister said he became aware of the monarch’s condition for more than a year before she died at the age of 96 on September 8, 2022. However, her cause of death was publicly recorded as ‘old age’ on her death certificate.
Recalling his final meeting with the Queen two days before she died - in which he officially resigned after being fined over the ‘partygate’ scandal during the Covid lockdown - he said that despite her illness, the Queen’s mind remained sharp. But Boris’ revelations haven’t gone down well across the pond – with Australian morning show presenter Natalie Barr accusing the ex PM of revealing the private medical information in a desperate bid to sell books. In a brutal two-word put down saying exactly what she thought of the move as Boris continues the publicity tour of his new book, Sunrise TV host Natalie said: “Dog act, Boris.
” She continued: “If the Royal Family or the Queen had wanted to release that [information], they would have. They would all have known. So, to sell a book.
I think that’s appalling.” Her co-star Matt ‘Shirvo’ Shirvington agreed Boris was wrong to break royal protocol by revealing the Queen’s private medical matters and said: “To break the Queen’s confidence in that way..
. just horrible.” In his memoir, Boris writes he visited the Queen.
