He wrote: "People say I'm too critical of Meghan Markle - but she ditched her family, ditched her dad, ditched most of her old friends, split Harry from William & has now split him from the Royal Family.
"I rest my case".
The outspoken TV personality also tweeted a GIF from Harry and Meghan's wedding, writing "what Meghan wants... Meghan gets" - harking back to a comment the Duke was said to have made to staff.
Piers also dubbed the treatment of the Queen as "disgraceful", as it emerged no royals had been told about the statement.
He tweeted: "Wow. What a disgraceful way to treat the Queen. Shame on Harry and Meghan. Buckingham Palace says 'it's complicated'. Translation: the Queen's bloody furious."
After being told to leave the couple alone by former cricketer Kevin Pietersen he replied: "No. She’s breaking up our royal family after fleecing the public purse.
"As a taxpayer, and a Monarchist, I’m entitled to take a rather dim view of this."
