Good Morning Britain (GMB) viewers have slammed a “pointless” debate over rumours Prince William and Harry are reuniting, with some describing it as a “shoutfest” between two guests.
Two royal experts (one who sided with William and one who sided with Harry), appeared on GMB today (October 28) alongside presenters Ed Balls and Charlotte Hawkins.
The pair were debating if the royal brothers were “reconciling” following William publicly naming his brother for what is believed to be the first time in six years.
It comes as a new ITV documentary titled Prince William We Can End Homelessness shows William retelling a childhood memory of his mum (the late Princess Diana) and brother visiting a homeless shelter when they were young.
'I think it's Prince William offering an olive branch to his brother.'

GMB viewers dub royal debate a 'shoutfest'
But it seems a lot of GMB fans didn't enjoy watching the debate, which became heated as both royal experts began shouting over each other.
Some claimed this was “all too much for a Monday Morning”.
Taking to X, this person wrote: “@GMB stop letting these kind of pieces go ahead, it's an embarrassment. Nobody likes starting the morning with a SHOUTFEST over what in all essence isn't even news!!”
Another added: “What a pointless debate #gmb”
Someone shared: “This is all far too f***ing much for a Monday morning #GMB”
One asked: “How you supposed to hear what they're saying they are bl***y all shouting kver sach [over each] other dear lord #gmb”
“#GMB I think this feud is more interesting than the actual supposed Royal feud. Shut up,” tweeted this viewer.
This account put: “I’m not sure whether this is the Jeremy Kyle show or #GMB”
A person also posted: “Shut up with the shouting, neither of you know them or nothing about them, talking over each other constantly #gmb”

Another fan commented: “When will @gmb finally realise that there is ABSOLUTELY NO POINT in these ‘debates’ where you just get two people on the extreme ends of the argument to yell at each other. Pathetic. #gmb”
“That man has absolutely no manners...constantly talking over that lady,” said someone else.
Also in agreement, this person wrote: “Shut this bloke up and let the other guest speak ...what a car crash #gmb”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
