In a recent interview on the comedy food podcast Off Menu, comedian Steve Coogan discussed his views on the royal family and why he considers himself an “anti-monarchist.” Despite his opposition to the monarchy, Coogan admitted to enjoying King Charles III’s Duchy of Cornwall orange juice. He expressed his conflicting feelings, stating, “I don’t like having a royal family but I do like his produce, so I feel a bit torn.” Coogan went on to criticize those who support the monarchy, describing them as “idiots” who uphold a power structure that oppresses the working class. However, he acknowledged the hard work of the late Queen and expressed respect for her. Coogan’s comments reflect his nuanced perspective on the royal family, highlighting both his appreciation for certain aspects and his overall opposition to the institution.
