Host Camilla Tominey, who has been critical of the Sussexes before, asked: “So you got on quite well with both of them?”
To which the former premier responded: “Yeah, I got on well with both of them. I also worked with Harry when he did his Invictus Games for disabled veterans in the Olympic Park.
“And so, in a fit of pomposity, I thought: This national asset is leaving our country. I think, on the whole, he could be a force for good. I’m going to try and discourage him.’
“I had a pathetic attempt at that. It didn’t work. I failed to avert Megxit, but I did deliver Brexit.”
The clip was shared on social media, prompting many fans to comment on the journalist’s reaction to Mr Johnson’s claims.
One user wrote on X: “Watch Camilla Tominey’s face as Boris Johnson gushes praise for Harry and Meghan; she looks like she’s chewed a wasp. I loathe him, but this clip will keep me warm this winter.”
A second one added: “Christ almighty she looks absolutely devastated and on the verge of breaking down in floods of sobbing. a pleasurable view even though it’s got Bloater Johnson in it.”
A third one commented: “The woman is absolutely appalled at the fact that someone is speaking nice about them just look at her facial expressions.”
