Prince Charles believes he is 'nowhere near' his portrayal on The Crown, a senior politician revealed yesterday.
The next in line to the throne has never publicly commented on the Netflix series, which critics claim is full of inaccuracies.
But Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar has revealed that Charles gave his opinion to MSPs when he attended the state opening of the Scottish Parliament last October.
Normal protocol is that politicians should not disclose what royals say to them.
However, speaking at an Edinburgh Fringe event, he said that when Charles met MSPs at a multi-faith ceremony in Edinburgh before the state opening, 'he came over and went, 'Hello, nice to meet you all. I'm nowhere near how they portray me on Netflix'.
Mr Sarwar added: 'I thought that was a really interesting way of how you describe yourself.' He then told the audience at the Gilded Balloon: 'I'm going to be in so much trouble for this because I don't think you are meant to tell private conversations!' Clarence House declined to comment.
