The pair had reportedly become involved in an argument with a fellow co-star, who was “subjected to an inappropriate comment and had her accent mimicked”.

Since then, Aaron Anthony has believed to have quit over the incident.

Following the news of his departure this weekend, Charley took to social media to share a message of her own.

See both sides

She posted two photos of Prince William, with the first showing the royal standing outside of a car.

The Duke of Cambridge appeared to be flashing the middle finger in the shot.

However, the second photo showed William front on and holding up three fingers.
