He said:

"I know we are in the social media age, where it's easy to make videos and share them online, but I feel that the king and his queen went too far with their actions. Even if it was an assault, it would have been better to report it to the police than to bring it online. They are grown adults with parents, and I felt ashamed watching the recording."
