Prince Harry’s Controversial TV Comments About Mother
Royal rift has deepened after Prince Harry’s comment in a recent interview, which made Prince William furious. The sources say that in the ITV interview, Harry told journalist Rebecca Barry that his court battle with the British media is a key part of his ongoing feud with the royals.
The Duke of Sussex also mentioned his late mother, Princess Diana. He suggested that there is evidence she was hacked in the mid-90s and criticised the tabloid press for portraying her as paranoid when she was not. However, an insider stated, “William is spitting mad that Harry would reference this again.”
It added that the Prince of Wales is very frustrated with the Sussexes for continuously using Diana’s death for their own gain. They also mentioned that Harry seems unable to move on, and his obsession with his mother has only intensified since marrying Meghan.
As a result, William is considering cutting ties with Harry permanently. Back in 2017, on their mother’s 20th death anniversary, the brothers had pledged not to speak openly about their mother’s death again. But Harry seems to have broken since stepping down from royal duties.
He hoped the film would present perspectives from close family friends who knew her well and wanted to protect her memory. According to a report, William no longer recognises his brother because of Harry’s decisions. The report also suggested that while William might be open to reconciling, he does not trust him currently.
Meghan & Harry Aim to Protect Their Children From Online Space
The ITV interview highlighted Harry’s ongoing issues with the British media. In February, he was awarded £140,600 in damages by the Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) after he claimed that information about him was published through phone hacking and other illegal methods.
The Duke of Sussex has previously discussed his ‘differences’ with his brother in several interviews. In his memoir Spare, he even alleged that their relationship had deteriorated to the point of a physical confrontation.
Recently, the Sussexes discussed their efforts to shield their children from online content. Meghan mentioned that their primary goal is to protect them. She acknowledged the challenges in the online space. Harry added that parents are now in a position where they need to be first responders.
Still, even the most skilled ones might not be able to recognise signs of potential suicide, which he described as a frightening aspect of the situation. This shows the Sussexes’ commitment to change for the betterment of their children. For more updates on the royal family, keep checking Soap Opera Daily!
