Prince Harry

'I don't know how staying silent is ever going to make things better,' Duke of Sussex tells interviewer.

The ball is in their court. In a trailer for a Good Morning America interview due to air on Monday, the anchor Michael Strahan is heard saying: “There’s a quote in your book where you refer to your brother as your ‘beloved brother and arch-nemesis’. But the door is always open. After everything we went through?’ Wouldn’t that be what he would say?” Harry responds: “There has always been this competition between us, weirdly. An interview with Anderson Cooper will also air on Sunday on the US channel CBS.

The Duke of Sussex says the “ball is in their court” in this family dispute, in an ITV trailer.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex would have been expected to have been invited to the coronation, even though Prince Harry is no longer a "working royal". Not attending the coronation events to be held in May would be likely to be seen as a snub and a measure of the scale of the family rift. But the door is always open. Adding to the sense of family tensions, in a US trailer for the Good Morning America show, an interviewer asks Prince Harry about calling Prince William both his "beloved brother and arch nemesis" in the memoir. A row had followed, after which Prince Harry says his brother "grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor". The ball is in their court," he told interviewer Tom Bradby.

The news of the altercation came from the Guardian, which obtained a copy of Harry's upcoming memoir, “Spare,” set to be released Tuesday.

Britons generally appear to be less sympathetic to Harry and Meghan, with many seeing them as royal whiners who abandoned their roles — and their country. Preorders of the book on Amazon have already boosted it to the No. “Harry writes that he gave his brother a glass of water and said: ‘Willy, I can’t speak to you when you’re like this.’” It may all feel a little sordid and intrusive, but it sells. “After William complained about Meghan, Harry writes, Harry told him he was repeating the press narrative and that he expected better. Harry and Meghan were married at Windsor Castle in May 2018.

And the wet hands that we were shaking, we couldn’t understand why their hands were wet, but it was all the tears that they were wiping away.” In the excerpt, Harry is quoted as saying he rode past the Ritz where his mother had dinner that fateful night, and then through the tunnel, along the Seine River at the Pont de l’Alma bridge, where the car carrying Diana crashed in August 1997. Prince Harry also writes that he was too young to suspect his father’s affair, but notes that his brother “harbored suspicions” for a long time, according to The Sun report. “I whispered that I hoped she was happy and that she was with Grandfather now. In 2005, Harry was pictured on the front page of The Sun newspaper wearing a swastika armband on a German military jacket at a costume party. When they were confirmed he felt awful remorse for not having said or done anything sooner,” Prince Harry says, according to The Sun. Quoting from the copy of the book, the Mail Online reported that Harry writes, “I remember wondering… Charles supposedly shook his finger at the man and said, “I am the Prince of Wales” when the patient mirrored his gesture.

Ahead of his memoir's arrival, Prince Harry sat down for two interviews that suggest he still has a lot to say about his departure from royal life.

He said that while he doesn’t want to hurt his family, he wanted to give the public a “full picture” of their relationship outside what has been reported in the press. “They cleared the windscreen, the windshield [of] the misery of loss,” he told Cooper. Recalling that when he first learned the news, he didn’t cry, Harry said: “I was in shock, you know? On 60 Minutes, Harry talked about the moment he found out that his mother had died in a car crash in Paris, recalling Charles coming into his room and delivering the news. Harry continued to accuse the palace of “leaking and planting stories” about himself and Meghan in his interview with 60 Minutes, describing the process as “using someone else, an unnamed source, to feed in lies or a narrative to a tabloid media that literally radicalizes its readers to then potentially cause harm to my family. [Jeremy Clarkson’s op-ed](https://www.thecut.com/2022/12/jeremy-clarkson-meghan-markle-camilla.html), in which the writer wrote that he “hated” Meghan and would like her to be forced to “parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain” à la Game of Thrones. He explained that he hoped writing about their rivalry growing up “squashes this idea that somehow my wife was the one that destroyed the relationship between these two brothers.” Harry repeated this claim on 60 Minutes, explaining that Camilla was “dangerous” because she needed to have a transactional relationship with the press. They could only have been leaked by the one other person present.” Harry also suggested that his father and Camilla’s press office fed stories about William and Kate Middleton to tabloids when they were first married noting, [per Hall](https://twitter.com/ellievhall/status/1612205151846293504), that his brother and sister-in-law “went through a large portion of the same things that Meghan and I went through.” In his book, Harry claims William called Meghan “difficult,” “rude,” and “abrasive” before grabbing him and knocking him on the floor. “Meghan and I have continued to say that we will openly apologize for anything that we did wrong, but every time we ask that question, no one’s telling us the specifics or anything,” he told Cooper. Judging from [leaked excerpts](https://www.thecut.com/2023/01/everything-we-learned-prince-harry-memoir-spare.html) and the numerous interviews he’s done ahead of the book’s arrival, Harry still has a lot to say about how his family treated him both before and after his departure from royal life, and he doesn’t seem to be holding back.

Prince Harry alleges Prince William attacked him over Meghan Markle in a new excerpt from Spare, his bombshell memoir due out next week.

According to sources close to William, he is furious that Harry has leaked details of their private conversations and the damage that Harry is causing the royal family. While Harry and Meghan were invited to join the royal family for Christmas at Sandringham, William was said to be particularly concerned about the possibility of the couple joining the family for the holiday. It is understood Charles took his sons for a walk around the castle grounds after the service and tried to act as a peacemaker, however, little headway was made and William and Kate were seen leaving shortly afterwards while Harry stayed to spend time with his royal cousins. During the incident, William is said to have called Meghan “difficult”, “rude” and “abrasive” while Harry accused his brother of “parroting the press narrative” about his wife. Harry started writing the book while the Queen was alive, however the release was delayed so that details of the Queen’s funeral could be included in an updated chapter. But according to Harry, things turned physical when William allegedly grabbed Harry by the collar, breaking his necklace and throwing him to the floor.

Harry claims William physically attacked him, and says he urged his father not to marry Camilla.

Prince Harry's account of a conversation he says he had with his late mother is short, the Guardian says. I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out." "You're living the life she wanted for you." So far there's a tone of unresolved grief, grievance and accusation in Prince Harry's claims. It's intensely personal too, about his closest family, brother, step-mother, sister-in-law, father. Reuters news agency has also seen the Spanish version.

'It all happened so fast,' Prince Harry writes in an excerpt from his forthcoming memoir about a 2019 argument he allegedly had with Prince William.

[People](https://people.com/royals/prince-harry-drove-same-tunnel-princess-diana-died-same-speed-excerpt-spare/) published a different excerpt from the book in which Harry recounts driving at high speed through the Paris tunnel where his mother, Princess Diana, died in 1997. But the argument inevitably came up after Meghan discovered “scrapes and bruises” on her husband’s back, Harry writes. The prince of Wales allegedly demanded Harry fight back, but Harry says he refused, and William eventually left.

The duke's bombshell memoir reveals his grief and anger at losing his trust for his family.

Such was the strangeness and scrutiny of his young life that he says he welcomed serving in Afghanistan. The aftermath of her death seems to have left a divide between Harry and his father, now King Charles. Also previously untold was his account of finding out about Queen Elizabeth's ill-health and death. It was a line used by Barack Obama before he became president - and it runs through this memoir like the writing in a stick of rock. When his plane was coming into land in Scotland he says: "I looked at the BBC website. It's not even past."

Harry tells Anderson Cooper that until his relationship with Meghan Markle, "I didn't see what I see now."

"There's a lot of complaining and a lot of explaining… "And that correspondent will literally be spoon-fed information and write the story. "I don't know," Harry said. "Every single time I've tried to do it privately there have been briefings and leakings and planting of stories against me and my wife," Harry told Cooper.

Prince Harry says he first found out about the death of his grandmother Queen Elizabeth from the BBC website. In his memoir Spare, the Duke of Sussex says ...

"We also spoke about the devastating drought. "It's like my head, granny, full of bald spots and brown patches!' She burst out laughing. "When the plane started to descend I saw that my phone lit up.

Some of the intimate details and shocking claims we can expect to read about in Prince Harry's new book.

In his book, Harry describes killing 25 Taliban fighters as being like removing chess pieces from a board.

But it is not always possible to count bodies on the ground or to distinguish between someone injured or killed. Lots of people firing roughly in the same direction would make it harder to tell too. And like many military personnel he said he had no interest in keeping count. He said: "This confession shows that the forces of all occupying countries have the same criminal stories." "When I found myself plunged in the heat and confusion of combat I didn't think of those 25 as people. "That's not the case at all.

In the book Spare, due out next week, he says he undertook six missions as a pilot that led to him “taking human lives”. Read more at straitstimes.com.

He was forced to return home when a foreign publication broke the embargo. He justified his actions because of his memory of the 9/11 attacks in the United States, and after meeting families of the victims. Prince Harry served for 10 years in the British Army, rising to the rank of captain, and has described his time in the military as his formative years.

Prince Harry's memoir "Spare" was on Friday mauled by British media and commentators who called it "vengeful" and "calculated", as Buckingham Palace kept ...

"I saw this red mist in him," Harry said in a clip of his chat with ITV, talking about the altercation with William. "Having made the idiotic decision to 'go public' about his rift with the royal family, Harry was no doubt under enormous pressure... The left-leaning newspaper, which has questioned the monarchy's role in modern Britain, was the first to publish a leaked extract of the book this week in which Harry described his physical altercation with William. In an editorial, it pointed to "countless discrepancies" in his claims and urged him to listen to friends who have urged him to "stop for his own good". The Sun tabloid said that while people sympathised with Harry, 38, over the trauma of losing his mother as a child and having to grieve in the public eye, "neither can justify the destructive, vengeful path he has chosen, throwing his own family under a bus for millions of dollars". Wilson called the ghostwritten tome -- the biggest royal book since Harry's mother Princess Diana collaborated with Andrew Morton for "Diana: Her True Story" in 1992 -- "calculated and despicable" and a work of "malice".
