His words carry a pointed message directed at the monarchy.
Harry stated, "You know what you did, and I now know why you did it," and he urged them to come clean by saying, "And you’ve been caught out, so just come clean.” Although he didn't delve into specific details about the apology,
Harry has previously accused the royals of unfairly labeling Meghan as "an
American actress, divorced, [and] biracial" and of leaking negative stories
about her to the British media. He feels that if his concerns had been taken
seriously earlier, the divide between Meghan and the rest of the royal family
could have been prevented from escalating.
Reflecting on the situation, Harry expressed regret, saying, "It was all so
avoidable. But they just couldn’t help themselves."
He also shared his unsuccessful attempts to communicate with the royal family
about the consequences of their decisions and actions, especially on a global
stage and within the Commonwealth. Harry described it as a "mindset" and a
"culture" within a tightly closed circle that he couldn't penetrate.
In the interview, Harry admitted to feeling a responsibility to share the "truth" through his forthcoming memoir, particularly for the sake of future generations within the royal family. He expressed concern about the challenges that one of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s three children, particularly "the spare," might face. However, Prince William has made it clear to Harry that his own children are not Harry's responsibility.
