Ein Zurück wird es für Harry nicht geben: Es war ein kurzes Gastspiel von Prinz Harry, das umso genauer beäugt wurde und schnell endete: Harry ist bereits auf dem Weg zurück zu seiner Familie. Inzwischen wird er auch nicht mehr gebraucht. »

Viel Geld möge Prinz Harry schon haben, aber die Zugehörigkeit der königlichen Familie ist ihm verloren gegangen. Und das ist eine Tragödie. Meines Erachtens, ein Weg zurück scheint es ihm nicht zu geben. Sein zu Hause hat er für seine Familie und sich in Kalifornien gemacht; und, wie es nun aussieht, in Kalifornien werden er und seine Familie auch bleiben müssen. Leider hat Prinz Harry sein Nest beschmutzt. Die alten Zeiten scheinen unwiederbringlich vorbei zu sein. – © Mark Alexander

Piers Morgan Encouraged Illegal Targeting of Diana, Says Prince Harry

Prince Harry has claimed Piers Morgan “knew about, encouraged and concealed” illegal targeting of Princess Diana when he was editor of the News of the World.

Harry alleges that his mother’s private text messages and phone calls were obtained by journalists working for Rupert Murdoch’s tabloid newspapers before she died, with the information used as the basis for multiple stories in the Sun and the News of the World.

Harry alleged in court documents that this illegal targeting of Diana – as well as Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles – was known about and hidden by Morgan and other editors in the mid-1990s.

Morgan, who now hosts a nightly show on Murdoch’s TalkTV channel, has always denied any direct knowledge of phone hacking during his time as a tabloid newspaper editor. The television presenter has had repeated run-ins with Harry. In 2021, Morgan quit ITV’s Good Morning Britain after making comments about the prince’s wife, Meghan. » | Jim Waterson, Media editor | Wednesday, April 26, 2023

Prince Harry's Book Spare Highlights a 'Complete Lack of Accountability' | Royal Insight

Jan 13, 2023 | Copies of Prince Harry’s memoir Spare are being read around the world, and it was just as explosive as expected. Even as the book was leaked ahead of its publication date, sales have soared ready for readers to hear ‘Harry’s truth’.

Camilla Tominey, Associate Editor at the Telegraph has read Prince Harry’s book ‘Spare’, so that you don’t have to.

The revelations vary from the sublime to the ridiculous, from the tragic to the infantile, says Camilla. As Harry divulges his recollections of Princess Diana’s death, his time in Afghanistan, and reiterates his hatred for the British press, Camilla says he has handed the media “a silver platter of royal stories to end all royal stories”.

In the first Royal Insight episode of 2023, The Telegraph's Associate Editor Camilla Tominey analyses the Duke of Sussex’s memoir in all of its glory.

'Prince Harry Wants to Destroy the Monarchy!' Royal Experts React to Spare | Palace Confidential

Jan 12, 2023 | Prince Harry wants to destroy the monarchy!' Royal experts react to Spare | Palace Confidential. One of the most ‘disturbing’ narratives in Prince Harry’s memoir Spare, is his obsession with his brother William. That’s the view of Daily Mail’s Royal Editor Rebecca English, whose reporting of a breakdown in relations between the princes was often denied by the Palace. ‘The issue about the brothers is fascinating. It’s obsessional his relationship with his brother in this book and it’s quite disturbing actually in parts,’ she tells our royal talk show Palace Confidential. ‘He really has barely a nice word to say about his brother, it gives Cain and Abel a run for its money, it doesn’t strike me as healthy at all.’ The Daily Mail’s diary editor Richard Eden believes that Harry’s fixation on his brother has the duke on a collision course with the institution of the monarchy itself.

Prince Harry’s Book Could Be ‘Beginning of End’ for Royals, Warns Charles’s Biographer

THE OBSERVER: Catherine Mayer says anger over racism, misogyny and wealth in the royal family can undermine public consent for a monarchy

The “absolutely catastrophic” implications of attacks on the behaviour of the royal family in the new memoir from the Duke of Sussex are being ignored, according to Catherine Mayer, the royal analyst and biographer of King Charles.

Early publication of the Spanish edition of Spare has put the focus on personality clashes, some of it fed by the royal publicity machine, and this could threaten the constitutional monarchy, whether or not the British public is calling for such a change, Mayer believes.

“It is possibly something that will mark the beginning of the end of the monarchy, and that is what we should discuss. It is important, given the lack of trust in the state at the moment and an upsurge in rightwing politics. Members of the royal family have become our proxies for anger about racism, misogyny and wealth. This is, after all, an institution that stands for inequality, so there are huge things at stake.” » | Vanessa Thorpe | Sunday, January 8, 2023

'Meghan Markle Is a Bad Apple That Has Rotted All the Royals'

Jan 6, 2023 | The Duke of Sussex has admitted he was “probably bigoted” before his relationship with Meghan Markle. In a new teaser for the CBS News interview which is due to air this Sunday, Harry tells interviewer Anderson Cooper he was “incredibly naive” about how the British press would treat his relationship with the American actress. “The race element” to the couple’s relationship had been “jumped on straight away” by the British press, he tells the programme, adding that he had no idea how “bigoted” the UK media was until his wife and their relationship were thrust into the spotlight. “What Meghan had to go through was similar in some part to what Kate and what Camilla, went through – very different circumstances,” the duke says in the 30-second clip released on Thursday. “But then you add in the race element, which was what the press – (the) British press jumped on straight away. “I went into this incredibly naive. I had no idea the British press were so bigoted. Hell, I was probably bigoted before the relationship with Meghan.”

THE GUARDIAN: Former royal biographer Jonathan Dimbleby says Duke of Sussex ‘is clearly a very troubled man’

A former royal biographer has said he is “perplexed” by the Duke of Sussex’s memoirs and says it contains the kind of revelations you would expect from a “B-list celebrity”.

Jonathan Dimbleby said Prince Harry had “constructed a narrative of his life which goes right back to the death of his mother”, as his highly anticipated book, Spare, is due to be released on Tuesday.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, Dimbleby, who interviewed Charles when, as Prince of Wales, he revealed his relationship with Camilla Parker Bowles, said: “I am perplexed. I am at a loss. He is clearly a very troubled man.

“I’m concerned incidentally that everyone uses the word revelations. Yes, there are obviously revelations about how he lost his virginity, taking drugs, and how many people he feels he might have shot down from his Apache. But those are the kind of revelations, in part, that you would expect, I suppose, from a B-list celebrity.” » | Tobi Thomas | Saturday, January 7, 2023

Harry Has Turned against Military, Says Ex-commander

BBC: A retired commanding officer has accused Prince Harry of "turning against" his military family after "having trashed his birth family".

In his memoir, the Duke of Sussex describes killing 25 Taliban fighters in Afghanistan as "chess pieces taken off the board".

Ex-colonel Tim Collins said that was "not how you behave in the army".

Prince Harry gives details about his time as a helicopter pilot in Afghanistan in his memoir Spare.

BBC News has obtained a copy of the book after it was put on sale early in Spain. In it, Prince Harry reveals for the first time that he killed 25 enemy fighters - which is perfectly possible after two tours in the Helmand region of the country.

"It wasn't a statistic that filled me with pride but nor did it make me ashamed," he writes.

"When I was plunged into the heat and confusion of battle, I didn't think about those as 25 people. You can't kill people if you see them as people.

"In truth, you can't hurt people if you see them as people. They were chess pieces taken off the board, bad guys eliminated before they kill good guys.

"They trained me to 'other' them and they trained me well."

Responding to the prince's comments, a senior Taliban leader Anas Haqqani tweeted: "Mr Harry! The ones you killed were not chess pieces, they were humans; they had families who were waiting for their return...

"I don't expect that the (International Criminal Court) will summon you or the human rights activists will condemn you, because they are deaf and blind for you." » | Andre Rhoden-Paul and defence correspondent Jonathan Beale, BBC News | Friday, January 6, 2023

Prince Harry's 'Distasteful' Comments about Taliban Killings

Jan 6, 2023 | The Duke of Sussex has revealed that he killed 25 people while serving as an Apache helicopter pilot in Afghanistan. In his autobiography Spare, Harry said he did not think of them as “people” but instead as “chess pieces” that had been taken off the board. The Telegraph, which obtained a Spanish language copy of the memoir from a bookshop in Spain, revealed that Harry wrote that flying six missions during his second tour of duty on the front line resulted in “the taking of human lives” of which he was neither proud nor ashamed. Describing watching a video of each “kill” when he returned to base, he wrote of Taliban fighters as “baddies” who were being eliminated before they could kill “goodies”. “So, my number is 25. It’s not a number that fills me with satisfaction, but nor does it embarrass me,” he wrote. Former British Army Officer Colonel Richard Kemp says it is "distasteful" for Prince Harry to be publicising how many people he killed in battle.

Prince Harry 'Angry That William Got the Bigger Room in a Castle'

Jan 6, 2023 | The Duke of Sussex has reportedly claimed his brother “felt tremendous guilt” for not speaking up about his father’s affair with Camilla Parker Bowles, now the Queen Consort.

In the Spanish translation of Harry’s memoir, which was accidentally released early in Spain and obtained by journalists from the US publication Page Six, the duke reportedly writes that the now-Prince of Wales had “long harboured suspicions about the Other Woman”.

Their father’s cheating – which was confirmed by the then-Prince of Wales in 1994 two years after his separation from Diana – had caused the older prince immense suffering as a child and teenager, Harry claims.

“(It) confused him, tormented him, and when those suspicions were confirmed he felt tremendous guilt for having done nothing, said nothing, sooner,” Page Six reports the duke wrote in a copy of his book translated from Spanish.

Speaking to TalkTV's Jeremy Kyle former BBC Royal correspondent Jennie Bond criticised Prince Harry for being 'entitled' during a cost of living crisis.

Prince Harry Saw ‘Red Mist’ in William during Brother’s Alleged Attack

A screenshot taken from the Guardian today.
THE GUARDIAN: Duke of Sussex recounts altercation with brother, saying ‘he wanted me to hit him back, but I chose not to’

Prince Harry has said he saw “the red mist” in his brother, Prince William, when his older sibling allegedly attacked him during a confrontation over the younger duke’s relationship with Meghan Markle.

In a newly released clip from ITV’s forthcoming interview with Harry, the Duke of Sussex said his brother, William, was so frustrated during the 2019 incident he saw “the red mist in him”.

“He wanted me to hit him back, but I chose not to,” he says of his brother, who he earlier claimed in his book had physically attacked him – as was first reported by the Guardian.

The book’s revelations are spread across front pages of almost every national newspaper in the UK and are likely to reduce the possibility of a reconciliation between the Sussexes and the rest of the British royal family. (With video) » | Jamie Grierson | Friday, January 6, 2023
