The ongoing saga between Prince Harry and the royal family has taken another turn with royal commentators and insiders stating they are concerned for the Duke of Sussex’s mental health.
In a week where his father and brother celebrated VE day in the UK, Harry remains on the outer after stating he will not return to Britain with his family after a high court decision denied them government funded protection.
The royal family including King Charles, Queen Camilla and the Prince and Princess of Wales spent the week paying tribute to those who lost their lives in WWII and the living veterans who continue to document their experiences.
But after the bombshell interview Prince Harry delivered on the BBC stating that he was “stitched up” by his family with regard to the security decisions and his fractured realtionship with his father, their movements have been overshadowed.
The Duke of Sussex, 40, said he was left “devastated” over the loss of the year long court battle and claimed he was the victim of a “good old fashioned establishment stitch up”.
The Prince launched an unprecedented attack on his family and disclosed he has fears for his father’s mortality as he continues to fight cancer.
“He ‘won’t speak to me,” the Prince said of King Charles.
“Life is precious. I don’t know how much longer my father has, he won’t speak to me because of this security stuff.
“It would be nice to reconcile.”
Daily Mail Royal Editor Rebecca English has described the actions as as a “monumental hissy fit”.
“Some aspects of it are really very disturbing,” Ms English said.
“He effectively said that he believed there were people who actively wished him harm and he felt those people would see what happened ‘as a win’, as he described it.
“Where Harry goes from here, I don’t know.
“He has obviously had a monumental hissy fit on television afterwards, to put it mildly.”
Charlotte Griffiths, the Mail on Sunday’s Editor at Large, joined Rebecca English, Richard Eden and Jo Elvin on Palace Confidential and all stated they had concerns for the Prince’s mental welfare..
“Harry just seemed beyond furious,” Elvon said.
“I am going to have to be careful with how I phrase this, but I thought he didn’t look well in his expression, his demeanour,” Eden added.
“Often if you are angry about something, people say you should sleep on it but this seemed to be something, and I think the BBC would confirm that it was done in a hurry.”
“He said a series of very unpleasant, provocative and dark, disturbing things, frankly.’
“The suggestions that he doesn’t know how long his father had to live which obviously increases speculation about the King’s cancer.
“He was portraying the decision as an ‘establishment stitch-up’ and then you think well, why did you go to court and spend £1.5 million in the first place if you thought it was a stitch-up and it wouldn’t make any difference, so that was odd.”
“He was hinting at evidence which he had seen which wasn’t made public which he suggested showed that dark forces were out to get him and they wanted the same fate to befall him and his family as did his mother Diana.
“Really dark and certainly got me questioning his state of mind, frankly.”
