The rift between Prince Harry and Prince William continues to widen, as revealed in Harry’s explosive memoir ‘Spare’. In the book, Harry claims that William made a hurtful comment about Meghan Markle, comparing her to a ‘convicted felon’ and fueling the growing tension between the brothers.
According to Harry, William’s remark came during a conversation about his relationship with Meghan. William reportedly said, ‘She’s an actress, after all, Harold. Anything can happen.’ Harry interpreted this statement as a subtle jab at Meghan, implying she couldn’t be trusted due to her profession. He wrote that William’s words made Meghan feel ‘like a convicted felon’.
This incident is just one example of the alleged animosity between the brothers. Harry also alleges that William was initially hesitant about his relationship with Meghan, expressing concerns about the speed of their courtship. ‘It’s too fast, he’d told me. Too soon,’ Harry writes in his memoir.
These revelations come on the heels of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s bombshell Netflix docuseries, which also depicted a strained relationship with the Royal Family. In the series, Harry described his family’s initial surprise at Meghan’s intelligence and beauty, suggesting a sense of disbelief that a ‘ginger’ could attract such a woman.
The feud between the brothers has captivated the public, with the latest revelations from ‘Spare’ offering a glimpse into the intense personal dynamics behind the Royal Family’s public image. The book’s release has reignited the debate over the Royal Family’s treatment of Harry and Meghan, raising questions about the institution’s ability to adapt to modern society and address the concerns of its younger members.
