Prince Harry makes controversial accusations against Prince William
In the excerpt, Harry recounts how his brother called his sister-in-law Meghan Markle “difficult, rude, and abravisa” which caused Harry to become enraged. The fight reached a boiling point when Prince Charles grabbed Harry by the collar of his shirt and threw him to the kitchen floor.
Harry reports that he fell on a pot of dog food, injuring his back in the process. He goes on to explain that William continued to taunt him, trying to goad him into punching back, but Harry says he refrained from hitting his brother.
Harry reported that Meghan’s reaction to the bruising on his body was one of neither surprise nor anger. Instead, she calmly accepted the explanation for what had happened and listened as Harry tried to explain the relentless criticism he and his wife have been facing.
Unfortunately, Harry claims that his brother, William, refused to offer any support or sympathy, instead acting as if he were the only one with a right to the throne.
Prince Harry accuses Prince William of encouraging him to wear Nazi Clothes
Prince Harry’s most controversial moment in life was influenced by his brother William and sister-in-law Kate, according to his biography. In 2005, Harry attended a costume party dressed as a Nazi soldier, complete with a swastika armband.
In an excerpt published by Page Six, Harry reveals that William and Kate encouraged him to wear the costume, saying it was more controversial than a pilot’s uniform. The couple even laughed upon seeing Harry in the armband with the swastika.
In a documentary series produced by Harry and Meghan for Netflix, Harry describes the episode as “one of the biggest mistakes” of his life. He goes on to say that he could have easily repeated the same mistake in the future, but instead he learned from the experience.
Harry acknowledges that this unfortunate moment was one of the most influential in his life and hopes that others can learn from it too.
