The Sussexes’ Oprah Winfrey interview shook the Royal Family to its core, but sparked “added anguish” for Prince William, a royal author has claimed. After quitting royal duties in 2020, the Sussexes moved across the pond to pursue their own opportunities and to be “financially independent”. 

In March last year, the couple sat down with TV chat show host Oprah Winfrey for a tell-all interview where they made a series of bombshell claims about their time as senior royals.

In the aftermath of the interview being aired, Buckingham Palace released a statement addressing the accusations, which read: “While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately.”

According to royal author Robert Hardman, the interview particularly impacted Harry’s older brother William.

In an extract of his new book, ‘Queen Of Our Times: The Life Of Elizabeth II’ ​​published by Macmillan on March 17, Mr Hardman wrote: “For Prince William, there was the added anguish of seeing the younger brother whom he had protected (and who had idolised him) now throwing incendiary and, in some cases, unanswerable charges into the public domain, fully aware of their likely impact.

‘William,’ says one friend, ‘was as low as I’d ever seen him.’

“Since the Oprah interview, the brothers have only met twice — at Prince Philip’s funeral and at the unveiling of the statue of their mother at Kensington Palace.”

Prince Harry tipped to attend Charles’ coronation to ‘re-invigorate’ Sussex brand

Prince Harry will “certainly” be a part of his father Prince Charles’ coronation when the time comes, and attending alongside his wife Meghan will “re-invigorate” the “royal aspect” of the Sussexes’ brand, a royal author has claimed.

Members of the public would assume that after moving across the pond and stepping back from duties, Meghan and Harry would be ruled out of playing any significant role in the crowning of the next monarch.

She claims that a return trip to the UK for the Charles’ coronation would see the couple “re-invigorate” the Sussex brand’s royal link, something which she says has become “rather jaded currently”.
