Elizabeth II’s grandson Prince Harry has redoubled his criticism of his own family, insisting once again that they were completely ignored when the Duchess of Sussex confessed that she was experiencing suicidal thoughts or when they both made it clear that a change needed to take place if they were expected to continue with their institutional role.
“I thought my family would help me, but each of the requests, requests, warnings, whatever, was answered with total silence, complete abandonment,” he assured the presenter.
“We spent four years trying to make it work. We did everything we could to stay there and fulfill that role and that job. But Meghan was having a hard time.”
Seeing his wife suffering in this way without anyone doing anything to try to help her was the last straw for the former royal because he feared that she would end up suffering the same fate as her mother Princess Diana, who died in a car accident in 1997 with her boyfriend Dodi Al-Fayed.
