Prince Harry branded 'pathetic' over plea to win back family in ITV interview

Royal fans have shared their thoughts on Prince Harry's bombshell interview with ITV after a twenty-second trailer dropped on social media. Harry: The Interview sees the Prince go into unprecedented depth and detail on life in and out of the Royal Family - and it hasn't gone down well with some, as reported by The Mirror.

His highly anticipated memoir, titled Spare, is also set to be released in the coming week, with Harry telling his story of being "not a prince but the man I have become". Opening Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, presenters Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley delved into Harry's latest media move ahead of his memoir release.

Many viewers, though, were left irritated by the conversation and claimed they were "fed up" of hearing about the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle debacle. Taking to Twitter, a damning number of users branded Harry as "lost and pathetic". Alongside an array of angry-faced emojis, one person penned: "Could never forget the stain he has caused for the final years of her late Majesty's reign with his interviews, accusations and now the book."

Someone else sarcastically replied: "Generally speaking, I find that slagging your family off multiple times to a global audience tends to get in the way of any chance of reconciliation. Could be just me, though." While a third added: "If there wasn't a need to complain, it wouldn't happen. Royalists, cry more. It's pathetic."

It was first revealed that Harry was set to release a tell-all book back in July 2021, when he released a statement. As well as the memoir, Harry has also recorded two interviews which will be aired before the release of the book.

Of his ITV interview, Michael Jermey, ITV Director of News and Current Affairs, said: "It is extremely rare for a member of the Royal Family to speak so openly about their experience at the heart of the institution. Tom Bradby's interview with Prince Harry will be a programme that everyone with an informed opinion on the monarchy should want to watch."
