Prince Harry has disclosed that his brother, Prince William, had allegedly urged him to retaliate physically during a heated confrontation regarding Meghan Markle.
Speaking for the first time about the tumultuous 2019 incident mentioned in his book “Spare,” the Duke of Sussex shed light on the altercation in a forthcoming ITV interview with Tom Bradby.
During the candid discussion scheduled to be broadcast this Sunday, the 38-year-old asserted that William, aged 40, seemed to provoke him to respond in kind following an apparent physical altercation.
“I made a conscious decision not to,” Harry mentioned in a preview shared on Friday.
“What stood out was the high level of exasperation.
I refer to the intense anger that clouded my judgment for many years, and I witnessed a similar fury in him.”
The term “red mist” characterizes an intense anger that briefly obscures rational thinking.
Harry caused a stir earlier this week with excerpts from his upcoming memoir, detailing an alleged clash with William.
The Duke accused his elder sibling of labeling his wife, aged 41, as “challenging,” “impolite,” and “harsh” during a disagreement at Nottingham Cottage, claiming that the Prince of Wales then assaulted him.
Describing the incident, Harry recounted falling onto a dog bowl that fractured beneath him, resulting in a visible injury.
Buckingham Palace informed Page Six that it would refrain from commenting on any assertions made in his book.
In the midst of their purported scuffle, Prince Harry observed signs of intense anger in Prince William.
This revelation came to light during their dispute, as captured on ITV.
Harry’s upcoming memoir also contains criticisms directed at King Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla, and Kate Middleton.
Nonetheless, during his conversation with Bradby, Harry expressed his desire for “reconciliation” with his family members.
Harry highlighted the need for “accountability” as a prerequisite for reconciliation.
He emphasized that currently, only one narrative is being acknowledged, yet he believes there are multiple perspectives to consider.
In a teaser released on Thursday, when questioned about attending his father’s coronation in May, Harry refrained from committing to the event.
He elucidated, “The next move is theirs to make.
There are numerous matters to address, and I sincerely hope they are open to engaging in dialogue.”
In 2021, Harry and Markle relinquished their royal duties, a year after relocating to the United States.
They presently reside in California with their children, three-year-old Archie and one-year-old Lilibet.
“Spare” is slated for release in the US on January 10th.
