Prince Harry Is 'Feeling Embarrassed & Regretful' About Oprah Winfrey Interview, Biographer Claims
Almost two months after Prince Harry spoke with Oprah Winfrey about his family, the red-headed royal isn't feeling too good about what he said on television, a biographer claims.
The dad-of-one got upset at his brood because "he's a hot-headed guy," Duncan Larcombe, author of Prince Harry: The Inside Story, told the U.K.’s Closer magazine. “Harry was clearly hurt and angry about Meghan’s experience with the royals — and used the interview to get it out."
“But after returning home, I’ve no doubt he’s been feeling embarrassed, regretful and awkward," he added. “He’s now facing the consequences. I believe he’ll regret that interview — and maybe his decision to leave the royal family."
During the tell-all, Meghan claimed someone in the royal family was "concerned" over Archie's skin color and that when the former actress was struggling with her mental health, no one wanted to help.
Harry returned home on April 12 to attend Prince Philip's funeral, but he didn't stay that long after since his wife is currently pregnant with baby No. 2. Larcombe claimed Harry was "feeling numb" heading back to California.
“You could see in his face at the funeral that he was torn,” Larcombe noted. “Coming home has reminded him of everything he’s sacrificed in recent years — and of the recent damage done."
However, it seems like Meghan is "in her element" living on the West Coast, the biographer said. “Her dream was always L.A. So these two feelings — Meghan excited for their future and Harry nostalgic for his old life — are bound to cause tension for them."
Ultimately, Larcombe believes Harry and Meghan will have to deal with bigger issues down the line.
“I can’t see how Harry can live this new life and keep things harmonious with his family,” he said. “I just don’t think that Harry will be able to live harmoniously as a part of these two worlds — the royals and the L.A. showbiz world. He’s in for a very difficult ride. There could be tough times ahead."
