Prince William 'Was As Low As I'd Ever Seen Him' Following Prince Harry's Oprah Winfrey Interview, Author Claims
One year ago, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle told the world all about what it was like living in the U.K. and being part of the royal family. During the chat with Oprah Winfrey, the pair didn't hold back and talked smack about Prince William and Prince Charles — something the two still haven't forgotten about to this day.
After the tell-all, the 39-year-old prince was "as low as I'd ever seen him," biographer Robert Hardman wrote in a new book called Queen of Our Times: The Life of Elizabeth II.
“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," the excerpt reads.
Despite the damage that was done, Prince William may be looking to make up with Harry, 37.
"We have to hope that even the most subtle words from William here and there act as little signals to Harry," Duncan Larcombe noted. "It’s as if he’s saying, ‘Look, come on. Let’s sort this out.’ As the older sibling, William is sensible enough to know that he has to fix things.”
But the author mentioned that since the dad-of-two is planning to release a memoir later this year, it could make William rethink everything.
"We don’t yet know if or how strongly he’ll slate his father and brother in the book," Larcombe shared. "It’s hard to imagine what might be coming, but until that book hits the shelves, the stalemate is highly likely to continue.”
In July, Harry announced his latest endeavor. "I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become. I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story — the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned — I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think," he said in a press release. "I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far and excited for people to read a firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful."
