Prince Harry recently sat down for his first major interview since his court case against Mirror Group Newspapers, where he opened up about the reason why his wife Meghan has not returned to the UK with him. According to Harry, it is still too dangerous for Meghan to be in the UK, especially with their recent move to the US.
During the interview, which was a part of ITV's documentary 'Tabloids on Trial', Harry was asked if his legal battles with the press have brought more attention to him. In response, he stated that there is already enough attention on him and his wife, and that the press has pushed him too far. He also revealed that his fight against the press played a central role in destroying his relationship with his family.
"It got to a point where you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't," Harry said. "I don't think there's anyone better suited and placed in the world to see this through than myself. It's still dangerous, and all it takes is one person to act on what they read in the press, whether it's with a knife or acid. These are genuine concerns for me, and it's one of the reasons why I won't bring my wife back to this country."
When asked about his claim that the late Queen, his grandmother who passed away in 2022, supported his actions against News Group Newspapers, publisher of The Sun and News of the World, Harry responded by saying, "I wish we had more conversations before she passed. She was very supportive of my actions. She knew how much this meant to me and she's still out there, supporting me and seeing this through until the end."
In a witness statement, Harry had mentioned that the late monarch wanted media mogul Rupert Murdoch to apologize. He is currently bringing a case against News Group Newspapers over alleged unlawful information-gathering. However, he clarified that this did not involve allegations of phone hacking, and a full trial is set to take place in January.
Harry also pointed out the role that tabloids played in causing a rift between him and his family. When asked why his family did not fight in the same way that he did, he responded by saying, "I think everything that has played out has shown people the truth of the matter. For me, the mission continues, and while it may have caused a rift, I believe it's for the greater good."
The documentary also features other celebrities such as Hugh Grant, Charlotte Church, Paul Gascoigne, and former prime minister Gordon Brown, who all shared their thoughts on the role of tabloids in the media. It's clear that Harry is determined to see this through for his own reasons and for the greater good, and he hopes to make a positive impact on the media industry. The documentary 'Tabloids on Trial' is now available on ITVX.
