“I’m not bringing Meghan back”

Prince Harry has spoken again about the conflict with his family and this time he has done so in a documentary focused on the British pressthat it’s called Tabloids On Trial (Tabloids on trial). It aired this Friday, July 25, on the ITV channel. One of the issues that Meghan Markle’s husband has dealt with and denounced is the telephone spying to which he was subjected and for which he went to court, emerging victorious. The brother of William of England has also shared the fears he feels when he returns to his country and the reason why his wife has not returned since the death of Elizabeth II.

Harry thinks of the threats that the mother of his children received in her day: “It’s still dangerous and all it takes is a lone actor, a person who reads these things and acts accordingly.”has claimed in this documentary.

The son of Charles III has lamented at the same time: “And whether it’s a knife or acid, whatever, these are things that genuinely concern me. It’s one of the reasons I won’t bring my wife back to this country.”.

Since their relationship began in 2016 and especially after their wedding in 2018, Harry has denounced the harassment suffered by the former actress Suits in the United Kingdom. After their departure to the United States in 2020, they have publicly expressed that they did not feel safe, neither themselves nor their children, every time they returned. Following this and other issues, they spoke about the mental health problems that this has brought them, being one of the reasons why they made the decision to abandon their royal roles and settle on the other side of the pond, where in their mansion in Montecito, California, they find the privacy they were looking for.

Shortly after they stepped down from royal duties, the Royal and Public Figures Safeguarding Executive Committee (RAVEC) removed their automatic entitlement to UK police security. Although the Duke of Sussex offered to cover security costs, the offer was declined and earlier this year, High Court Judge Peter Lane upheld the decision to reduce his security, although Harry plans to appeal this decision..

“The UK is my home. The UK is central to my children’s heritage and a place I want them to feel at home, just as much as where they currently live in the US.”Diana’s son told the High Court in London. “That cannot happen if there is no possibility of keeping them safe when they are on British soil.”. And he added, about Meghan: “I cannot put my wife in that danger and, given my life experiences, I am not willing to put myself in unnecessary danger.”.

The press, “a key piece” in the breakup with his family

This is another of the issues addressed in the British television documentary. It should be remembered that William of England’s brother won a major lawsuit against the Mirror Newspaper Group in December last year, something that “has caused a change”as he acknowledged in this interview, but which also motivated the “destruction of the relationship” with his environment and caused “part of the rift”.

Harry sued the group for unlawful intrusion into his privacy in order to obtain, corroborate and publish information about his personal life and relationships; and He describes his battle against the press as a “monumental victory”.

However, he regretted the situation he continues to experience: “Everything I say about my family results in a torrent of insults from the press”. In this regard, he insists that the British media have been “a key piece” in the confrontation with his family.

Partly because the son of Charles III and Lady Di thinks his family should step forward to stop certain publications about the British Royal Family: “I’ve already made it very clear that this was something that had to be done. And it would be good if we did it as a family.”.

In this sense, she encourages other members of the royal family to follow her example: “I believe, and I repeat, that from the point of view of service [a los ciudadanos] and when a public role is occupied, These are the kinds of things that need to be done for the common good. But, you know, I’m doing it for my own reasons.“.

Despite branding the British press as a “key piece” in the confrontation with his family, it must be remembered that both he and Meghan Markle have repeatedly fanned the flames since then. In their interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021 and in the Netflix documentary that arrived at the end of 2022, the dukes vented about their experiences with the royal family, whom they accused of racism. These are some of the main examples. Harry’s memoirs, published at the beginning of last year, also raised blisters: in them he speaks of a fight in which his brother attacked him, that it was he and Kate Middleton who approved his controversial Nazi costume and even the people he killed on his missions in Afghanistan (25) or the moment when King Charles III told him that he might not be his father.

Now, Harry’s new statements in the ITV documentary come as Charles III and Kate Middleton are recovering from their illnesses.While the British sovereign resumed his schedule in April, the Princess of Wales has reappeared on only two occasions since announcing her cancer: at the Trooping of the Colour in mid-June and on 14 July at the Wimbledon final, one of her favourite events where, this year, the wife of William of England presented the trophy to the Murcian champion Carlos Alcaraz.

As for Meghan, it should be noted that she did not travel with Harry to the United Kingdom when King Charles announced his illness in February. The last time she visited London was in September 2022 following the death of Elizabeth II. Since then, the Duke of Sussex has traveled to London on several occasions, but for scheduling reasons.
