Prince Harry Slams 'Villain' Stepmom Camilla For Alleged Ties To 'British Press'

In the latest of his controversial interviews, Prince Harry has finally spoken about Queen Consort Camilla directly, saying she's "dangerous." Harry's criticism of his stepmother crosses a redline his father, King Charles III, had previously set. He spoke about Camilla's poor public image due to the infamous affair and said she sacrificed him on her publicity altar to help her image.

During a previous ITV interview, the Duke said that he would no longer share details of his communication with Prince William. This announcement was a bit shocking, considering he's shared a lot of their correspondence with the public recently. He also clarified his previous statements about the royal family being racist, saying they were more of an "unconscious bias."

The Prince's memoir, Spare, has been released in Spain already and will soon be available in the UK.

While on on CBS's 60 Minutes, Prince Harry finally addressed his stepmother, Queen Consort Camilla, heavily criticizing her. Criticisms of Camilla are a red line that his father, King Charles, has clearly established in the past. In Harry's memoir Spare, he wrote that Camilla had sacrificed him on "her personal PR altar."

The Prince also revealed to the world that he and his brother Prince William asked their father not to marry Camilla. He then accused his stepmother of scheming her way into a marriage with Charles and then into securing her position as Queen Consort. He said, via Daily Mail, "She was the villain, she was a third person in the marriage, and she needed to rehabilitate her image."

Harry continued, "That made her dangerous because of the connections that she was forging within the British press. And there was open willingness on both sides to trade information and with a family built on hierarchy, and with her on the way to being Queen Consort, there was going to be people or bodies left in the street because of that."

During a previous interview with ITV's Tom Bradby, Prince Harry revealed that he would no longer share information from his communication with Prince William. The statements clearly contradict the multiple interviews and documentaries he and his wife, Meghan, have given about her interactions with other members of the royal family.

Prince Harry also said that he has no desire to hurt his family and clarified his previous statements on the alleged racism against his son Archie and his skin color. Bradby mentioned the 2021 Oprah interview where the statements were made, saying, "You accused members of your family of racism."

Harry responded, "No I didn't. The British press said that." He then clarified that the comments the anonymous senior royal made about Archie were an "unconscious bias." Bradby seemed shocked by the Duke's words, and according to the Daily Mail, experts have since stated that the Prince failed to understand the words he used clearly.

During the interview with Bradby, Prince Harry also said he knows his family was "complicit" in the painful experiences and the suffering inflicted on Meghan during her time in the UK. According to the Daily Mail, he also compared the royal family to "abusers" and hinted that they contributed to the trashing of his and Meghan's reputations.

The Duke of Sussex suggested that their actions forced the move to California, and his family has "shown no willingness to reconcile." Prince Harry spoke about the heavy stereotyping that Meghan suffered after he formally introduced her to the Royal Family as his fiancé. He said she was treated poorly because they only saw her as an "American actress, divorced, biracial."

Spare, the highly controversial memoir, has already been released early in Spain bookstores and will be available in the UK and other countries from Tuesday. In shared excerpts from the memoir, Harry wrote about how he and William pleaded with King Charles not to marry Camilla.

During the interview with Anderson Cooper, Harry mentioned it again, saying that he and William "didn't think it was necessary. We thought it would do more harm than good." The memoir also contains more insider information about Harry and Meghan's interactions with King Charles, Prince William, and Camilla.
