Prince Harry recently opened up about his close relationship with his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, and claimed she supported him in his legal battles. However, Buckingham Palace courtiers have expressed discontent with these remarks, saying they find them inappropriate. Harry, who frequently mentioned his special bond with the Queen in previous interviews, reiterated that he wanted to protect her from those around her. He stated that before she passed away in September 2022 at Balmoral, they had many conversations, and she supported his legal endeavors.
In a recent interview, Harry quoted the Queen as encouraging him to “see this through to the end.” Despite his assertions, reports from The Daily Mail, citing Royal expert Richard Eden, indicate that Palace courtiers are “unimpressed” by his claims. Eden’s column revealed that a courtier labeled Harry’s remarks as “tasteless” and suggested there is something “off” about the situation. The controversy arises from Harry’s disruptive behavior during the Queen’s final years, according to Eden, and remains a sore point among Royal insiders.
The situation has also brought to light previous tensions, notably Harry and Meghan Markle’s 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, where they alleged racial bias within the Royal Family. This interview aired while Prince Philip, Harry’s grandfather, was hospitalized, and he passed away four weeks later. Harry’s comments about the Queen’s support have been met with criticism, suggesting his statements exploit her memory, adding another layer to the ongoing Royal family tensions.
