Can Prince Harry Reconcile With The Royal Family? Experts Weigh In.

If there’s one person Prince Harry isn’t going to sever ties with, it’s his therapist.

In his new tell-all memoir, “Spare,” the Duke of Sussex portrays his therapist as one of the few people truly in his corner.

Harry writes that his therapist was the first person he called after a verbal fight with his older brother, Prince William, turned physical. (William had stormed into Harry’s home at Kensington Palace and labeled Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, “difficult,” “rude” and “abrasive,” according to the younger prince.)

Instead of Markle, it was the therapist whom the Duke of Sussex reached out to: “Thank God she answered. I apologized for the intrusion, told her I didn’t know who else to call,” he writes. “I told her I’d had a fight with Willy, he’d knocked me to the floor. I looked down and told her that my shirt was ripped, my necklace was broken.”

Interestingly, Prince William ― the person who receives the lion’s share of Harry’s ire in “Spare” ― was the family member who initially recommended Harry try therapy. Years later, Harry says that William has changed his tune and once feared that his younger brother was being “brainwashed” by therapy.

According to its description, the book is written with “raw, unflinching honesty,” and that’s certainly not an overstatement: The fight between him and William may be one of the most explosive details, but Harry airs his grievances about nearly everyone in the family.

He calls William his “beloved brother” and simultaneously his “archnemesis,” bent on making sure the order of succession was deeply felt by his brother growing up.

He accuses his stepmother, Camilla Parker Bowles (now the queen consort) of leaking stories about him and William and turning his room at Clarence House into her closet as soon as he moved out. (“I tried not to care. But especially the first time I saw it, I cared,” the 38-year-old Duke of Sussex wrote.)

His father, King Charles III, he says, carried a “pitiful” teddy bear around with him as an adult and pleaded with his sons to reconcile at their grandfather Prince Philip’s funeral in 2021…
