Prince Harry Is Reportedly ‘Heartbroken’ Over ‘Painful’ Drama With the Royal Family

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle officially stepped out of their royal life in March 2020, and they’ve started a new life in Montecito, California. Per People, Journalist and author Tom Bradby said on ITV’s Love Your Weekend that Harry is feeling some complex feelings connected to his new life.

“I think they are feeling better, yes…So are they unhappy?,” he said. “No, I think they are content, the things they are doing they are quite excited by. I think he is heartbroken by the situation with his family, you don’t necessarily need to have knowledge to know that, but I think it is true.” Bradby didn’t directly reference the reported tension between Prince William and Harry.

“The situation with the family clearly isn’t ideal and it has been a very difficult year for them all,” he said.”But are they unhappy out there? No, I don’t think that’s right, I think they are pretty happy actually, but I think they wrestle with their position in life, I think they all do. I think William does too; I don’t think he finds it easy.” He added that there are “a lot of hurt feelings on all sides.” He continued: “I think the whole thing has just been incredibly painful; that is obvious to everyone. It is painful all round, painful for everyone, difficult to manage.”

He added: “You have got to remember this isn’t just a family; it’s a firm. They are in the business of public service on a very elevated, exposed platform and to some extent, they are all locked in it together. And that creates lots of tensions that people perhaps do see relatively clearly from the outside, but at the same time they are trying to be a family and I am always acutely conscious of that and how complicated and frankly difficult it is.”

Last year, Meghan revealed on a World Mental Health Day episode of the podcast Teenager Therapy that she has experienced cyber-bullying and trolling on a level that was “almost unsurvivable.”

“In 2019 I was the most trolled person in the entire world—male or female. Now, eight months of that I wasn’t even visible. I was on maternity leave or with a baby but was able to just be manufactured and churned out. It’s almost unsurvivable.”
