Prince Harry launches searing attack on Camilla, calling her ‘dangerous’ in 60 Minutes interview

Prince Harry today launched another extraordinary attack on King Charles’s wife Camilla, calling her “dangerous” and a “villain”, while continuing his publicity book for his explosive memoir Spare.

The Duke of Sussex, 38, will take aim at the queen consort while speaking to CBS News 60 minutes host Anderson Cooper, who questioned Harry about several very damaging accusations he made about Camilla in the book’s pages.

Harking back to a 1995 interview in which his mother, Princess Diana, referred to Camilla as the ‘third person in their marriage’, Harry says this admission made the now queen consort a ‘villain’, adding: ‘She needed to rehabilitate her image.

According to Harry, who also reveals in his book that he and William ‘begged’ their father not to marry Camilla, this desire to transform her public image made her ‘dangerous’.

She accuses her stepmother of “trading information” with the press in an attempt to get more positive stories written about her, before sensationalizing that her “connections” with the media would end with “people or bodies left on the street.” .

‘[Her need to rehabilitate her image] it made her dangerous because of the connections she was forging within the British press,’ he told Cooper, according to an official transcript of the interview, which DailyMail.com received before the interview began airing.

‘And there was an open willingness on both sides to exchange information. And with a family based on hierarchy, and with her, on her way to being queen consort, there would be people or bodies on the street because of it.

Princess Diana’s interview with the BBC’s Martin Bashir in 1995 marked the first time she publicly addressed claims that Charles and Camilla had an affair during her marriage to the then-Prince of Wales.

At the time, she sensationally told Bashir, “There were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.”

As the Duke lashes out at his closest relatives again in the 60 Minutes interview, just over an hour after his meeting with British TV presenter Tom Bradby finished airing, DailyMail.com can also reveal:

• He claims he was “not invited” on the plane his family took to Balmoral upon learning the Queen was unwell
• He admits he used to watch videos of his mother, Diana, and ‘go through memories of her’ in an attempt to make himself cry
• He says that his brother, Prince William, initially refused to believe that Diana was really dead and that they both believed that she would “call us and we would join her”.
• Reveals he took psychedelic drugs like ayahuasca and psilocybin as ‘experimental treatments’, says they ‘wiped the… misery of loss’ for him
• He believes that psychedelics can ‘work like medicine’ for those who are ‘suffering a great deal of loss, grief or trauma’
• He suggests that he and Meghan will never give up their titles because ‘what difference would it make?’
• He defends his decision to publicly voice his grievances against his family, suggesting that public attacks are the only “language they might understand.”
• He admits that he has not spoken to his brother or his father ‘for a while’

Harry also claims that what he saw as Camilla’s desire to ‘be in the front page’ [and] have positive stories written about [her]’ stemmed from his family’s belief that positive media coverage would ‘enhance his reputation or increase the chances of the British public accepting him as monarch’.

‘If you are led to believe, as a family member, that being on the front page, having positive headlines, positive stories written about you, will improve your reputation or increase your chances of being accepted as a monarch by the British public, then that’s it. what you are going to do,’ he adds.

The duke’s sensational public attack on Camilla is the latest in a series of criticisms he has leveled at his stepmother, having painted what Cooper describes as a “very unflattering portrait” of her in his explosive memoir Spare, which was released. accidentally published in Spain. In the past week.

In the book, Harry makes similar accusations against Camilla regarding her alleged “connections” to the press, accusing her of leaking information to the media as part of a “campaign” to seize the Crown.

In an extraordinary passage from his autobiography, the Duke of Sussex writes: “Shortly after our private meetings with her, he began to develop his long-term strategy, a campaign aimed at marriage and, eventually, the Crown (with the blessing of from our father, we supposed).

Stories began to appear in all the papers about his conversations with Willy, stories recounting many little details, none of which came from my brother, of course.

The duke also claims that he and his brother William ‘begged’ the then-Prince of Wales not to remarry after Princess Diana’s death, fearing she was his ‘evil stepmother’.

During his 60 Minutes interview, Harry said that both he and William didn’t think it was “necessary” for Charles to marry Camilla, telling Cooper: “We didn’t think it was necessary.” We thought that he was going to cause more harm than good and that if he was now with her person, that… surely that is enough. Why go that far when you don’t necessarily have to?

‘We wanted him to be happy. And we saw how happy he was with her. So at that point, it was, “Okay.”

Charles had tried to win over his children before asking the public to accept Camilla, the book claims. Harry then shockingly says that meeting the soon-to-be queen consort for the first time was like a “shot”. He later says that ultimately he and William approved of Camilla.

He writes: ‘I remember wondering… if she would be cruel to me; if she were like all the evil stepmothers in the stories.

Prince Harry says taking psychedelic DRUGS helped him deal with ‘grief’ and ‘trauma’ from Princess Diana’s death

Prince Harry has acknowledged that the use of psychedelics helped him deal with the “grief” and “trauma” he felt after the tragic death of his mother, Princess Diana.

The Duke of Sussex, 38, called psychedelics such as ayahuasca and magic mushrooms his ‘medicine’ after the great ‘loss’ of his mother in 1997.

While Harry was only 12 when Diana tragically died in a car accident, he admitted in his next book, Spare, that he struggled to come to terms with her sudden passing.

He has now shared more details about his mother’s death, explaining that he only cried once over his mother’s death, when her coffin was placed on the ground, and that he was plagued with guilt for feeling that he was not being emotional enough for her. death. during years.

But the former royal said using psychedelics as he got older finally “eliminated the idea” that he needed to be sad to show he “missed” his mother.

“I would never advise people to do this recreationally,” he said during the hour-long tell-all interview.

“But doing it with the right people if you’re dealing with a great deal of loss or grief or trauma, then these things have a way of working as medicine.

‘For me, they cleaned the windshield, the windshield, the misery of loss. They took away that idea that she had in her head that she… needed to cry to show my mother that I missed her. When in reality, all she wanted was for me to be happy.

Prince Harry reveals he used to watch videos of his mother Princess Diana in a desperate attempt to CRY over her death

Prince Harry candidly admitted that he used to watch videos of his late mother, Princess Diana, and “gather memories of her” in an attempt to grieve over her death.

The 38-year-old revealed his ‘guilt’ for not being able to shed a tear over Diana’s tragic passing in 1997.

“There was a weight on my chest that I felt for so many years that I could never cry,” he told host Anderson Cooper, according to an interview transcript DailyMail.com received before the release of the pre-recorded interview. .

“So I was constantly trying to find a way to cry, but… even sitting on my couch and going through all the memories I could muster about my mother.” And sometimes she would watch videos online.

However, Harry says that, as hard as he tried, he “couldn’t” shed a tear, something that filled him with “guilt” for years.

Harry explained during the meeting that he believes he did not grieve over Diana’s death because he had “refused to accept that she was gone”.

He added that there was a big “weight on his chest” that he “felt for so many years” from not shedding more tears, and that he even tried to watch videos of her to express his emotions.

“I was constantly trying to find a way to cry, even sitting on my couch and going through all the memories I could muster about my mother,” he added. “And sometimes I would watch videos online.”
