Prince Harry doesn't think he is in a "fragile" state after telling the world in the documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey that he and his wife, Meghan Markle, are struggling with the media scrutiny. The Duke of Sussex learned that this is how his brother Prince William described him after watching the special.
Sources close to Prince Harry, reportedly, revealed that he feels more stronger than ever to take on the challenges. So, he's far from being fragile. The same sources also told columnist Dan Wootton that the royals are in a state of panic over the perception that they might be out of touch and are not supportive of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Wooton confirmed on ITV's Lorraine that he has gotten in touch with Prince Harry's people. He said that he doesn't want to take sides but there seems to be tension in the palace after that documentary aired in U.K., the U.S., Australia and other territories.
He also said that he talked with other people close to the royal family who have been furious over a statement that said Prince Harry and Meghan "single-handedly modernized the monarchy." Wootton said that the sentiment was that, if there's one person who did this, it would be Her Majesty, who has done a lot of work on behalf of the royal family even in her old age.
The day after the documentary aired, the palace sources confirmed with BBC that Prince William was concerned for his brother and Meghan Markle because of they seemed to be in a "fragile place." Prince William also hoped that the Sussex couple is alright after Prince Harry bared that details of his private life and his relationship with his brother.
In the documentary, Prince Harry seemingly confirmed to journalist Tom Bradby what the press has been speculating for months. Stuff between Prince Charles and Princess Diana's sons have inevitably happened and Prince Harry said that like any siblings, they have good days and bad days.
There were reports stating that Prince William was furious at his brother for making such a statement. However, other sources told The Telegraph that the Duke of Cambridge was, in fact, feeling sympathy for his brother.
The insider said that Prince Harry knows his brother will be "there for him and vice versa." Prince Harry acknowledged this in the interview but he also said that he and Prince William are now on different paths of their lives.
