It was Prince Harry's words about his father Prince Charles that really got the world talking as the Duke of Sussex expressed his sadness at feeling 'let down'.
'I feel really let down because he's been through something similar, he knows what the pain feels like,' Harry said of his father. 'I will always love him but there's a lot of hurt that's happened.'
He later continued: 'There's a lot to work through there. I feel really let down because he's been through something similar. He knows what pain feels like, and Archie's his grandson. At the same time I will always love him, but there's a lot of hurt that's happened. I will continue to make it one of my priorities to try and heal that relationship, but they only know what they know.'
The royal family has not responded.
