Inside the monarchy, every word, gesture, and even body language is scrutinized under a magnifying glass. But when it veers into family politics, every word counts—and can easily be misinterpreted. Prince Harry seems fully aware of how sharp that line can be.
Not an isolated comment
Prince Harry’s remark about protecting his grandmother wasn’t the first of its kind. A year earlier, in his explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey, Harry had already said the Queen was receiving “bad advice” from those surrounding her. He didn’t name names, but his message was crystal clear: his distance from the crown isn’t just physical—it’s strategic.
In that context, outlets like The Express quoted royal commentator Giles Coren, who wasted no time responding with sarcasm. He labeled Prince Harry “the controlling grandson” and joked that without Harry watching over her, the Queen might marry someone inappropriate or end up fighting with the entire family.
Yet despite the noise, Prince Harry stayed composed. In the same interview, he shared how he and Meghan sat down for tea with Queen Elizabeth and made her laugh. “It was lovely chatting with her,” Harry said with a warm smile. He then added that his home is in California. Where they’ve been “welcomed with open arms” by a community that already feels like their own.

The reality is, Prince Harry continues to play his own game—with alternate rules and a split audience. Some see him as a rebel with a cause. Others, as the one who walked away without warning. But as long as Harry keeps speaking out, his days beyond Buckingham will continue to generate headlines with the rhythm of a sporting saga.
