The British royal family has been under heavy attack in recent months. And the publication of Prince Harry’s memoirs seems to mark, after the Netflix series, a kind of apotheosis… where everything is finally unpacked in broad daylight! With a big hiccup… initially and officially scheduled for release on January 10, the book “Le Suppléant” did indeed “accidentally” and widely leaked this Thursday, January 5. However, the revelations about the royal family are terrible. Despite everything, Buckingham is silent. “Never complain, Never explain”? It took Queen Elizabeth to close her eyes definitively for this great unpacking, which is the tabloids’ favorite, to explode into broad daylight. Recently, Harry confided in the American channel CBS as well as the British channel ITV. Interviews to be broadcast this Sunday, January 8.

“It becomes a point where silence is betrayal”
In an excerpt from the show 60 Minutes of CBS, Harry denounces the complicit silence of Buckingham, accusing the monarchy of “give ready-made information” to journalists, then to refuse to comment officially on the articles which attack his relationship with Meghan Markle. “When we’ve been told for six years: ‘We can’t make a statement to protect you’, but (which Buckingham Palace does) for other family members. It becomes a point where silence is betrayal”, he says.He also specifies that he tried to reconnect with his family in vain: “Every time I tried to do it privately there were briefings, leaks and articles against me and my wife”regrets the 38-year-old prince. “You know, the family motto is ‘never complain, never explain’, but that’s just a motto.” And in a short trailer released on Monday January 2 by ITV, the Duke of Sussex also underlines that he wants “reconnect” with his father King Charles III and his brother William, with whom he is at odds, but whom he does not see “no desire to reconcile”. “I want a family, not an institution”, insists the father of Archie and Lilibet. “They think it’s better to kind of keep us like bad guys.” Open reviews that fall right in the middle of shocking revelations. Over the pages unveiled, we learn of the violent altercations between the two brothers, the youngest’s taking of cocaine, his first time with a mature woman, the scandal of his Nazi costume encouraged, according to him, by Kate and William, the fact that he would have killed 25 people in his military past… Buckingham, for the time being, prefers to be silent indeed… the secular institution must know how to manage this kind of crisis. For now, she is preparing her next meeting: the coronation of Charles III, scheduled for May 6.
