A European royal has stepped forward to voice her support for Prince Harry, criticizing the way he’s been treated in the media and public eye.
Prince Harry, 40, and his wife Meghan Markle, 43, have faced ongoing tensions with the royal family in recent years. Since relocating to California in June 2020 with their two children—six-year-old Archie and three-year-old Lilibet—appearances with the rest of the royal family have been few and far between.
“He’s Just Traumatised”
But now, someone with her own experience of royal estrangement is standing up for Harry. During a recent episode of the It’s Reigning Men podcast, Princess Delphine of Belgium shared her thoughts on the Duke of Sussex with host Daniel Rosney, expressing compassion and concern.
“I think there is this thing about security. I think it’s to do with what happened to his mother,” she said. “I understand the guy. He’s just traumatised.”
She continued, “And I understand, so he’s doing these things, and everybody’s bullying him, but not thinking about his trauma. And I just find it terrible because he’s just been kind of left.”
A Deeply Personal Connection to Diana’s Legacy
Reflecting on the death of Princess Diana, the Belgian royal shared how closely she had followed Diana’s life and felt a deep sympathy for Harry.
