Prince Harry: ‘The tabloids wanted me to be single’
In the testimony, Prince Harry describes his feeling of powerlessness. “It felt like the tabloids thought I was theirs.” The press had hoped for a “public collapse” from him when he was in his early 20s. “I always felt like the tabloids wanted me to be single because then I was much more interesting to them and they could sell more newspapers,” Harry is quoted as saying in the court documents.
The press then tried to create distrust – a mechanism that, according to Harry, would still be used with him despite his marriage to Meghan Markle (41). “This twisted goal is still being pursued to this day, even though I am now married.” NGN ordered a judge on April 25 to drop the case. Prince Harry not only accuses the press of having negatively influenced his relationships, he also blames his family. That is also said to have played a role in Meghan’s cancellation for the coronation, because “They made sure she didn’t come.” Sources used: standard.co.uk
