Abuse from the RF my arse. I've watched back that Colbert (who is a POS) interview.
In the Colbert interview he's moaning about the press leaks of his book and intimates the RF as being somehow complicit in this, although never elaborates. Press leaks? Um, no, that would be a Spanish bookshop putting them on the shelf early and journalists getting hold of it.
He says he was forced to flee in 2020. He doesn't say why. He says the press coverage of them after they left was relentless because they were no longer under institutional control. He says "they" (doesn't specify who "they" is) always knew his wife would leave because of the way that "they" (who ffs?) were abusing her, but he thinks the most embarrassing thing (for who? Who knows?) is that he decided to leave with her.
Colbert asks if the intent (whose? who knows) was to make her leave of to break her spirit so she'd be easier to control. Harry says both, he's never witnessed the level of abuse and harassment over his wife. Still not saying by whom. He says other members of the family have experienced it, but to see it happen the way it happened...."I was naive going into it, I didn't realise the British press would be so bigoted, and even if I had, I wouldn't have accepted or understood how they could get away with it."
He then claims "unnamed sources" were feeding stories about him and his wife to the press. Gives no specifics. Goes on to claim that the fracture between him and William has been pinned on Meghan, intimating but not stating that they were not close to begin with. Says there's no way the distance between him and William would be the same if Diana was alive. Invades his brother's privacy a bit. Talking about Diana.
Colbert suggests his family were not good at giving hugs. Harry says he's good at them now. He also says he'd always tell people when he was young he was fine because it meant there would be no follow up questions about how he was feeling. Says no therapy culture in the UK in 1997.
Discussion about his childhood belief Diana was alive and hiding. More therapy discussion. Says writing the book has made him vulnerable and stronger. Talking about his want of community. Says that as soon as he started doing therapy, he and his family couldn't understand each other. Says his family's mindset is dangerous because of the toxic relationship between the family and the press. More accusations that the palace were leaking to the press. No specifics.
Frostbitten todger discussion. A whole 5 1/2 minutes on this.
Talking about QEII and her wit. Talking about the ginger gene in his children standing up to his wife's genes (not racist at all).
Talking about what he and MM do at home. Watching The Crown.
End of interview.
Not seeing the abuse meted out to him by his family. Just the usual vague and wholly unsubstantiated accusations about press leaks.
