JAKARTA - Prince Harry received news leaks depicting him and his wife Meghan as an evil party. The news made him think the British Empire had no desire to make peace regarding the palace's rift.
Harry, 38, said he still wanted to get back together with his father, King Charles III, and brother William, the successor to the British throne, based on footage from a television interview that will air Sunday, days before the prince's memoir was published.
Harry and Meghan shared their experiences in the British royal family in a Netflix documentary series last month that tells the story of the reasons behind their departure to North America in 2020.
"The way it doesn't have to be like this, leaking and creating news," Harry said, referring to the news about the breakdown of relations at the palace.
"I want my family, not an institution," added Harry, quoted from AFP, Monday, January 2 local time.
"It feels better for us to be considered criminals because they don't show a desire to make up," Harry said without specifying who "they are".
"I want to get back together with my father. I want to get back together with my brother," said Harry.
Ahead of the publication of his book on January 10, Harry was interviewed by British television and CBS in the United States, which will air on Sunday.
Quoted from ANTARA, the six-episode Netflix documentary series and airing in December provided the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, their official designation, to reveal the reasons behind their withdrawal from royal duties and reasons for going to California.
The spectacle made them very disliked in England, where Harry and Meghan are often described by the media as spoiled and selfish children.
There was nothing horrendous to be revealed in the series, but Harry and Meghan commented on what the media had done to them, who were accused of disrupting their lives and triggering miscarriages.
Harry said he was surprised when his brother shouted at him when his family gathered in 2020 in front of Queen Elizabeth II.
The couple also accused William and his wife Kate of being behind the negative news of Harry and Meghan in the media because they were considered to be taking attention.
According to the Sunday Times media, Harry's book attacked William more than Charles.
"Everything is revealed," said a source familiar with the memoir.
"Charles looked better than I thought, but tough enough for William, in particular, even Kate got a little criticism," the source said.
"There are details of the fight between these two brothers. I myself can't see how Harry and William can make peace after this," the source told the Sunday Times.
