Today: Allison Langdon blasts Prince Harry for 'hurting' the Queen

Why DOES Harry continue to give tell-all interviews when he knows it’s hurting his grandmother? Fired-up Today host Allison Langdon says what we’re all thinking about the ‘woke’ Prince – as the Queen is ‘deeply upset by his personal criticisms’

Today host Allison Langdon has blasted Prince Harry for continuing to criticise the Royal Family despite knowing he’s upsetting his grandmother the Queen.

Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, have made a series of explosive claims about the royals in recent months, culminating in his latest round of allegations in the new Apple TV+ documentary series The Me You Can’t See.

Discussing the family rift on Monday’s show, Langdon, 42, posed the question many royal watchers are asking themselves: ‘If Harry knows that he’s hurting his grandmother, why does he keep giving these interviews?’

She added that the Sussexes’ public statements attacking the Royal Family also seemingly contradict their appeals for privacy.

‘He left the UK because he wanted to get away from the press and the scrutiny and yet he can’t help being the headline,’ Langdon told ITV royal editor Chris Ship.

In a series of candid interviews with Oprah Winfrey for The Me You Can’t See, the Duke of Sussex, 36, said he and his wife, 39, felt abandoned by his relatives and this was one of their ‘biggest reasons’ for leaving for California last year.

In yet another full-frontal attack on the royals, he said: ‘Certainly now I will never be bullied into silence.

‘I thought my family would help, but every single ask, request, warning, whatever it is, just got met with total silence, total neglect.

‘We spent four years trying to make it work. We did everything that we possibly could to stay there and carry on doing the role and doing the job. But Meghan was struggling.’

He added: ‘That feeling of being trapped within the family, there was no option to leave. Eventually when I made that decision for my family, I was still told, “You can’t do this,” and it’s like, “Well, how bad does it have to get until I am allowed to do this?” She [Meghan] was going to end her life. It shouldn’t have to get to that.’

Harry also described how his wife first told him she wanted to kill herself, while six months pregnant with their son Archie, on the way to the Royal Albert Hall in London in January 2019, and she spoke to him of the ‘practicalities of how she was going to end her life’.

Harry said it reminded him of his mother’s final weeks in 1997, saying that it was when he was 13 and watching his mother’s coffin that he first thought: ‘I didn’t want the life.’

The Duke said ‘history was repeating itself’, because Princess Diana was with Dodi Fayed, who was Egyptian by birth, when she died in 1997, saying there was a real fear that he would lose Meghan too.

‘History was repeating itself,’ he told Winfrey.

‘My mother was chased to her death while she was in a relationship with someone who wasn’t white. And now look what’s happened. It’s incredibly triggering to potentially lose another woman in my life. Like, the list is growing. And it all comes back to the same people, the same business model, the same industry.’

Meanwhile, the Queen is said to be ‘deeply upset’ by what she considers a series of ‘very personal’ criticisms of her family by her wayward grandson.

One source told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Harry’s grandmother has taken this very personally and is deeply upset by what Harry has said, in particular his comments about Charles’ parenting and suggesting his father knows no better because of how he was brought up. It has been a very upsetting time.’
