Prince Harry fails to respond as he's quizzed on whether he spoke to the Queen on her 96th birthday: Duke of Sussex ignores questions from reporters amid fallout from claims that he wants to 'protect' Her Majesty
Prince Harry was seen staring straight (pictured main) ahead as reporters shouted out the question while sitting in the back seat of a golf buggy that had slowed for a barrier to be opened. While his bodyguards looked on disapprovingly, he did not react to the queries asked by a small media group after leaving a powerlifting event for the Invictus Games in the Netherlands. He also failed to answer on whether he regretted his NBC TV appearance that has seen him criticised by royal staff as delusional. It came as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also dodged a question today from a female broadcaster who shouted: 'Sir, does the Queen need protecting?' Harry, who also met with British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace in The Hague today, appeared to issue a veiled warning to those closest to the Queen when interviewed by a US network, saying he wanted to make sure his grandmother was 'protected' and had 'the right people around her'. The fallout from his incendiary interview continued as Her Majesty (inset, in a new portrait released for her birthday) celebrated turning 96 today while happily ensconced in her treasured Sandringham estate - also beloved by Prince Philip - as Buckingham Palace pointedly chose not to comment on more provocation from her Montecito-based grandson.
How Harry turned to therapists from MI6 in his mental health battle, SENT BACK a birthday gift from Charles and had explosive rows with William: RICHARD KAY on new book that says so much about the Prince's state of mind
Twenty five years after the princess's tragic, unexpected death, the formidable Tina Brown, author of the explosive Diana Chronicles, which was an early Naughties sensation, has returned to the fray. Her new book, The Palace Papers: Inside The House Of Windsor - The Truth And The Turmoil, examines how that quest to ensure the monarchy is not simply a platform for family members to seek public acclaim has turned out. Even a cursory look at the royal landscape would suggest things have not gone entirely to plan. While no conventional royal historian, Brown tackles her subjects with the same brio she brought to her years as a highly regarded magazine editor, first with Tatler, then with Vanity Fair and the New Yorker. Her access to those who flit around the royals gives her writing an edgy authenticity. The book, she says, is the result of two years' work - and impeccable sources. 'I talked to more than 120 people, many of whom have been intimately involved with the senior royals and their households during the turbulent years since Diana died,' she explained. The result is a tour d'horizon of the recent travails of the Royal Family, which is both critical of and surprisingly sympathetic to the figure at the heart of the story: the 96-year-old Queen, whose head-in-the-sand approach or 'ostriching' she often mocks.
