It's a comfort to me that I come here and read so many people feel as I do that Harry is not the bad guy in this story. I hope he finds peace and happiness.

This is the first comment section I've seen where people actually acknowledge the fact that this is a traumatised man. Regardless of your opinion on the way he's been, regardless of whether or not you think he's disrespected the institution (and it is an institution, the firm), this is a traumatised man.

"As if I was a middle person for their grief"

My God that cut deep. This is so sad.
This is a serious trauma for a child, this really messes up your head. I'm very surprised that Harry grew up to be this stable and wise young man. And to be honest this guy is the healthiest thing that has come out of the Royal Family in a time! 🌺

Most people do not go through such trauma in their childhood and then to have to accept the woman who caused his mother such grief as her replacement would have added to his trauma and distress. I am not surprised the two boys pleaded with their father not to marry Camilla. Such a tragedy…

[arlenehayles]

He is speaking from the heart and I am praying for both families to be healed and made whole.

Harry is in deep pain. I’m happy he found love. I send him blessings & good wishes. I loved his wonderful mom!

I can relate to most of what he’s saying, because grief plays out in different ways for different people, but it is still grief. When my dad passed away, it didn’t hit me for months after he had passed, and then I spiralled, I had to take meds to sleep every night. I struggled for years. I had to get help. Part of the reason was, the day my father died, I had nobody around me to comfort me, except to tell me, to be strong for my mother. It was as if, my mother was the only one who lost her husband. People overlook the children that lost their parent, I was told to be strong.. but nobody ever asked me how I was or how I felt. I had nobody to talk to.. I could stay strong only for so long.

He was such a cute little boy . Obviously loved his mother and was close to her .

[BLOXKETCHUM]

I don't understand some people. They see what happened to this little boy Harry. And now they judge him wierd and sad

[Jorgie]

There is no "aloneness" that compares to a child that has lost a mother. A child feels that aloneness and rejects it. "She's not dead, she's just pretending". The aloneness, the not having a mother, is an abyss that you don't want to accept as your new lot in life.

[tabatta]

I just don't understand why so much hate against him... he is telling his truth about his family... his family has the right to share their truth as well.

My father passed when I was just 13 from a car crash. Even buried him on my 14th birthday. I cried the moment I found out he was gone. I’m 30 now, and still cry. The pain just doesn’t leave. Just gets quiet.

[ctaccv]

I always found bizarre the way grown adults begged to touch them.... Embarrassing. I remember a women who couldn't even let go of William's hand, while crying "oh my God".... Just so... Cringy.

[dunebuggie]

I have only cried once for my mother as well. She died after 5 years fighting cancer. There is something so permanent and shocking about losing your mother. I think it is beyond measure.

[maunashakti]

Oh God! I cried, cried and cried feeling the trauma Harry went through. I just had this realization him & his mom had deeper bond. He didn’t cry for the longest & I know so well about it. I hardly cried when i was told my dad passed & still haven’t. Probably crying might define accepting the fact so instead taking a detour on subconscious to denial. Now, all I am wanting is a movie, a movie with Brad Pitt as Prince Harry. Can’t think of a child actor with depth of emotion who can play 12 years old Prince Harry. Harry, mom is lookin over you all the time. You’re an exceptionally beautiful soul.

[la]

is a 12 and 15 yr old expected to shake those strangers' hands after their mother's passing???? With a smile on their faces??? That's heartless. Just heartless.

[jennyk]

I wish all the hate against Harry an Megan would stop.

[debbiebishop]

I was nine when my dad passed. He had a heart attack in front of me. I watched him die. I remember looking into his eyes as he passed. It changed me forever.

[love_myfam]

So much respect for this young man willing to be transparent and honest about some of his deepest hurts. Eye opening of how devastating it waa to loose of his mom at a tender age. Prayers for this entire family - royal or not they are human just like any of us and their struggles are real and the pain is relatable.

[mooncatandberyl]

at that time i thought it was cruel and disrespectful that the boys were being forced to do all this, meet the public and walk behind the casket, without being able to show their grief for their mother. Now IDK how much of this was forced upon them and how much was their choice, funerals are meant to be private and personal for the family, even after her death diana and her boys had no privacy when it came to her funeral, on the other hand broadcasting her funeral showed how much the public loved her and mourned her.
