Prince Harry feels 'wronged' by royal family as feud worsens

Prince Harry has been at war with the royal family for years and one expert believes tensions have risen following his latest bombshell interview.

The Duke of Sussex made the shocking admission that his father, King Charles, won't speak to him. In an interview with the BBC, Harry also admitted he is desperate for a reunion with the royal family.

Conflict coach Julie Cobalt has suggested Harry took the wrong approach if he genuinely hopes to reconcile with his family.

"Publicly criticizing your family, especially in a memoir, virtually guarantees defensiveness and further distance. It also strips you of control over how your message is received," she said.

The expert added, "If Harry's goal was reconciliation, a better strategy would have been to work with a conflict coach or mediator. Reconnection requires honest conversation, not public narration."

Speaking to Hello! Magazine, Cobalt suggested Harry has "complicated" any chance of a reunion by involving the public in the royal feud.

"You also risk misinterpretation. Photos, headlines, or quotes taken out of context can inflame things further," she stated.

The expert suggested the Duke of Sussex did have good reason for speaking with the BBC. "People often turn to a third party, whether it's a friend, neighbor, or social media, not just to vent but to be validated," she explained.

Cobalt said Harry's validation from the public might "reinforce a sense of being wronged," but she warned it does have consequences.

The expert explained, "It's much easier to stay in the role of victim than to look inward and explore your own contribution to the problem. Public sharing can feel like control and clarity, but it often replaces resolution with reinforcement."

During Harry's interview, he said, "I would love reconciliation with my family. There's no point in continuing to fight anymore."

"Life is precious. I don't know how much longer my father has," he remarked, referring to King Charles. "He won't speak to me because of this security stuff, but it would be nice to reconcile."
