In his memoir Spare, he alleged that his brother Prince William had a physical altercation with him after calling Meghan \u201crude.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>When they got to America, the Duke and Duchess sat down for an explosive interview with Oprah and claimed that certain members of the family were worried how dark Prince Archie, Harry and Meghan\u2019s first child, would be. <\/p>\n<p>Now, Harry has recently made things worse with his claim that the ruling against him in his security related case was an \u201cestablished stitch-up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Julie Cobalt. a coach, mediator and trainer specializing in family dynamics, has shared how she thinks the Prince should\u2019ve handled the rift.<\/p>\n<p>She told Hello! magazine: &#8220;Publicly criticizing your family, especially in a memoir, virtually guarantees defensiveness and further distance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It also strips you of control over how your message is received,\u201d she explained. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Harry&#8217;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,&#8221; she added. <\/p>\n<p>She argued that making public statements \u201ccomplicates the path&#8221; to reconciliation.<\/p>\n<p>She explained: &#8220;You also risk misinterpretation. Photos, headlines, or quotes taken out of context can inflame things further.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Public sharing can feel like control and clarity, but it often replaces resolution with reinforcement,\u201d she concluded. <\/p>\n<p>This comes after Harry lost his High Court appeal against his downgraded security, which means he\u2019ll continue to get security on a case-by-case basis in the U.K. <\/p>\n<p>After the ruling, he sat down for an interview with the BBC and made comments about his dynamic with his family.<\/p>\n<p>He shared that King Charles doesn\u2019t speak to him anymore due to the security case. He also noted that he wants to reconcile with his family, but noted that the ruling felt like a &#8220;good old-fashioned establishment stitch-up&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>In response to Prince Harry\u2019s remarks, Buckingham Palace released a statement, saying: &#8220;All these issues have been examined repeatedly and meticulously by the courts, with the same conclusion on each occasion.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry\u2019s replaced healing with headlines in rift with Royal Family Prince Harry\u2019s feud with the Royal Family&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":125396,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7718,7794,5105,7710,519,448,10513],"class_list":{"0":"post-125395","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-harry","9":"tag-prince","10":"tag-royal","11":"tag-royal-families","12":"tag-royal-family","13":"tag-royals","14":"tag-why"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114557461695856815","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125395"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125395\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/125396"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
