The Princess of Wales’ uncle, Gary Goldsmith, has claimed that Prince Harry’s book Spare has made the “gaping chasm between [Harry and the royal family] unbridgeable”.
Writing in the Daily Mail, Goldsmith said: “Harry has launched this precision missile at his own father, brother and niece. He has unmasked himself as the consummate hypocrite, endlessly claiming alleged breaches of privacy — then disclosing confidential conversations about highly personal matters involving his own niece. He both courts the media, granting interviews to boost his book sales, and reviles it for its ’intrusion’ into his life.
”Few people have bought into Harry’s fractious and peevish book — and, in writing it, I’m afraid he has overstepped the line.
”Will his family ever forgive him? I doubt it.”
