Prince Harry has stirred up controversy within the royal family yet again, this time by impersonating his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, during the filming of the upcoming BBC documentary “Prince Philip, The Family Remembers.”
The documentary, originally intended to celebrate the Duke of Edinburgh’s 100th birthday, has now become a tribute following Prince Philip’s passing in April.
Scheduled to air on Wednesday, 22 September at 9 pm on BBC One, the program features intimate interviews with the late Duke’s children and grandchildren, sharing cherished memories.
During his segment of the documentary, Prince Harry was shown images of his grandfather’s aviation exploits, sparking nostalgic reflections on Prince Philip’s passion for flying.
The footage captures Harry perusing Philip’s flight logs from a 1983 Royal Tour, where he humorously imagined his grandmother sipping tea in the back of the plane, reacting to turbulence with a playful scold towards Philip.
The documentary also delves into the shared interest in aviation among family members, including Prince William, George, Charlotte, and Louis.
In a candid moment, Prince Harry expressed his admiration for the enduring love and partnership between the Queen and Prince Philip, emphasizing how much he misses his grandfather’s sense of humor.
Reflecting on the Queen’s strength and resilience, Harry acknowledged the profound bond shared by the royal couple, rooted in a lifelong commitment to service.
The documentary promises exclusive insights into the personal lives of the Royals, offering glimpses into Buckingham Palace and the Duke’s private spaces.
However, behind the scenes, tensions are brewing as reports surface of the Queen’s displeasure with Prince Harry’s recent public statements.
Sources reveal that the Queen, along with Prince Charles and Prince William, found Harry’s remarks hurtful and damaging to their strained relationship.
The Royals are said to be dismayed by Harry’s perceived insensitivity, especially in light of the Queen’s ongoing mourning for Prince Philip.
Despite the rift, the Queen still holds a soft spot for Harry, contrasting with her apparent frustration towards Prince Charles’s handling of the situation.
As the documentary sheds light on Prince Philip’s legacy and the intimate dynamics within the royal family, it also inadvertently exposes the underlying tensions and divisions that continue to simmer beneath the surface.
The contrasting responses from different family members reflect the complexities of their relationships and the challenges they face in navigating public scrutiny and personal grievances.
Amidst the nostalgia and tributes, the unresolved issues between Prince Harry and the rest of the royal family cast a shadow over what should have been a poignant remembrance of a beloved patriarch.
