Prince Harry is pleading for reconciliation — but the royals are just as sick of his victimhood as everyone else

Prince Harry says he’s ready to make peace with the Royal Family — the same family he’s spent the past few years accusing, blaming, and publicly trashing. In a new BBC interview, Harry called for “reconciliation,” despite having just lost a legal appeal to restore his UK taxpayer-funded security.
The court acknowledged that Harry made “powerful” arguments, but concluded that his grievance didn’t amount to a legal case. Still, Harry insists it’s the palace — and his father — who hold the power to fix things.

He told the BBC, “There is a lot of control and ability in my father’s hands. Ultimately, this whole thing could be resolved through him.”

It’s not the first time Harry has blamed his family. In his Oprah interview, his Netflix docuseries, and his memoir “Spare,” he’s painted the royals as cold, racist, and even dangerous — suggesting someone wants him to suffer the same fate as his mother, Princess Diana.

Despite the damaging claims, Harry now says he loves his country and wants to reconcile. “I don’t know how much longer my father has,” he said, referencing King Charles III’s ongoing battle with cancer. “He won’t speak to me because of this security stuff, but it would be nice to reconcile.”

His remarks come just days after the royal family appeared together at a VE-Day tribute — with no sign of Harry.

Critics say Harry’s appeal for peace rings hollow after years of public attacks. His family, many believe, has grown tired of his endless victim narrative — and skeptical of his motives.

Royal sources have previously noted that Harry tends to go public at the worst possible moments: the Oprah interview while Prince Philip was dying, his Netflix series shortly after the Queen’s passing, and now this — as his father undergoes cancer treatment.

A Buckingham Palace spokesperson responded, stating: “All of these issues have been examined repeatedly and meticulously by the courts, with the same conclusion reached on each occasion.”

The bigger issue, insiders say, is trust. After airing so many personal grievances in front of the world, the Royal Family reportedly fears Harry’s return may be less about healing — and more about gathering fresh content for future media projects.

As one critic put it: Harry continues to see himself as the victim — blind to the
