In an explosive revelation, Prince Harry testified in London’s High Court, laying bare a long-held belief that Prince Charles might not be his biological father and accusing British journalists of a concerted attempt to ruin his reputation, all without offering concrete evidence. The 38-year-old prince's revelations left onlookers and royal insiders alike startled.
During his testimony, Harry shocked many by asserting that he grew up suspecting his biological father to be military officer James Hewitt, his late mother Princess Diana's lover. He attributed these beliefs to prevalent rumors and considered them part of a conspiracy by the palace to remove him from the royal lineage.
An insider told The National Enquirer, “Harry admits being paranoid, but he seemed delusional at times!" They added, “He seems to blame anyone but himself for the negatives in his life and refuses to take responsibility for any of his actions.”
Mental health expert Dr. Gilda Carle suggested that Harry's belief in these rumors stemmed from Charles's perceived distance during his upbringing. In her comments to The Enquirer, she referred to the title of Harry's memoir, "Spare," which signifies his feelings of being the "spare" heir after his brother, William. Dr. Carle also postulated that his detachment from the royals was facilitated by his wife, Meghan Markle.
However, Dr. Carle warned that Harry’s ongoing victim narrative could adversely impact his children, Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 2. She emphasized the necessity for him to overcome his issues and serve as a positive role model for his offspring.
In the aftermath of his testimonies, there has been renewed concern about Harry's mental health. In court, he admitted to bouts of depression and paranoia, triggered by distrust, an outcome of the relentless media scrutiny he claims to have faced.
Despite blaming the media for various troubles in his life, including revealing his drug use and hounding him persistently, the prince faced difficulty substantiating his claims, leading to occasional clashes with the journalists' attorney.
Harry's detractors within royal circles have accused him of arrogance and poor preparation. “He says the journalists’ publications used illegal means to compile their stories but never says the information is false,” a royal insider remarked.
Harry's paranoia, as highlighted during his court appearance, has sparked speculation about his strained relationship with the monarchy, his marriage to Meghan Markle, and his relocation to California.
The same insider concluded, “Harry needs help. He needs to get out of the public eye and heal. Filing lawsuits against perceived enemies has never been the royal way. It will only end in disaster!”
