Prince Harry slammed for 'woeful lack of compassion' for his own family after 'cruel' parenting jibes about Charles

PRINCE Harry has been blasted for showing a “woeful lack of compassion” for his own family after taking a swipe at Charles' parenting skills. 

A senior royal aide said it was “cruel” for the Duke of Sussex to suggest he had been failed by his dad after he claimed he moved Archie and Meghan to USA to "break the cycle" of "genetic pain" from his own childhood.


The Duke made the comments during a podcast with American media personality Dax Shepard, in which he said his dad Charles “suffered” due to his upbringing by the Queen and Philip, then “treated me the way he was treated”.

A source told the Daily Telegraph that Harry had “thrown others under the bus” during the interview. 

Another source said: “For a couple that have been at pains to set out their compassionate principles, they seem woefully lacking when it comes to their own family. 

“It’s not just the Prince of Wales but the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh as well.

“It has been met with utter bemusement.”

Royal sources also claimed the family were left disappointed after Harry swore twice during the interview. 

Asked about his upbringing and its impact on his mental health, the Duke told the podcast: “There’s no blame, I don’t think we should be pointing the finger or blaming anybody.

“But certainly when it comes to parenting, if I have experienced some form of pain or suffering because of the pain or suffering perhaps my father or my parents suffered, I’m gonna make sure that I break that cycle so that I don’t pass it on, basically.

“There is a lot of genetic pain and suffering that gets passed on ­anyway. 

“As parents we should be doing the most that we can to say, ‘You know what, that happened to me, I’m gonna make sure that’s not going to happen to you’.”

Speaking about the parental differences between him and 72-year-old Charles, Harry said: “It’s really hard to do but for me it comes down to awareness.

“I never saw it, I never knew about it, then suddenly I started to piece it all together and go, ‘OK, so, this is where he went to school, this is what happened’.

"I know this bit about his life, I also know that’s connected to his parents, so that means that he is treating me the way that he was treated.

“Which means, ‘How can I change that for my own kids’? And well, here I am, I have now moved my whole family to the US.

“That wasn’t the plan, do you know what I mean? But sometimes you have got to make decisions and put your family first and your mental health first.”
