THE Queen has dismissed Prince Harry's vow to "protect" his grandmother by quietly seeking to hire new security experts.
Royal author Richard Eden says the Royal Household is quietly seeking to recruit a new "physical and technical security adviser".
Writing in the Mail,
Author of The Palace Papers, Tina Brown, dropped a number of Royal bombshells on her podcast while talking about the Royal family.
Brown claims the Duke of Sussex ranted so much to his ex-girlfriend, Cressida Bonas, that she suggested he seek professional help with MI6.
She suggests his frustrations stemmed from William "hogging the best briefs".
She expanded: "When Harry wasn't obsessing over William, he was moaning about the Prince of Wales."
The author claimed a friend of the royals described Harry as "a very, very angry man."

"He's bringing a book out where he's slagging off Camilla and maybe William and his father.

One told American news site The Daily Beast: "For a company (whose) mission is to help empower people throughout the world… They're not walking the walk."
Another added: "There's so many of us now who are upset. I would say my heart is broken. And I think there's really questionable ethics going on.They've turned us into a commodity".

Andrew stripped of Freedom of York
The city of York yesterday stripped Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, of the freedom of the city.
Local councillors voted en masse to rescind the honour bestowed on Andrew, Queen Elizabeth's second son, in 1987.
Andrew, who has fallen from grace as a member of Britain's royal family, in February settled a U.S. lawsuit by Virginia Giuffre accusing him of sexually abusing her when she was a teenager, potentially sparing him further embarrassment.
"The honorary freedom of our great city is bestowed on those who represent the very best of York. It's inappropriate for Prince Andrew to retain any connection to our city," said Darryl Smalley, a York city councillor.
Andrew, 62, did not admit wrongdoing in agreeing to settle the civil lawsuit.
He has not been accused of criminal wrongdoing.

Explosive new book claims Meghan snared ‘mentally fragile’ Harry
Tina Brown, the well-connected former editor of Vanity Fair, Tatler and The New Yorker, spoke to 120 sources for her account of The Firm’s past 25 years.
From Megxit to Andrew’s scandals, here we look at the revelations from The Palace Papers: Inside The House Of Windsor – The Truth And The Turmoil.
WHEN Meghan Markle first met Prince Harry, she did not see him just as a potential lover but the “solution to every problem she had”.
At 37, she was a woman “famished for prestige, frantic for validation”. Despite seven years on US telly show Suits, no big-time talk shows were knocking and no other acting jobs were offered. But with Harry, her star could soar.
In her new book, Tina Brown writes: “The morning after their first date, she spoke about Harry to a girlfriend as if he were a hot submission from her agent. ‘Do I sound crazy when I say this could have legs?’”
It is one of many nuggets unearthed by Brown.

‘The Queen Mother made it quite clear which prince deserved more of her attention’
A royal author has claimed that Prince Harry felt “overshadowed” when the Queen Mother gave William more attention when they were growing up.
Royal biographer Robert Jobson said: “By the time he was just eight years old, Prince William was already used to being treated with deference by some of the royal staff.
“On top of that, the Queen Mother made it quite clear which of the two little princes deserved more of her attention.
“At family gatherings, their great-grandmother would often call for a chair to be placed next to hers, then ask for William to be seated next to her.
“She would also invite him to go to see her at Clarence House — without his younger brother.
“Not surprisingly, Prince Harry felt overshadowed — though he has never publicly expressed hurt or resentment at being the less favoured child.”

“You talk about it here in California, ‘I’ll get my therapist to call your therapist’.
“Whereas in the UK it’s like, ‘Therapist? What therapist? Whose therapist? I don’t have a therapist. No, I definitely don’t, I’ve never spoken to a therapist.’”
