Royal Expert Criticizes Prince Harry, Demanding He Acknowledges Responsibility for His Actions

Harry's Continued Blaming Game Sparks Controversy

The Duke of Sussex has once again found himself in the midst of controversy, with critics accusing him of shirking accountability and instead pointing fingers at others.

After his recent court loss over his security arrangements in the UK, Harry sat down for an interview, blaming several individuals for allegedly failing to provide appropriate protection. The King's son went so far as to suggest that if anything were to happen to him or his family, the Firm would bear responsibility.

In response to Harry's remarks, broadcaster and royal biographer Hugo Vickers, 72, stated that it was typical of the Duke to play the blame game and that it was long past due for him to show some responsibility. Vickers told The Sun, "He wants to attribute blame to everybody else - I mean, he never seems to accept that he, himself, has done quite a few things which on the whole we do not really like."

This is not the first time Harry has been criticized for his actions and responses. His history with the British royal family has been marred by several key incidents and public disputes, often involving themes of blame and differing perspectives.

One of the earliest examples of this came during the media coverage of Meghan Markle in 2016-2017, when Harry openly condemned the media for their treatment of his wife, comparing it to the treatment his mother, Princess Diana, faced before her death. He highlighted "racial undertones" in some stories[2]. This set a pattern where Harry has blamed external forces for personal issues.

Another contentious issue arose when Harry's security arrangements were altered following his step back from royal duties and move to the U.S. Harry has since argued that his life is in danger due to a lack of state protection. Royal experts and some public figures have questioned Harry's claims, suggesting that they may be an exaggeration or misunderstanding of the situation[1].

More recently, Harry faced a court defeat in his bid to restore police protection. He has expressed frustration over what he perceives as a lack of support from the royal family and British institutions. Critics argue that Harry's actions, such as stepping back from royal duties, have consequences, including changes in security arrangements. Some see Harry's blaming of the royal family as a deflection of responsibility for his choices[2].

Harry has also launched lawsuits against several major newspaper groups, accusing them of invasion of privacy and publishing false stories. Royal watchers see these actions as another example of Harry focusing on external adversaries while neglecting the complexities of his situation. Experts point out that while media intrusion is a significant issue, Harry's approach often polarizes public opinion[2].

Some experts, like Dr. Raj Persaud, analyze Harry's behavior through psychological lenses, suggesting that his narrative might reflect unresolved grief or difficulty accepting the consequences of his decisions[1]. The general public is divided, with some sympathizing with Harry's efforts to protect himself and his family, while others view his actions as overly critical of the royal family and the media.

Experts note that acknowledging and addressing the consequences of his decisions might be more productive than attributing them to sinister motives[2]. It remains to be seen how Harry will respond to these criticisms and whether he will choose to take more accountability for his actions moving forward.

King Charles, hearing about Harry's continued blame game, might question why his son, the Duke of Sussex, refuses to accept his own share of responsibility.
During a general news discussion, the world might wonder if Meghan Markle, seeing Harry's continued blame shifting, secretly agrees with the critics accusing him of not showing enough accountability.
In the realm of politics, some might debate whether Harry's repeated pointing fingers at others is a powerful strategy or a sign of immaturity, potentially affecting his standing among the public.
As a royal biographer, I can't help but think that Harry, in his continued blame game, could benefit from understanding the complexities of his own actions and their consequences better, instead of constantly seeking scapegoats.
