“Someone like me, if you’re sitting back staying quiet, keeping low, the stories don’t stop,” he says. He has been “really criticized for telling my story,” he complains, adding: “everybody else is allowed to tell their version of my story, but God forbid I should be able to tell the other side of it. Just by telling my own story, it takes away a lot of power from other people.”

Oh, Harry. Here we go again with the victim narrative. 🙄
You complain that “everybody else is allowed to tell their version of my story.”
I’m sorry, H, but when exactly have Prince William, Princess Catherine, or King Charles publicly told YOUR story? Last I checked, they’ve remained remarkably silent while you and your wife have spent years airing your grievances for the entire world to hear.
And if you’re referring to the press, Harry, that’s literally their job! They report on the interviews, accusations, revelations and endless drama YOU and your wife willingly put into the public domain.
You wrote an entire memoir, sat for countless interviews and participated in a Netflix docuseries airing your family’s private affairs. Yet somehow, when the press reports on YOUR words, you’re the victim?
The problem isn’t that others are telling your story, Harry. It’s that you and your wife have skin as thin as cellophane and cannot tolerate anyone questioning your version of events.
You don’t want to control your story. You want to control the narrative, the criticism AND everyone else’s right to respond.
That’s not telling your truth. That’s demanding the last word. Spare me!
