At Last, Prince Harry Speaks On Divorce With Meghan Markle—–Prince Harry has addressed the persistent online rumours that his marriage to Meghan Markle is on the rocks after six years.
The Duke of Sussex was one of the star guests at the annual DealBook Summit live where he slammed trolls, insisting he feels ‘sorry’ for them because they ‘hope’ they will split up.
He also criticized Britain’s legal system, Government, media, and being in the public eye, declaring the attention was ‘definitely not a good thing’.
Asked by the event’s founder, Andrew Ross Sorkin, about the public’s fixation on their relationship.
‘They’re fascinated Meghan is in California right now, and you’re here. There are articles left and right about: “Why are you making, doing independent events? Why aren’t you doing them together?”
The Duke of Sussex then dismissed claims that he and Meghan are struggling.
‘Apparently, we’ve bought or moved house 10, 12 times. We’ve apparently divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well. So it’s just like, “what?”,’ Harry said laughing.
‘It’s hard to keep up with, but that’s why you just sort of ignore it. The people I feel most sorry about are the trolls.
‘Their hopes are just built and built, and it’s like, “Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes”, and then it doesn’t happen. So I feel sorry for them. Genuinely, I do.’
Harry dismissed divorce rumours and spoke about negative attention on him in the press and on social media.
‘I’ve had a lived experience since I was a kid. I’ve seen stories written about myself that aren’t exactly based on reality. I’ve seen stories about members of my family, friends, strangers, all sorts of people’, he said.
‘And I think when you grow up within that environment, you do find yourself questioning the validity of the information but also what other people are thinking of that as well, and how dangerous it can be over the course of time’.
Harry then reiterated that he and his wife have no plans to return to the United Kingdom with Archie and Lilibet, again hinting at security concerns.
