♪ (APPLAUSE)
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)
HARRY, HARRY, HARRY, HARRY. ♪.
>> THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IN THE CROWD.
>> Stephen: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
AND YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED IT BUT BUT
HARRY SAID IS THIS THE CHAIR AND THE SPARE OVER THERE.
WELL DONE, WELL PLAYED, SIR. NOW IT IS LOVELY TO HAVE YOU ON
THE SHOW. THANK YOU FOR COMING ON AND
TALKING ABOUT YOUR NEW BOOK. WHAT SHOULD YOU CALL ME.
>> CALL ME ANYTHING YOU WANT AT THIS POINT.
I'M STUCK HERE TALKING. >> Stephen: IN THE BOOK I FIND
YOU HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT NAMES, YOUR BIRTHDAY SNAIM
HENRY, YOUR FATHER AND BROTHER KAWF ENCALL YOU HAROLD, FRIENDS
H, WHAT IS HAZ, SHORT FOR HAZARDOUS.
>> MY WIFE CALLS ME HAZ. >> Stephen: IS HARRY OKAY.
>> YEAH, HARRY, HAZ, BAZ, BAZZA SPIKE, BAZAROONEY STRKS ALL
THERE. >> Stephen: BAZAROONEY.
PRINCE BAZAROONEY. >> PRINCE DOESN'T COME BEFORE
THAT. >> Stephen: IT IS ITS OWN
TIGHT NELL AND OF ITSELF. WELL, YOU HAVE WRITTEN THIS VERY
INTIMATE MEMOIR WHICH I HAVE READ.
AND IT'S FASCINATING. ITS AES A VERY GOOD READ.
ITSELF. (APPLAUSE).
>> Stephen: THAT IS AVAILABLE TODAY.
A LOT OF SENSATIONAL LEAKS IN THE DAYS COMING UP WITH THIS.
I KNOW THAT YOU YOURSELF ARE A VERY PRIVATE PERSON FOR BEING A
PUBLIC FIGURE. YOU ARE REVEALING A LOT OF
THINGS IN HERE. YOU MUST BE ON A CERTAIN LEVEL
KIND OF NERVE-RACKING TO BE OUT THERE TO PUBLICLY, PHYSICALLY
REPRESENT THE BOOK. WOULD YOU LIKE A COCKTAIL BEFORE
WE BEGIN? (LAUGHTER)
>> YES, PLEASE. (APPLAUSE).
>> Stephen: I HEAR YOU LIKE TEQUILA.
>> DOES HE EVER MAKE YOU GUYS A DRINK OR NOT?
EVERYONE WANTS A DRINK, EVERYBODY WA.TS A DRINK.
(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE). >> Stephen: THEY'RE ALREADY ON
YOUR SIDE, MAN, YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET THEM DRUNK.
ALL RIGHT, ARE YOU GLAD NOW TO BE OUT HERE, PEOPLE CAN SEE THIS
BOOK, AFTER ALL THESE LEAKS, SO THEY CAN SEE THE CONTEXT OF
THESE REMARKS? >> YES, CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING,
AS WE KNOW. WRITING THIS BOOK HAS BEEN A
CATH ARTIC EXPERIENCE. HARD TIMES AND HAPPY TIMES.
BRINGING UP MEMORIES THAT I DIDN'T THINK I HAD.
BUT YES, CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING. AND UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO THOSE
LEAKS, THE BRITISH PRESS, WHICH ARE CENTRAL TO SO MUCH OF MY
STORY IN MY 38 YEARS UP TO THIS POINT, AND AFTER SPENDING TWO
YEARS FOCUSED ON CONTEXT AND WHAT I AM GOES TO SHARE, HOW I
AM GOING TO SHARE IT, AND BEING ABLE TO PIECE IT ALL TOGETHER,
THEY INTENTIONALLY CHOSE TO STRIP AWAY THE CONTEXT AND TAKE
OUT INDIVIDUAL SEGMENTS OF MY LIFE, MY STORY AND JUST TO MAKE
A HEADLINE, WHICH IS SOME WHAT TYPICAL.
>> Stephen: RIGHT, ESPECIALLY IF YOU READ THIS BOOK, YOU FIND
OUT HOW TYPICAL THAT IS. >> YES.
>> Stephen: THERE IS A LOT OF FAULTS IN THE AMERICAN PRESS.
AND PEOPLE CAN SEE THAT IN THE AMERICAN PRESS.
BUT THE BRITISH PRESS WHAT IS ODD TO ME, SORT OF BIZARRE HOW
VICIOUS THEY CAN BE. YOU DETAIL A LIFETIME OF
DISHONORABLE BEHAVIOR LIKE THE KIND YOU ARE DESCRIBING.
AND NOT ONLY FROM THE PRESS BUT FROM PALACE SOURCES, IN PALACE
INSIDERS WHO WOULD NOT ONLY NOT DEFEND YOU BUT ALSO PLANT
STORIES THAT WERE DEROGATORY TOWARD YOU.
AND PLACED YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES UNDER ATTACK.
AND JUDGING THE LAST FEW DAYS, THAT HASN'T CHANGED.
DO YOU THINK THAT RIGHT NOW THERE IS AN ACTIVE CAMPAIGN BY
THE FAMILY, BY THE ROYAL HOUSE, AS IT WERE, TO UNDERMINE THIS
BOOK AND YOU AS YOU SUPPORT IT. >> OF COURSE.
AND MAINLY BY THE BRITISH PRESS. BECAUSE THEY-- .
>> Stephen: BUT AIDED AND ABETTED BY THE PALACE.
>> AGAIN, OF COURSE. BUT THIS IS THE OTHER SIDE OF
THE STORY, RIGHT. AFTER 38 YEARS, THEY HAVE TOLD
THEIR SIDE OF THE STORY. THIS IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
STORY. AND THERE IS A LOT IN HERE THAT,
PERHAPS MAKES PEOPLE FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE AND SCARED.
I WOULD SAY THAT I THINK THERE ARE SOME VETERANS IN THE HOUSE
TONIGHT. (CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)
I THINK ONE OF THE MOST-- I'M NOT GOING TO LIE.
THE LAST FEW DAYS HAVE BEEN HURTFUL AND CHALLENGING AND NOT
BEING ABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THOSE THINGS YOU REFER TO.
PERHAPS, WELL, NOT PLAPS, WITHOUT A DOUBT, THE MOST
DANGEROUS THING THEY TOLD IS THAT I BOASTED ABOUT THE NUMBER
OF PEOPLE I KILLED IN AFGHANISTAN.
>> Stephen: I READ THAT SECTION OF THE BOOK, WITHOUT
READING THE ENTIRE THING RIGHT HERE, IT IS, TO ME IT IS A VERY
THOUGHTFUL DESCRIPTION OF WHAT THAT KNOWLEDGE IS LIKE TO HAVE.
AND WHAT THE EXPERIENCE IS TO KNOW THAT YOU HAD DONE THIS IN
ORDER TO PROTECT WHAT YOU BELIEVE IS GOOD IN THE WORLD
FROM THOSE WHO WOULD WISH TO DESTROY IT.
THERE IS NOTHING BOASTFUL ABOUT IT.
AND NOT ONLY THAT. >> BUT ALSO, I WOULD SAY THAT IF
I HURT NIBBLES, IF I HURT ANYONE BOASTING ABOUT THAT KIND OF
THING, I WOULD BE ANGRY. BUT IT IS A LIE.
AND HOPEFULLY NOW THAT THE BOOK IS OUT PEOPLE WILL BE ABLE TO
SEE THE CONTEXT. AND IT IS, IT IS REALLY
TROUBLING AND VERY DISTURBING THAT THEY CAN GET AWAY IT WITH
IT, BECAUSE THEY HAD THE CONTEXT IT WASN'T LIKE HERE IS JUST ONE
LINE. THEY HAD THE WHOLE SECTION.
THEY RIPPED IT AWAY AND SAID HERE IT.
IS HE IS BOASTING ON. THIS WHEN AS YOU SAY, YOU READ
IT. AND EVERYBODY ELSE WILL
HOPEFULLY HAVE A CHANCE TO READ IT.
AND THAT IS DANGEROUS. AND MY WORDS ARE NOT DANGEROUS.
BUT THE SPIN OF MY WORDS, ARE VERY DANGEROUS.
>> Stephen: DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU AN INCREASED
TARGET, AND THOSE AROUND YOU THAT YOU LOVE.
>> AND THAT IS A CHOICE THEY MADE.
>> Stephen: ANOTHER ODD THING ABOUT IT IS THAT THIS IS NOTHING
NEW. HERE IS AN ARTICLE FROM I
BELIEVE THIS IS FROM REUTERS FROM TEN YEARS AGO DESCRIBING
THAT YOU HAD KILLED AFGHAN, THE TALIBAN IN SORTEES, SO THIS
ISN'T NEW INFORMATION. THIS HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR A LONG
TIME. >> ALMOST TEN YEARS TO THE DAY.
MY FACE WAS SPLAT ERRED ALL OVER THE PAGES BECAUSE SOMEONE ASKED
THE QUESTION WHEN I WAS STILL IN AFGHANISTAN IF I HAD KILLED
ANYBODY FROM AN ATTACK. AND I SAID YES.
AND I THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT THING HERE IS NOT ONLY THE
CONTEXT BUT THE REASON AS TO WHY I DECIDED TO SHAIR THIS IN MY
BOOK. BECAUSE AGAIN, TO THE VETS HERE
AND TO THE CIVILIANS HERE, WHICH MAY SEEM, MAY FEEL AS THOUGH IT
IS SLIGHTLY A WEIRD CONVERSATION TO HAVE, ESPECIALLY ON THIS SHOW
OR SHOWS, BUT I MAID A CHOICE BECAUSE HAVING SPENT NEARLY TWO
DECADES WORKING WITH VETERANS ALL AROUND THE WORLD, I THINK
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO BE HONEST AND TO BE ABLE TO GIVE
SPACE TO OTHERS TO BE ABLE TO SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES WITHOUT
ANY SHAME. AND MY WHOLE GOAL AND MY ATTEMPT
WITH SHARING THAT DETAIL IS TO REDUCE THE NUMBER F SUICIDES.
(APPLAUSE). >> Stephen: YOU TALK IN THE
BOOK, HERE WE GO. THERE YOU GO.
(APPLAUSE) YOU TALK IN THE BOOK ABOUT THOSE
YEARS IN THE MILITARY AS HAVING SAVED YOU.
YOU SAY YOU CONTINUE TO WORK WITH VETERANS, WOUNDED VETERANS.
AND DO YOU THINK THE U.K. PRESS IS USING THIS SPECIFICALLY TO
HURT YOU IN AN AREA THAT IS MEANINGFUL TO YOU?
>> WITHOUT QUESTION. IT IS NOT JUST AN AREA THAT THEY
KNOW IS THE MOST MEANINGFUL, BUT IT IS DEFINED MY LIFE.
I SPENT TEN YEARS IN THE ARMY. I ONLY JOINED ORIGINALLY FOR
THREE. COULDN'T RESIST STAYING.
THEY KEPT DANGLING THE CARROT WITH DIFFERENT JOBS FOR ME FOR
MANY YEARS. BUT I FOUND A REFUGE THERE.
AND AS I TALK ABOUT IN THE BOOK, I FOUND MY PURPOSE.
A PURPOSE GREATER THAN MYSELF AND TO BE AMONGST COMRADS, NO
LONGER BEING TREATED DIFFERENTLY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE,
HAVING TO HIDEAWAY FROM THE MEDIA FOCUS.
FOR ME, THAT WAS AMAZING PLACE TO BE AND AN AMAZING COMMUNITY.
I STILL AM PART OF THAT COMMUNITY.
SO THEY WILL DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO TRY AND DISRUPT THAT.
SO THEY WILL DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO TRY AND DISRUPT THAT.
>> Stephen: I KNOW THIS MIGHT BE A SIMPLE QUESTION OR THERE
MIGHT BE A SIMPLE ANSWER HERE, WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE SO
FASCINATED WITH YOUR FAMILY, AND THIS MOMENT, IN YOU.
ASIDE FROM THIS BOOK, BECAUSE THERE WAS ALSO A PRESS
FASCINATION OR PUBLIC FASCINATION WHEN YOU AND YOUR
WIFE WERE BEING PRIVATE, ALL DURING COVID OUT IN CALIFORNIA.
WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE AN APPETITE? >> WELL, FIRST OF ALL, ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT MY FAMILY. >> Stephen: YOUR FAMILY, WELL,
HOW ABOUT YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR GREATER FAMILY.
>> THE GREATER FAMILY, I DON'T-- I GREW UP WITHIN IT I
THINK THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A FASCINATION.
I THINK MY MUM TOOK IT, FASCINATION WITH HER TOOK IT TO
A NEW LEVEL, DIANA'S BOYS, IS HOW THIS TURNS OUT.
I THINK THERE WAS A REAL SENSE OF SOME PARTS ONLY A BIT, SOME
PARTS, PARENTHOOD BY THE BRITISH PUBLIC, THAT THEY HAD TO PARENT
MY BROTHER THROUGH OUR TEENAGE YEARS, AND WHEN HE GOT MARRIED,
OKAY, GREAT, THERE IS ONE. WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE
OTHER ONE. AND THEN I'M FALLING OUT OF
CLUBS AND DRIPGING HEAVILY AND ALL OF THAT, AGAIN T IS ALL
THERE. AND THAT WAS A PART.
BUT WITH REGARD TO MY FAMILY, YOU HIT ON A REALLY IMPORTANT
PART IS WE WERE FORCED TO LEAVE. WE LEFT IN 2020.
WE MOVED OUT, WE FLED THE HOME COUNTRY, MOVED TO CALIFORNIA AND
FOR 12 MONTHS DURING LOCKDOWN WHERE WE SAID LITERALLY NOTHING,
IT WAS RELENTLESS. AND THAT WAS, THAT WAS A REAL
EYE OPENER FOR ME. I NEVER THOUGHT THAT THEY WOULD
BE AWAY FROM IT COMPLETELY. BUT I DID THINK THAT WE WOULD
GET SOME FORM OF PEACE. THAT IS WHEN I REALIZED THAT
ACTUALLY OUR MERE EXISTENCE OUTSIDE OF THAT INSTITUTIONAL
CONTROL WAS MORE OF A THREAT. AND A SIMILAR THING THAT
HAPPENED TO MY MUM AS WELL. AND LOOK, THEY ALWAYS KNEW THAT
MY WIFE WAS GOING TO LEAVE BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY WERE
REFUSING HER. BUT THE MOST EMBARRASSING THING
WAS I DECIDED TO GO WITH HER. >> Stephen: DO YOU THINK THE
INTENT WAS TO MAKE HER TO LEAVE OR TO BREAK HER SPIRIT SO SHE
WOULD BE EASIER TO CONTROL? CUZ EITHER ONE WOULD DO.
>> A LITTLE BIT OF THERAPY. YOU DIDN'T KNOW, DID YOU.
I HAVE DINNER RESERVATION WHAT IS THAT.
>> Stephen: LET'S FOLLOW THAT. (LAUGHTER)
>> I THINK BOTH. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THE LEVEL OF
ABUSE AND HARASSMENT THAT I WITNESSED WITH MY WIFE, OTHER
THAN AS A FAMILY, THEY EXPERIENCED DIFFERENT THINGS OF
THAT. BUT TO SEE IT HAPPEN THE WAY IT
HAPPENED. I WAS NAIVE GOES INTO IT AND
REALIZED THE BRITISH PRESS WAS SO BIGOTED AND EVEN IF I HAD I
WOULDN'T HAVE SEND OR UNDERSTOOD THAT THEY COULD GET AWAY WITH
IT. BUT HERE WE ARE, WE HAVE CREATED
A FANTASTIC LIFE HERE IN CALIFORNIA WHICH BY THE WAY IS
BEAUTIFUL, AND AMERICA SAY GREAT PLACE TO LIVE.
HOW OLD WERE YOU WHEN THAT NAME, THAT DESCRIPTION MADE SENSE TO
YOU IN TERMS OF THE HIERARCHY OF THE FAMILY.
>> WHEN IT MADE SENSE. >> Stephen: WHEN YOU REALIZED
THAT SPARE MEANT YOU ARE EVEN COME EDICALLY AS HE IS THE
SAFETY CUSHION? (LAUGHTER)
>> I HEARD SOMEONE GO A-W-W. >> Stephen: YOU SHOULD READ
THE BOOK. (LAUGHTER)
>> WHO EVER THAT WAS THANK YOU, I WILL GIVE YOU A HUG LATER.
DID YOU HEAR THAT. YEAH, I THINK FOR A PAWRLY
AMERICAN AUDIENCE I I ASSUME THE HEIR SPARE IS SOMETHING NEW, BUT
IT IS LITERALLY, THAT YOU HAVE THE HEIR, AND YOU HAVE THE
SPARE, THE DISTRACTION. AND IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL YOU
CAN PLAY INTO THAT LIKE SOME MEMBERS OF MY FAMILY V AND I
FELL FOR THAT TRAP IN MY TEENAGE YEARS.
FIGURING OUT MY PURPOSE. >> Stephen: THE THING THAT
FIGURING OUT MY PURPOSE. >> Stephen: THE THING THAT
SEEMS-- WHEN YOU READ THE BOOK AND HEAR THE INTERVIEWS, I GET
THE SENSE THAT YOU ARE BEING HONEST WHEN YOU SPEAK.
FACTUALLY HONEST, AS YOU SAY, THESE ARE YOUR STORIES, BUT ALSO
EMOTIONALLY HONEST. AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WAS
EMOTIONALLY VERY EFFECTIVE TO ME, AS SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T
REALLY FOLLOW THE ROYAL FAMILY AS MUCH, I A UP SOOD AFTER THE
DEATH OF YOUR MOTHER THAT YOU AND YOUR BROTHER FROM LOCK STEP,
WERE YOU THESE SOLACES FOR EACH OTHER THAT WENT THROUGH THE
EXPERIENCE TOGETHER AND REALLY THE REST OF YOUR LIVERS SHOULDER
TO SHOULDER AS THE ONLY TWO THAT COULD POSSIBLY UNDERSTAND WHAT
YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH. BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE HERE.
ARE YOU SURPRISED, PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED?
BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE SURPRISEED. >> ARE YOU SURPRISED?
>> YES. >> BECAUSE THAT HAS BEEN THE
NARRATIVE. I MEAN LOOK, THERE ARE TWO PARTS
TO. THIS ONE IS I THINK ANYONE WHO
SUFFERS FROM TRAUMA, SHOCK, GRIEF, LOSS WHICH WE ALL HAVE,
AND ALL WILL, THAT, YOU HAVE TO PUT ON A BRAVE FACE.
AND I THINK TO A LARGE EXTENT, YOU KNOW, ME OUT THERE SMILING,
MY BLOWER OUT THERE SMILING, US WORKING ENGAGEMENTS TOGETHER, IT
LOOKS A CERTAIN WAY. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE BRITISH
PRESS, THE ROYAL ROUTER, ALL OF THE ROYAL FAMILY INFORMATION
GOES THROUGH-- . >> Stephen: LIKE A PRESS POOL.
>> YEAH, A PRESS POOL. >> Stephen: DO YOU HAVE TO SAY
IT THAT WAY? LEGALLY, IS IT DO YOU HAVE TO
SAY IT THAT WAY. >> I SIGNED A DISCLAIMER.
>> Stephen: EXACTLY. >> BUT FOR, YEAH, SO I CAN
UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE WOULD THINK THAT BUT I GUESS MORE
RECENTLY, ESPECIALLY IN THE LAST SIX YEARS IT IS ALL THE FRACTURE
OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ME AND MY BROTHER, HAS VERY MUCH
AFFECTED MY WIFE. >> Stephen: THERE IS A LOT OF
TALK ABOUT THE PHYSICAL FIGHT THAT THE TWO OF YOU HAD, WHERE
HE PUSHED YOU DOWN IN THE KITCHEN AND BROKE THE DOUG BOWL,
WHEN YOU FELL ON IT. IT SAYS IT BROKE YOUR NECKLACE.
WHAT NECKLACE WAS IT THAT HE BROKE.
>> THIS ONE. I GOT-- MY KIDS HOBBIES, MY WIFE
GAVE ME. >> Stephen: OH S THE CARDIO
GRAM ENGRAIFERRED. >> AND MADE THIS ONE.
>> Stephen: IF YOUR MOTH PRER STILL ALIVE, DO YOU EVER THINK
OF HOW SHE WOULD HANDLE THIS MOMENT.
>> WE WOULDN'T HAVE GOT TO THIS POINT.
>> Stephen: TALK TO ME ABOUT THAT.
>> WE WOULDN'T. I DON'T KNOW WHERE I DON'T
KNOW-- . >> Stephen: THERE WAS ALREADY
CRISIS IN YOUR FAMILY, ALREADY DIVISIONS, SHE WAS ALREADY BEING
HOUNDED. SO.
>> IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY WHERE WE WOULD BE NOW, WHERE THE
RELATIONSHIP WOULD BE NOW. BUT THERE IS NO WAY THAT THE
DISTANCE BETWEEN MY BROTHER AND I WOULD BE THE SAME.
>> Stephen: DO YOU THINK OF HOW, DO YOU SORT OF MENIALLY OR
SPIRITUALLY ASK FOR HELP AS TO WHAT CAN I DO TO FIX THERE?
ANY ADVICE SHE MIGHT GIVE YOU? >> I HAVE-- I WOULD SAY QUITE A
LOT RECENTLY, IN THESE INTERVIEWS I HAVE BEEN DOING,
THAT I REALLY FELT THE PRESENCE OF MY MUM, ESPECIALLY THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS. I DETAIL IN THE BOOK MY BROTHER
AND I TALKING AT HER GRAVE AND HOW HE FELT AS THOUGH SHE HAD
BEEN WITH HIM FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.
AND HELP SET HIM UP WITH LIFE. AND THAT HE FELT SHE WAS NOW
MOVING TO ME. AND I HAD FELT THE LOSS MORE IN
THE LAST 2 YEARS THAN IN THE LAST 30.
>> Stephen: THE LAST TWO YEARS IS INTERESTING, YOU WERE 38, AND
SHE WAS 36 WHEN SHE DIED WHAT IS IT LIKE, WHEN SOMEONE LOSES A
PARCHGHTS WHEN YOU ARE OLDER THAN THEY R WHEN YOU HAVE SEEN
MORE OF LIFE THAN THEY HAVE, SUCH AS IT S WHAT WAS THAT
MOMENT LIKE FOR YOU, OR WAS IT SIGNIFICANT AT ALL.
>> SHE DIED AT 36. AND I WAS 36 WHEN THIS ALL
KICKED OFF. AS IN JANUARY OF 2020 WAS WHEN
MY WIFE AND I BASICALLY SAID ENOUGH.
WE CAN'T COPE. WE CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS.
WE CARVED OUT SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
SO THAT WAS AN INTERESTING LAP OF TIME.
SO THAT WAS AN INTERESTING LAP OF TIME.
>> Stephen: YOU ENGAGE IN SOMETHING THAT I THINK WE'VE
DISCUSSED THIS BRIEFLY, I LOST SEVERAL MEMBERS OF MY FAMILY
WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BIT YOUNGER THAN YOU.
AND I ENGAGED IN A LOT OF THINK BEING IT, WHERE THEY WERE, AND
PERHAPS THEY WEREN'T DEAD, AND YOU TALK ABOUT THIS ALL THROUGH
THIS BOOK. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WASES SO
RES NANLT TO YOU, WAS THE BRIEF THAT NO, MY MOTHER IS ALIVE.
SHE'S OUT THERE SOME PLACE. AND SOME DAY SHE WILL SHOIP.
THAT IS A RECURRING THEME THROUGHOUT THIS.
DID YOU HAVE AN IMAGE IN YOUR MIND OF WHERE SHE WAS AND WHAT
SHE WAS DOING ALL THIS TIME FOR THOSE YEARS.
>> FOR MANY YEARS I HAD DREAMS I WAS CONVINCED THAT SHE WAS STILL
ALIVE. AT 12 YEARS OLD.
>> Stephen: DID YOU THINK YOU SAW HER PLACES?
>> ONLY A HANDFUL OF TIMES. BUT I HAD TO BELIEVE THAT SHE
WAS STILL A LIVMENT I COULD NOT FACE THE REALITY THAT SHE WAS
GONE. >> Stephen: WHERE DID YOU
IMAGINE SHE WAS. >> HIDING.
TAKING A BREAK, PLOTTING, PLANNING, AND THEN COMING TO GET
WILLIAM AND I TO GET US OUT OF THERE.
BECAUSE IT WAS UNBEARABLE FOR HER.
>> Stephen: HIDING, HIDING, I'M NOT GOING TO-- MOVING
YOURSELF, THIS FANTASY OF WHAT YOUR MOTHER DID, IS WHAT
YOU-- YOU REMOVED YOURSELF FROM THE TOXIC SITUATION.
>> YEAH, AND I'M GLARKSD BY THE WAY--
(APPLAUSE) >> BEFORE TRYING TO MAKE IT
WORK. >> Stephen: YES.
>> WE TRIED. AND I'M GLAD THAT THAT RESONATED
FOR YOU. BECAUSE AS WE KNOW, THROUGH OUR
MENTAL HEALTH JOURNEY, THERE IS POWER IN SHARING.
BECAUSE YOU REALIZE ARE YOU NOT ALONE.
YOU REALIZE YOU WEREN'T CRAZY THINKING THAT.
>> Stephen: THAT IS HOW THAT PERSON IS STILL ALIVE, IF YOU
SHARE YOUR MEMORIES, THAT IS HOW THAT PERSON REALLY, THAT IS NOT
A IMAGINABLE THING, THAT PERSON IS ALIVE.
>> BUT SURE THERE IS THAT GRIEF THAT SO MEAFN US, LIKE WITHIN
SOCIETY AT LARGE, WE ARE NOT EXACTLY ENCOURAGED TO GRIEVE.
AND I THINK THAT'S A REAL PROBLEM.
>> Stephen: IT SEEMS A WEAKNESS.
>> IT SEEMS WEAKNESS. BUT I THROUGH THIS BOOK HAVE
BEEN THE MOST VULNERABLE I HAVE EVER BEEN IN MY LIFE.
AND HAVE I NEVER FELT STRONGER.
AND HAVE I NEVER FELT STRONGER.
YOU WRITE A LOT ABOUT YOUR
BROTHER. YOU WRITE ABOUT HIM WITH LOVE.
YOU CALL HIM WILLY. BUT THERE IS A DIFFERENT WILLY
THAT ALSO GAVE YOU SOME PAIN AND TROUBLE.
YOU GOT FROST BITE, FROSTNIP. >> FROST NIP.
>> Stephen: ON A DELICATE PART OF YOUR ANATOMY.
YOU WRITE ABOUT THIS IN THE BOOK.
>> NOW THEY'RE INTERESTED. >> Stephen: OKAY.
CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW IT IS THAT THE ROYAL STANDARDS GOT FROST
NIPPED. WALK US THROUGH T TAKE ALL THE
TIME IN THE WORLD. >> HOW LONG-- CAN HAVE I A
DRINK. >> Stephen: THERE YOU GO.
>> HOW LONG YOU HAVE WAITED TO ASK THAT QUESTION.
>> Stephen: SINCE I READ THE BOOK YESTERDAY.
>> WE'VE TAKEN QUITE A LEAP FROM GRIEF AND TRAUMA TO MY CODGER.
>> Stephen: THAT SAY GENTS EL WORD, SOUNDS LIKE A NICE
NICKNAME, YOU KNOW MY FRIEND, HIS WILLIE, HIS JOHN THOMAS.
>> HANG ON, BUT IN-- . >> Stephen: CARE FOR A GAME OF
TALLY WACKER. SO HOW DID.
>> >> Stephen: I KNOW HOW IT MADE
IT INTO THE BOOK. YOU HYPED IT.
BUT HOW DID-- HOW DID IT GET FROST NIPPED?
WHY DID YOU NOT TAKE CARE OF THE ROYAL JEWELS.
>> IT IS REALLY HARD TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION BECAUSE THERE
IS NO ONE IN THIS AUDIENCE THAT HAS PROBABLY READ THE BOOK YET
APART FROM YOU AND ME. SO WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT CONTEXT.
>> Stephen: THE CONTEXT IS THAT ARE YOU GOING TO THE NORTH
POLE. >> THANK YOU.
>> Stephen: AND THINGS GOT VERY COLD.
AT WHAT POINT DID YOU REALIZE THERE WAS A CRISIS AT THE SOUTH
POLE. (LAUGHTER)
(APPLAUSE) >> ONCE I GOT HOME.
>> Stephen: REALLY? >> YES.
>> Stephen: ALL THE WAY HOME T TOOK THAT LONG TO THA-W OUT?
>> BECAUSE, HEY, THE PROBLEM WAS FIRST OF ALL IT DIDN'T TURN INTO
AN ICICLE. IT WASN'T LIKE THAT.
>> Stephen: NEVER? >> WELL-- .
>> Stephen: OKAY, SO IT SEEMS OKAY.
>> IT'S FINE NOW. THANK YOU.
BUT THE CONTEXT WAS THAT THESE AMAZING VETERANS WERE DOING A
WALK TO THE NORTH POLE. THEY HAD ALL THE TRAINING.
I HAD NONE. AND I TURNED UP THINKING HOW BAD
CAN THIS BE. >> Stephen: IT IS ONLY THE
NORTH POLE. >> ST THE NORTH POLE, IT IS ONLY
MINE US 35 DEGREES, HAVE I THIS, THE JACKET, THE WARM STUFF IT I
GOT ALL THE THINGS THAT I NEED. WHAT I DIDN'T HAVE WAS WHAT I
HAD WHEN I ACTUALLY WENT TO THE SOUTH POLE WHICH WAS A [BLEEP],
WHICH IF YOU-- (LAUGHTER).
>> Stephen: NO ONE IN MY LIFE WHEN I WAS A CHILD COULD EVER
EXPLAIN TO ME THAT SOME DAY THE DUKE OF SUSSEX WAS GOING TO SAY
THE WORD [BLEEP] CUSHION TO ME AND IT WOULD ALL MAKE SENSE.
THE WORD [BLEEP] CUSHION TO ME AND IT WOULD ALL MAKE SENSE.
I WANT TO SHOW THIS LOVELY PHOTO
RIGHT HERE. THERE'S SO MUCH IN THIS BOOK
THAT IS ACTUALLY VERY HEARTWARMING.
THE HUMAN CONNECTION YOU HAVE WITH YOUR FAMILY, THE TIMES WHEN
THEY HAVE BEEN THERE TO SUPPORT YOU.
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL PHOTO OF YOURSELF AND QUEEN ELIZABETH II
AND THE WORLD MOURNED HER PASSING LAST SEPTEMBER.
YOU DIDN'T JUST LOSE A SOVEREIGN, YOU LOST YOUR
GRANDMOTHER. AND THERE ARE MANY REALLY LOVELY
INTERACTIONS BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR GRANDMOTHER.
WHAT WILL YOU REMEMBER MOST ABOUT HER?
>> HER SHARP WIT. HER SENSE OF HUMOR, HER ABILITY
TO RESPOND TO ANYBODY WITH A COMPLETELY STRAIGHT FACE BUT
TOTALLY JOKING. (LAUGHTER).
>> Stephen: WOW. THE ULTIMATED BRITISH DRY WIT.
>> YEAH. SHE WAS JUST-- SHE WAS, SHE WAS
INCREDIBLY HUMOUROUS, BUT AGAIN AS I SAID IN THE BOOK, I AM NOW
AND I WAS THEN GENUINELY HAPPY FOR HER.
BECAUSE SHE FINISHED LIFE. SHE HAD APP AMAZING LIFE, AN
AMAZING CAREER. AND SHE WAS BURIED WITH HER
HUSBAND. AND BEARING IN MIND THE GLOBAL SUFFERING THAT
EVERYONE HAS EXPERIENCED OVER THE LAST THREE YEARS, THERE WAS
LESS SUFFERING FOR BOTH OF MY GRANDPARENTS AND I'M REALLY,
REALLY GRATEFUL FOR THAT. >> Stephen: HERE IS ANOTHER
LOVELY FAMILY PHOTO. YOUR DAUGHTER LILLIBET, YOUR SON
ARCHIE. YOUR DAUGHTER IS NAMED IN HER
HONOR. HAVING CHIRP HELPS US REMEMBER
THOSE THAT WE HAVE LOST. DO YOU SEE YOUR MOTHER OR
GRANDPARENTS IN THESE PHOTOS. >> DEFINITELY MY MUM.
THEIR SENSE OF DUTY IS VERY, VERY STROPG.
I THOUGHT IN MY RELATIONSHIP YET, THERE IS NO WAY THEY WILL
STAND UP TO MY WIFE BUT I WAS WRONG.
>> Stephen: WHAT DO YOU DO AT HOME, DO YOU GUYS BINGE SHOWS?
>> BINGE? >> Stephen: YES, THE BINGE TV
SHOWS. >> YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
>> Stephen: YOU WATCHED THE CROWN, RIGHT, YOU HAD TO HAVE
WATCHED SOME OF THE CROWN, RIGHT.
>> PEOPLE LOVE IT. YES, HAVE I ACTUALLY WATCHED THE
CROWN. >> Stephen: THE RECENT STUFF
OR THE OLDER STUFF. >> THE OLDER STUFF AND MORE
RECENT STUFF. >> Stephen: DO YOU FACT CHECK
IT WHILE YOUWATCH IT? >> YES, I DO, ACTUALLY.
WHICH BY THE WAY, BY THE WAY, ANOTHER REASON WHY IT IS SO
IMPORTANT THAT HISTORY HAS IT RIGHT.
>> Stephen: HARRY, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
REALLY ENJOYED THIS. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS.
SPARE IS AVAILABLE TODAY. IT'S PRINCE HARRY, EVERYBODY.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK. (APPLAUSE)
