Prince Henry opens up and explains why he broke up with his family

London. Prince Henry left his job in the royal family because of the British press, which he described as “toxic” and admitted in an interview with a US television program that media pressure “destroys” his mental health.

One week ago, Buckingham Palace announced that Queen Elizabeth II’s nephew and his wife, American actress Meghan Markle, were breaking up with the royal family, so they would no longer work as members of the royalty and therefore both they will lose their sponsorships, such as that of the Rugby Union and their honorary positions in the Armed Forces.

The Duke of Sussex pointed out that he had not “fled” from his homeland, but had taken a “step back” to avoid the “difficult environment” that surrounded him., but said that his life “is public service” and therefore he will always be a “contributor” from anywhere in the world.

“We all know what the British press is like and it was destroying my health, it was toxic. So I did what any husband and father would have done: I have to get my family out of here. “Enrique explained to the British James Corden in the program “The Late Late Show” while traveling on the streets of Los Angeles – where he lived since 2020 – in a tourist bus.

Before moving to California, the couple has already expressed dissatisfaction with the treatment that British tabloids have given to Markle, of African-American origin, several times. He even sued one of them for violating his private life by publishing excerpts from a letter he wrote to his father.

In the interview, she also revealed that she knew that Markle, with whom she is expecting her second child, was the one at the “second date” and that she had spent “an enormous amount of time” getting to know each other, although she acknowledged that the difficulties which presupposes her family position.

“Going out with me or any member of the Royal Family means going crazy. All programming turns into who, watching TV or talking at home “, He said.

His one-year-old son, Archie, said he was “hysterical”, that he “already puts three or four words together and sings songs” or that his first word was “crocodile”. In addition, Queen Elizabeth, with whom I speak on Zoom, gave her a “waffle maker” for Christmas, which I use for breakfast.

He also acknowledged that he prefers the description of the Netflix series “Crown” to his family, because “he doesn’t pretend it’s news” and would like to be played by redhead actor Damian Lewis.

“Of course it’s not entirely correct, but it gives you a rough idea of ​​that lifestyle and what can happen,” said Enrique, who said he was more “comfortable” watching the show than reading “the stories that are written.” about him, his wife or family.

He also regretted in his relaxed conversation with Corden that he had almost no opportunity to discover Los Angeles due to restrictions due to the pandemic.
