Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s break from royal duties, the couple hasn’t been shy about sharing their side of the royal family fallout. With the Duke of Sussex’s upcoming book Spare expected to release in a matter of days, it’s no surprise that Prince Harry continues to speak publicly about his memoir as well as his relationship with his family. Recently, The Hollywood Reporter noted that on Monday morning, Prince Harry stopped by Good Morning America to talk about his new book. His appearance on the show follows his recent interviews with ITV and CBS’ 60 Minutes.

During the chat, co-host Michael Strahan focused on the Duke of Sussex’s strained relationship with his family and why the prince decided to write a book in the first place.

Prince Harry said, “I don’t think that we can ever have peace with my family unless the truth is out there. There’s a lot that I can forgive, but there needs to be conversations in order for reconciliation, and part of that has to be accountability.” He later added, “The only way that I can protect us and the only way that I can correct those mistruths is by writing something, the truth, in one place. And I fully accept that writing a book is feeding the beast anyway.”

The Duke of Sussex went on to explain the title of his new book, saying that it was a label that had been “used against him.” In regards to Prince Harry, the term spare is a reference to his royal status, as his brother Prince William is the heir to the throne. The Duke of Sussex then said that when it came to these labels, the British press fueled the idea of competition between the two brothers. He then used media stories such as the alleged feud between the brother’s wives and stories of Markle allegedly upsetting other royal family members as proof that the U.K. press tried to instigate tension between Prince William and himself.

When asked how he believed his late mother, Princess Diana, would feel about the current relationship between her sons, Prince Harry said that he believed she wouldn’t be happy. “I think she’d be sad,” he stated. “I think she would be heartbroken that it’s ended up where it’s ended up. I think she’d be heartbroken about the fact that William, his office were part of these stories.”

Strahan also asked Prince Harry if he’d ever consider returning to his former role as a working royal. The Duke of Sussex said, “I don’t think it’s ever going to be possible. I don’t think that, you know, even if there was an agreement or an arrangement between me and my family, there is a third party [the British press] that is going to do everything they can to make sure that isn’t possible. Not stopping us from going back, but making it unsurvivable.”

Still, the Duke of Sussex noted that he’d never be able to disconnect from his family entirely. He said, “There’s no version of me ever being able to get out of this.”
