Tom says: “Wouldn’t your brother say to you, ‘Harry, how could you do this to me? After everything? After everything we went through?’ Wouldn’t that be what he would say?”

Harry replies: “He’d probably say all sorts of different things.”

Tom continues: “Some people will say you have railed against invasions of your privacy all your life,” to which Harry nods.

Tom says: “But the accusation would be, here are you invading the privacy of your most nearest and dearest without permission. That would be the accusation.”

Harry says: “That would be the accusation… from the people that don’t understand, or don’t want to believe that my family have been briefing the press.”

When does Harry’s interview air on ITV?

The ITV interview will air this Sunday and is expected to be another explosive one.

Meanwhile, the clip of the interview comes shortly after details from Prince Harry’s upcoming memoir were leaked.

Harry’s book, Spare, will be released on January 10. However, the Guardian says it has obtained a copy of the book.
