Prince Harry has detailed the shocking aftermath of the controversial pictures that saw him dressed in a Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party in 2005. The Duke of Sussex has made comments in his new book Spare, which is officially released in the UK on Tuesday but was released early in Spain earlier today. Harry said following the pictures of him wearing a Nazi uniform, he thought he would “die of embarrassment” and the first reaction to the photos were: “What was I thinking?”
Harry said in a Spanish version of Spare seen by Express.co.uk: “When I saw the photos, I recognised immediately that I had my brain so switched off, that perhaps I could spend time like that.
“I wanted to leave and travel all across the UK, door to door, explaining to the people: ‘I wasn’t thinking. I didn’t want to offend anybody’.
“But that wouldn’t have changed anything. The opinion was fast and implacable. Or better I was a Nazi in the shadow of a mental breakdown.”
The Duke of Sussex said he looked for support from Prince William and although his older brother understood him, “he couldn’t say very much”.
Harry wrote he later called his father King Charles III and “to my surprise I found him serene”.
Initally suspicious, he thought Charles would consider his son’s predicament “like another opportunity to cement his public image”.
However, the Duke of Sussex said he was grateful at his father’s response, which treated it as a mistake of the young.
But in other shocking claims, Harry alleges it was William and his wife Kate, Princess of Wales, who encouraged him to wear the Nazi uniform, claiming the couple “howled” with laughter when they saw it.
