A Clip of Prince Harry’s ‘60 Minutes’ Interview Is Here, and It’s Incredibly Dramatic
Prince Harry is once again speaking out in what looks to be a wide-ranging 60 Minutes interview with Anderson Cooper next Sunday in anticipation of his memoir, Spare. First of all, here’s a very dramatic trailer for the interview, which dropped last night:
But we also got a clip from the show featuring Anderson saying to Harry, “One of the criticisms that you’ve received is that well, okay, fine, you want to move to California, you want to step back from the institutional role, why be so public? You say you tried to do this privately.”
In response, we see Harry nod his head and say, “And every single time I’ve tried to do it privately, there have been briefings and leakings and planting of stories against me and my wife. You know, the family motto is ‘never complain, never explain.’ But it’s just a motto. And it doesn’t really hold….”
Harry then confirmed that there is “endless” complaining and explaining being done through leaks, saying, “They will feed or have a conversation with the correspondent and that correspondent will literally be spoon-fed information and write the story, and then the bottom of it, they say that they’ve reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment. But the whole story is Buckingham Palace commenting. So when we’re being told for the past six years, we can’t put a statement out to protect you, but you do it for other members of the family, there becomes a point where silence is betrayal.”
Harry’s 60 Minutes interview drops Sunday, January 8 on CBS—just two days ahead of Spare’s release.
