Harry and Meghan, who stepped back as senior working royals in January 2020, recently spoke about where their relationship stands with some members of the royal family during an interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Harry said his relationship with his older brother is space, at the moment though it was his father, Charles, whom he felt let down by.

He knows what pain feels like, and Archies his grandson, Harry said. But at the same time, of course I will always love him. But theres a lot of hurt thats happened and I will continue to make it one of my priorities to try and heal that relationship.

The couple didnt name names, but they did later clarify that it was not the queen or the late Prince Philip. William later addressed the claims by telling a reporter that the royals are very much not a racist family.
