When reports that part of the reason Meghan and Harry were stepping down as working royals was due to Will bullying, the Palace took no time at all in releasing a letter denying the claims. "Once I got in the car after the meeting [at Sandringham], I was told about a joint statement that had been put out in my name and my brother's name squashing the story about him bullying us out of the family," Harry said.
The problem was, Harry had nothing to do with the letter. "I couldn't believe it. No one had asked me. No one had asked me permission to put my name to a statement like that," Harry shared. "And I rang M and I told her, and she burst into floods of tears, because within four hours, they were happy to lie to protect my brother, and yet for three years, they were never willing to tell the truth to protect us."
It was then that Harry and Meghan realised that the Palace was never going to defend them.
