Prince Harry shares an intimate royal news. Does the Duke of Sussex see himself more as a grandson or as a subject when he catches the British monarch behind the scenes?
London – What is it like to meet a formidable personality like Queen Elizabeth II (95) in the aisle of Buckingham Palace? Beyond the crown, is she a loving grandmother who plays with grandchildren and great-grandchildren and occasionally slips them sweets? In a documentary, Prince Harry (37) chatted out of the box and revealed what it was like for him as a grandson to meet the regent in the palace corridors.
His reaction should surprise many, reveals 24royal.de *
With “Queen of the World” director Matt Hill (54) provided an exclusive insight into the life of Queen Elizabeth II* and her husband Prince Philip* (99, † 2021), the Duke of Edinburgh, who was still alive at the time. The 2018 documentary also includes material from the royal couple’s and the Royal Family*’s private film archive.
In an excerpt from the documentary, the Duke of Sussex* talks about the Queen’s role as head of the Commonwealth. With mischievous eyes, the son of Prince Charles*, 73, recounts the feeling of “panic” he felt when he met his grandmother in the corridors of Buckingham Palace.
The scene shows the prince talking to staff who just started work at the palace two weeks ago. The father of two is now very open about his personal relationship with the Queen.
He also provides information about the frequency of his palace visits when he says in the clip: “You [the new staff] have spent a lot more time at Buckingham Palace* than I have – and you’ve only been here for two weeks.” His follow-up question: ” Have you met the Queen yet?” he answers himself: “I know you will meet her. We all do!” In a previous 2016 BBC documentary, Elizabeth at 90, he revealed how difficult it was to see the monarch as just his grandmother. He sees more of the queen in her, he revealed. * 24royal.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA
