Prince Harry has been dealt another blow as podcast host Billy Bush claimed that Prince William and Princess Catherine are working to shift positive attention back to the Royal Family through charity work, according to his Hot Mics show.
Speaking on the podcast, Bush said the couple are making "subtle moves" while Meghan Markle's name returns to headlines over allegations against her father, Thomas Markle Sr. The 82-year-old is under investigation in the Philippines after his son reported finding hundreds of alleged child sexual abuse images at his former home. Markle Sr strongly denies the allegations.
Bush's Claims on Hot Mics
Bush said: "Harry is down, he's making moves, he's trying to make appearances. He's trying to bring in the media and soften his relationship with the media."
He added: "William is not giving Harry the pass. Prince William is done. The future king is p***ed. You don't take off from the Royal Family like this and our duty and our birthright and all this stuff, and then come back and go, 'No problem, let's be a family again!'"
Kate's Subtle Moves
Bush continued: "Princess Kate was making some nice, subtle moves at the weekend. Slow and steady moves, while the embarrassment unfolds for Meghan. She's not rubbing it in; she would never. She's too classy a woman."
He referenced a picture Kate posted showing positive work by her family, including a rescue organisation helping people. "Always nice, right? Making gains here! While Meghan is dealing with a degenerate father who's getting busted by his son in the Philippines, hiding out in the Philippines? We're helping people, we're doing charity events here. Right now it's not even close."
Markle Sr Investigation
Police in the Philippines have obtained a warrant to examine devices allegedly removed from Markle Sr's home. Four boxes of material, including computers, phones and hard drives, were handed to police by Meghan's half-brother.
Markle Sr's ex-wife Roslyn Loveless reportedly sent a letter to the Metropolitan Police in 2019 about the allegations, which was shared with Harry and Meghan at the time. Meghan has been estranged from her father since 2018.
