Lorraine was discussing the Prince Harry interview on Monday

"Because you could see how well they worked together as a team and the things that they could do. I've always said this, it would be so good if somehow they could have made that work."

The broadcaster's comments come the morning after Harry sat down with Tom Bradby to discuss many revelations that have already come to light from his upcoming memoir, Spare, which is due for official release on Tuesday.

Tom, who has known Harry for over 20 years, flew out to California in December for the interview, during which the royal discussed the death of his mother, Princess Diana, his relationship with his father King Charles, and brother, Prince William, and his attitude towards the British press.

Beginning the interview with an explanation as to why he decided to write his in-depth memoir, Harry said: "38 years, 38 years of having my story told by so many different people, um, with intentional spin and distortion felt like a good time to own my story and be able to tell it for myself.

"You know, I don't, I don't think that if I was still part of the Institution that I would have been given this chance to. So, I'm actually really grateful that I've had the opportunity to tell my story because it's my story to tell."
