Speaking about whether he still feels controlled by the media, Prince Harry told Oprah: "They're desperately trying to control the narrative because they know if they lose it, the truth will come out."

Harry continued: "I like to think that we were able to speak truth in the most compassionate way possible therefore leaving an opening for reconciliation and healing. The interview was about being real, being authentic, and hopefully sharing an experience that we know is relatable to people around the world, despite our unique privileged position."

Reflecting on his decision to quit royal life, Harry, who is expecting a baby daughter with his wife Meghan this summer, added: "Towards my late 20s I was starting to ask questions of 'Should I really be here?' and that was when I suddenly started going, 'You can't keep hiding from this.'

"Family members have said, 'Just play the game and your life will be easier,' but I've got a hell of a lot of my mum in me. I feel as though I'm outside of the system, but I'm still stuck there. The only way to free yourself and break out is to tell the truth."
