On the day Prince Harry's bombshell memoir Spare went on sale in Spain, footage has shown the Duke of Sussex refusing to confirm whether he will attend his father King Charles' coronation

In a second trailer for his ITV interview with Tom Bradby, which you can watch below, Prince Harry is asked if he will fly over to the UK to attend the ceremony in May.

"There's a lot that can happen between now and then," he said. "But, the door is always open. The ball is in their court.

"There's a lot to be discussed and I really hope that they're willing to sit down and talk about it."

Tom also questions Harry about his decision to discuss his relationships with family members in his memoir, Spare.

"I don't know how staying silent is ever going to make things better," the Duke responded.

Tom, who was once close to both Prince William and Prince Harry, then asked: "Wouldn't your brother say to you, 'Harry, how could you do this to me after everything? After everything we went through?'  Wouldn't that be what he would say?"

Prince Harry said: "He would probably say all sorts of different things."

Tom goes on: "Some people will say you’ve railed against invasions of your privacy all your life and the accusation will be here are you invading the privacy of your nearest and dearest without permission, now that will be the accusation."

The Duke replies: "That would be the accusation from people that don't understand or don't want to believe that my family have been briefing the press."

Harry says he still believes in the monarchy but when asked if he will play a part in its future, he replies: "I don't know."

The latest trailer comes as extracts of Harry's autobiography were leaked to The Guardian newspaper, in which he claims that he was physically attacked by William during a row at Nottingham Cottage in 2019.

Another leaked extract shared by Page Six, sees Harry claim that William and Kate allegedly approved of him wearing a Nazi uniform to a costume party in 2005.
