Although she said Charles will be “devastated” by Harry’s charges, Ms Wyatt said the King will “forgive his son anything” because he feels responsible “for the way it turned out”.
Prince Harry, a ‘self-proclaimed feminist’, today faces charges of ‘gross hypocrisy’ for making extraordinary and ‘disgusting’ attacks on the character of his stepmother, Queen Consort Camilla, in his explosive memoir.
Speaking to ITV’s Good Morning Britain today, Camilla’s friend and journalist Petronella Wyatt slammed Harry’s fierce criticism of the queen consort.
“I think Harry is a tremendous hypocrite because he’s an outspoken feminist and yet he takes this very disgusting shot at a 75-year-old woman who can’t respond. So where is his feminism?” Ms Wyatt said.
“If someone accused Meghan of plotting her marriage for the royal family… that makes Harry howl, then why is he doing the same to Camilla? And why is he taking absolutely no responsibility for his own mistakes that Camilla did not leak to the press?».
She continued: ‘There was an example of a leak by one of his assistants that was unintentional, and the assistant was promptly fired. But he has never reported against him… he would never do that, he is a very very kind person, he is very sensitive when it comes to the two princes and he doesn’t have any ambition.
Describing Harry’s interviews as “very provocative”, Ms Wyatt said of the King: “He adores Camilla and he’s going to be devastated here.”
‘More than Camilla, because Camilla will get through everything and keep smiling, keep going with the job. She never gives in to self-pity. But Charles adores her and will be deeply hurt. However, even though they have said that she is a red line, I think Charles will forgive Harry anything.
“Royal sources said that the red line that I shouldn’t” cross was Camilla, I shouldn’t attack Camilla.
“But I honestly think that Charles, who is a very decent man, will forgive his son anything and he has a slight guilt complex about the way he behaved and maybe blames himself a little bit.”
Ms Wyatt told GMB: “I grew to like Camilla a lot because she’s a very modest, no-frills, down-to-earth person… the complete opposite of a schemer.” She wouldn’t know how to plan, she couldn’t even spell it on a Scrabble board. She is genuinely one of the nicest people I have ever met.
‘I have not had contact with the Palace, and other journalists I know have not had contact with the Palace.
“The Palace hasn’t said a word, and it’s just one example of Harry’s impressive hypocrisy and detachment from reality.”
Although she said Charles will be “devastated” by Harry’s charges, Ms Wyatt said the King will “forgive his son anything” because he feels responsible “for the way it turned out”.

As the duke continued a series of high-profile promotional interviews, he said he would “like nothing more” for his sons to have relationships with the royal family.
His comments about his son and daughter came despite criticism he has leveled at his brother William, father Charles and stepmother Camilla.
In her first print interview about her autobiography, she told US magazine People that Archie, three, and 19-month-old Lili had a connection to some of the Windsors, whom she did not name, saying this brought her “great joy”. . .
He also described his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, as his “guardian angel” and said that she is with him “all the time”.
Bookstores in the UK opened early on Tuesday to offer Harry’s book, but queues were thin after leaks ahead of publication, and industry insiders predicted Spare would be one of the best-selling pre-order titles. of the last decade.
It sells for £14, not the recommended retail price of £28, at places like Waterstones and WH Smith, as well as online at Amazon.
Only one person was waiting outside the main Waterstones branch in Piccadilly, central London, when it opened at 8 a.m.
Caroline Lennon, 59, who walked two miles from Bethnal Green in the East End to arrive at 6am, said: “People will criticize me and say: ‘What a jerk for liking Harry. What a jerk for standing in line’ but I do not care what anyone else says’.
Other royal fans had queued for the stores to open at midnight, with a handful waiting outside WH Smith in London’s Victoria station to be among the first to buy a copy.
In his interview with People magazine, which featured a flattering photo op, Harry said of his book, which was written by JR Moehringer: “I don’t want to tell anyone what to think about it, and that includes my family.” This book and its truths are, in many ways, a continuation of my own mental health journey.
“It’s a raw account of my life: the good, the bad, and everything in between.”
William, Charles, Harry, Camilla, Kate and Meghan leave Westminster Abbey after attending the Annual Commonwealth Service on March 9, 2020.
Harry and Meghan arrive at Windsor Castle to view flowers and tributes to the late Queen Elizabeth II on September 10, 2022.
Adding that he had hopes of reconciliation, the duke said: “I would like nothing more than for our children to have relationships with members of my family, and they do with some, which gives me great joy.”
Harry is known to be close with his cousin Princess Eugenie, who has visited him in the United States.
Archie and Lili are the king’s grandchildren, but live thousands of miles from the Windsors in California, and the duke has confessed that he hasn’t spoken to Charles in “quite a while” and is not in text contact with William at the moment.
Harry will also guest-star on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert in the US on Tuesday night.
The most light-hearted interview footage appeared to show Harry getting shots of tequila, and while following the show, Colbert made jokes about Harry and William’s sibling rivalry, comparing his life to Harry Potter’s.
That’s heartbreaking. Being rejected by his older brother at school even though that magic hat sorted them into the same house. What do you think? Hufflepuff? Gryffindor? Colbert said.
“Stock up on corgis and steal a priceless cultural treasure from one of your colonies, because The Late Show is getting imperial.”
Harry has faced criticism for his revelation in Spare that he killed 25 Taliban members during the Afghan war.
He has also shared candid admissions of drug use throughout his life, of losing his virginity to an older woman in a field as a teenager, and freezing his penis off.
The Duke revealed how the Queen questioned the Duchess of Sussex about her opinion of Donald Trump the first time the two women met, but “Meg thought politics was a dead-end game, so she changed the subject to Canada.” .
He recounted how the former Suits star did not recognize the Duke of York, who was holding the queen’s bag when he joined them, and thought he was the monarch’s attendant.
Harry also recounted how an ‘overly upset’ William called him to say ‘People at Pa and Camilla had planted a story or stories about him and Kate and the children’.
And the duke caused shock waves in an interview with ITV’s Tom Bradby when he denied calling the royal family racist in his interview with Oprah Winfrey.
She blamed the stance on the British press despite Meghan’s claim that an unnamed royal raised “concerns” about how dark their unborn child’s skin might be.
The 407-page book shows Harry expressing his frustration at being the ‘spare heir’, his anger at the UK media, his unresolved trauma over his mother’s death, his mental health issues, his life lonely before meeting Meghan and the breakdown of their family relationships.
