A few days since Peter Phillips made a comment about Prince Harry, at an arts and literature festival in Wales, finally his reaction has come to light.

The entire thing has been revealed by a well placed Palace source who just dished it all.

According to New Idea they’ve said, “Harry’s crushed after Mike’s comments and wants an explanation. Mike was someone he always respected and he’s dreamed of making peace with him one day. He’s shocked Mike would go out of his way to trash him. He can’t believe it.”

Another thing the source pointed out was also how a ‘silent’ message’ has also gone through to the royal and it is due to this that they feel Harry and Meghan “would be foolish” to try and go to the wedding, effectively ‘gatecrash’ the day. Reason being “if Mike’s public sledging isn’t a clear enough message, his aunt Anne has sent through a warning to Harry not to mess with her son’s wedding.”

“If Harry and Meghan want Archie and Lilibet to be welcomed into the fold when they’re adults, they need to think carefully about their actions.”

Before concluding they also said, “Anne’s warned Harry the children could turn on him one day. That was a brutal divorce and Anne didn’t think she’d ever see him smile again after that. Even though their two daughters are part of the bridal party, it will ruffle feathers if she’s there.”

What is pertinent to mention is that an earlier report also claimed the Sussexs are considering this gatecrashing approach because they feel having Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet in toe would make it near impossible to turn them away.
