During the shock interview he told how he has “forgiven” the Royal family, despite being criticised for not apologising himself.
He said: “I have no idea how much longer my father has – he is no longer speaking to me – but it would be nice to reconcile.”
On The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, Royal Royal Editor asked: “Has Prince Harry ruined any chance of reconciliation with the King?
“Has he set fire to any olive branches that may well have emerged from Buckingham Palace after this BBC interview following his security case defeat?”
Royal author Robert Jobson replied: “He’s done so much damage.
“He’s criticised the Queen, the King’s wife.
“He’s attacked his brother, called his brother a bully, and attacked his brother’s wife.
“And then what does he expect?”
Robert pinned the interview as an “emotional outburst” and said the interview was a mistake for anyone looking to make amends, suggesting the Royal couldn’t be trusted anymore.
He added: “The big problem with Harry is that even if there was an attempt at a reconciliation with a private conversation, you can’t trust him that those conversations would probably become public.
In the scathing attack after losing his appeal, the Duke of Sussex unleashed a host of new claims including how his dad Charles is no longer speaking to him.
He said he would “love reconciliation” with the royal family but claims whether they will make up will ultimately be up to his father, saying: “It’s in his hands.”
Legendary Royal photographer Arthur Edwards said given the interview was so widely broadcasted it gave Harry the chance to right some wrongs – something he didn’t do.
He said: ” When he had the chance to correct a lot of it, he didn’t do that.
“He didn’t say ‘look, I probably got that wrong, Dad, and I’m sorry, William.’
“I mean, what he did, it was pretty treacherous.”
Throughout the interview, Harry also hit out at the UK saying he felt “let down” by his country and claims he will no longer be returning to his homeland.
Despite his claims of seeking a reconciliation, Harry insisted he had no regrets even if his family would never forgive him.
Arthur believes if this is what Harry truly wants, he should have taken a different approach during his interview.
He continued: “If he’d have said in that interview ‘I’m sorry Dad for what I’ve done,’ I think then the King would have probably said ‘okay let’s have a chat.’
“All he needs to do is say sorry and that he’s not going to do it again, not going to betray the Royal family again – he just got it all wrong.”
The Duke of Sussex said he would “love reconciliation” with the royal family after years of feuding but experts are cautious that the chance of this are slipping away.
Harry has been fighting with his own brother Prince William, since he and Meghan stepped down as working royals in 2020.
Now that he has participated in the lengthy court battle over taxpayer-funded security he said has been fighting with his father.
Another tragic revelation in the bombshell interview was when Prince Harry revealed that King Charles, won’t speak to him.
Harry said when making the emotional admission: “He won’t speak to me because of this security stuff.”
In the interview, he added: “There have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family.”
Hopes of reconciliation may be spurred on by Harry’s concerns for his father’s health sharing: “I don’t know how long he has left.”
He continued: “There is no point in continuing to fight any more.
“Life is precious.”
Shortly after the wave-making interview, the BBC admitted an embarrassing “lapse in standards” over its coverage of Harry’s security case court loss.
The following morning, the BBC flagship current affairs programme Radio 4 stunned listeners in a one-sided interview with former close protection officer Richard Aitch.
In a statement on their website the BBC said: “The programme covered the latest developments in the story of Prince Harry and his legal case around protection for him and his family in the UK and interviewed former close protection officer Richard Aitch to get a broader understanding of security considerations.
They added: “Claims were repeated that the process had been ‘an establishment stitch-up’ and we failed to properly challenge this and other allegations.”
