LONDON \u2014 Prince Harry will deliver another highly publicized blow to Britain’s royal family Sunday, in a pair of TV interviews two days before the publication of his much-anticipated memoir. <\/p>\n
In conversations with Tom Bradby, a news presenter at British broadcaster ITV, and with Anderson Cooper on CBS’ \u201c60 Minutes,\u201d Harry is expected to shed more light on the acrimonious royal split.<\/p>\n
Timed to coincide with the release of his autobiography, \u201cSpare,\u201d trailers from both interviews show Harry accusing his family of fueling negative news coverage about him and his wife, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.<\/p>\n
In the interview with Cooper, which airs Sunday at 7:30 pm ET, Harry says he has spoken out publicly because \u201cEvery single time I’ve tried to do it privately, there have been briefings and leakings and planting of stories against me and my wife.\u201d<\/p>\n
He adds that statements were not put out to protect his family from some of the media coverage and \u201cthere becomes a point when silence is betrayal.\u201d <\/p>\n
Harry also says his family was \u201cbriefing the press,\u201d in the interview with Bradby, which airs Sunday on Britain’s ITV1 channel and its streaming platform, ITVX, at 9 pm local time (4 pm ET).<\/p>\n
He also refuses to commit to attending the May coronation of his father, King Charles III. <\/p>\n
\u201cThere’s a lot that can happen between now and then. But you know, the door is always open. The ball is in their court,\u201d he says when asked whether he will attend. \u201cI really hope that they are willing to sit down and talk about it.\u201d <\/p>\n
He says that he still believes in the British monarchy, but that he doesn’t know what role he would play in its future. <\/p>\n
