Prince Harry Following Meghan Markle's Way Of Developing Truth: Royal Expert

Prince Harry's biographer, Angela Levin, reacted to his statement that he didn't hear about therapy in the royal household.

The author of "Harry: Biography of a Prince" joined Nana Akua on GB News, and they discussed the Duke of Sussex's claim that he hadn't heard the word "therapy" or "coaching" when he was with the royal family. Levin, who just published her new royal book "Camilla: From Outcast to Queen Consort" and spoke at lengths with Meghan Markle's husband for his biography, brought up their previous conversations.

"Well, it's absolutely wrong because when I interviewed him for my biography of him in 2017, we talked a great deal about mental health," Levin explained.

She recounted that Prince Harry was going out with Markle, so he asked the royal prince if his girlfriend was aware of his mental struggles, and if she encouraged him to get help.

"Absolutely not, she's not involved in the tool," Prince Harry replied.

Akua commented on Levin's statement, "So this is first-hand?" confirming that the information was something she got straight from Prince Harry and the latter said, "It is first hand." Akua jokingly said if she talked to someone else, and Levin said she only talked to Prince Harry about the issue.

Levin said it was "interesting" because in 2013, years before Prince Harry met Markle, his brother, Prince William, was already encouraging him to get some help and see someone who could help him.

The Duke of Sussex told Levin he turned it down and "buried my head in the sand." Prince Harry allegedly told her he was panicked-stricken because he was aware that he was not "mentally sound."

She also mentioned the charity that Prince Harry, Prince William and Kate Middleton founded, Heads Together, a mental health initiative that combines a campaign to tackle the stigma and change the conversation on mental health with a series of fundraising innovations for new mental health services. Levin believed that therapy was unlikely to be included in the discussion.

"I think unfortunately Prince Harry is following Meghan's way and he's developing his own truth about things,'" Levin said of Prince Harry. "It's ridiculous now the way that the two of them don't seem to mind whether it's wrong or whether it's untrue —it's their truth."

She added that some people would only remember what they first read and ignore what the keen journalists found out.

Prince Harry's biographer added that she was disappointed with what Prince William's brother said because it was "as if nobody cared about him when he was very mentally unwell." She added that he attended a lot of therapy sessions before Markle, and he hadn't waited for her to tell him to do it.

International Business Times could not independently verify Levin's claims.

Prince Harry opened up about his mental health at the inaugural Masters of Scale Summit on Oct. 19. Doron Weber, VP and program director of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, was in attendance and tweeted what the royal had said at the event.

"Prince Harry says growing up in the royal family & and then spending 10 years in the military, he never heard the words 'therapy' or 'coaching,'" Weber tweeted before adding, "Then the blinkers came off and his life changed."

Meanwhile, Duncan Larcombe, a former royal editor at The Sun and author of "Prince Harry: The Inside Story," told Fox News Digital that Prince Harry was "a very lost soul" and someone who was "vulnerable to influences." He also seemingly echoed Levin's opinion about Prince Harry following what Markle does.

"It's normal [for] Harry not to have his father in his life because Meghan doesn't. It's normal for Harry to go touring around for business and trying to secure the next book deal or TV deal because Meghan does. Harry's living his life as normal because it's Meghan's normal," Larcombe claimed.
