Buckingham Palace responds to Prince Harry interviews by issuing 'demand' to channels

The law firm representing Buckingham Palace responded to Prince Harry's bombshell interviews by issuing a demand that the TV channels ultimately turned down.

The Duke of Sussex, 38, has given a series of tell-all interviews ahead of the release of his memoir Spare, including to ITV's Tom Bradby in the UK, in which he made a series of explosive claims about life in the Royal Family. And as his interview with Good Morning America aired on Monday, the programme confirmed that Buckingham Palace had been in touch with an urgent request to the network, The Mirror reports.

ABC presenter Michael Strahan, who interviewed Prince Harry, explained: "We received a response from the law firm representing Buckingham Palace this morning while we were on the air, saying that the Palace needed to 'consider exactly what is said in the interview in the context in which it appears', and asked that we supply them immediately with a copy of the entire interview, which we do not do as a news organisation as a matter of our policy."
