A friend of King Charles has said he is "perplexed" by Prince Harry's claims in his memoir and argues that the Duke is "clearly a very troubled man".
Excerpts from the book, Spare, have been widely shared in the last 48 hours since copies were discovered on-sale accidentally early at a Spanish bookshop. Among accusations include one aimed at his brother, as well as personal details of his love life and his time in Afghanistan.
The book has baffled broadcaster Jonathan Dimbleby, who told BBC Radio 4's Today programme he imagines the King is "extremely pained” by the ongoing onslaught aimed at the Royal Family, the Mirror reports.
