Susanna Reid responds to 'painful' Prince Harry and William claims as ITV Good Morning Britain viewers 'sick'

Susanna Reid has had her say on the claims Prince Harry has made about his brother Prince William, saying it's "so painful". The presenter made her comments on Good Morning Britain after the Duke of Sussex has reportedly claimed he was physically attacked by his brother over his marriage to Meghan Markle.

In a leaked extract of his highly anticipated autobiography, Spare, to The Guardian newspaper, Prince Harry alleged the confrontation took place at his London home in 2019 and had left him with a visible injury to his back after the now-Prince of Wales grabbed his brother by the collar and ripped his necklace before knocking him to the floor.

Harry further claimed William had called the American actress "difficult", "rude" and "abrasive" – comments which the younger brother said parroted "the press narrative" about his wife. According to The Guardian newspaper, the "extraordinary scene" is "one of many in Spare", Harry's memoir, which is due to be published on January 10.
