英王室は「兄のため喜んでうそをついた」 ヘンリー王子

【ロンドンＡＦＰ＝時事】米動画配信大手ネットフリックスは１２日、今週配信するヘンリー英王子（３８）と妻メーガン妃（４１）のドキュメンタリー番組後編３話の予告編を公開した。王子はその中で、王室が兄ウィリアム皇太子（４０）のために「喜んでうそをついた」と主張しており、英王族間の確執がさらに深まる見通しだ。（写真はヘンリー王子とウィリアム皇太子）
　予告編でヘンリー王子は、王室が「組織的な心理操作」を行っていたと非難。王室は「兄を守るためには喜んでうそをついたが、私たちを守るために真実を語ろうとは決してしなかった」と主張した。メーガン妃も、２０２０年に夫妻が王室を離脱し北米に移住した後「自分はオオカミに餌として与えられた」と語った。
　８日に配信されたドキュメンタリー番組「ハリー＆メーガン」の前編３話で、夫妻は王室が王子の母ダイアナ元皇太子妃とメーガン妃を大衆紙の過熱報道から守らなかったと非難。王族についても、人種をめぐる無意識の偏見があるなどと主張したが、批判のほとんどは報道機関や王室の広報活動に向けられた。
　後編３話ではより厳しい批判が展開されるとみられており、最新予告編でウィリアム皇太子が直接言及されたことでこの予想は裏付けられた。【翻訳編集ＡＦＰＢＢＮｅｗｓ】

The trailer for the latest episodes of the docuseries on Prince Harry and his wife Meghan was released on Monday, with the royal feud set to escalate with a claim that Buckingham Palace was happy to lie for his brother William.
Meghan, 41, separately claims she was fed to the wolves after the pair quit royal life in early 2020 and moved to North America
In one excerpt, Harry, 38, accuses Buckingham Palace of institutional gaslighting and said they were happy to lie to protect my brother but were never willing to tell the truth to protect us.
The first three episodes of Harry & Meghan were released last Thursday, with the couple -- also known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex -- criticising the royal family for failing to protect her and his mother Diana against tabloid excesses.
Most of the accusations were against the media and the palace press operation, although the couple did direct several barbs against the royal family, including of unconscious racial bias.
Direct mention of Harry's brother, heir to the throne Prince William, 40, in the latest trailer confirmed suspicions that more pointed criticisms may have been saved for last.
As we all suspected last week, the gloves are off, wrote Daily Mail royal correspondent Rebecca English while her counterpart at ITV, Chris Ship, said: It's getting dirty.
Harry in late 2019 all but confirmed a rift with his older brother and the pair have reportedly hardly spoken since, even at the unveiling of a statue of their mother last year and the September state funeral of their grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
In previous trailers, Harry has spoken about a 'dirty game' and 'planting' stories, ITV's Ship assessed.
This clip suggests he is going to blame his brother, or at least the people around him, for some of the stories about the Sussexes which appeared in the press. That is a dramatic escalation.
So far the palace has declined to respond to the programme but commentators suggested it may be forced to if criticism gets personal.
