He said, “You’ve created something special. He’s doing amazing things.” Cambiosa replied, “We play together a lot, you know. You can play with your kid, something that you love,” as reported by The Mirror. Harry asked, “Yeah, but what’s it like playing against your kid?” to which the golf player answered that it is “difficult” adding, “worse when you lose.” Cambiaso said, “You’re proud, but also angry.”
It was followed commentator saying “What a run! Ladies and gentlemen what a run and what a goal by the prince. Give it up, if you will, for the Duke of Sussex,” as a clip of Harry striking a goal played.
This revelation comes amidst the ongoing tension between Prince Harry and his father, which has been exacerbated by the fallout from Megxit. It also follows the controversial allegations Harry made in his previous Netflix documentary, where he accused the Royal Family of various transgressions.
Prince Harry’s strained relationship with King Charles
Prince Harry’s relationship with King Charles has been marked by tension and public fallout, especially following Harry’s decision to step back from royal duties in 2020, a move widely known as Megxit.
The situation escalated with the release of Harry’s tell-all memoir Spare in January 2023, where he revealed intimate details of his strained relationship with King Charles, including claims of feeling ignored and betrayed by his father.
The Duke also alleged that his father and brother, Prince William, had failed to support him during difficult times. This public airing of family grievances deepened the rift between Harry and the rest of the royal family, with King Charles reportedly deeply hurt by his son’s remarks.
