"He Hates Him"-Billy Bush Shares BRUTAL DETAILS of Prince William and Prince Harry's Royal Feud

I want to talk about Harry and Meghan. They're back in London. Why? Why did they go? Harry missed home. Money opportunities. Did they dry up here in Montecito in Los Angeles in the entertainment business? Does he want to heal with dad? Maybe one day, you know, you can't heal with William if you don't get a little closer to him. Kind of start wearing him down a little bit. All of the above. There's many security concerns. remember uh last year May of 2023 after losing his appeal over his security arrangements you know while he's on British soil Harry said as clear as day I can't see a world in which I'd bring my wife and children back to the UK at this point that was May 2023 what are we a year and a half later not even less than a year and a half later and all of a sudden you're already there uh Harry took to the government took the government to court over the decision to strip him of taxpayer financed police protection after he stepped down as a working royal he lost that BBC now reports that that decision will be reassessed because they're not visiting anymore they actually live there now so maybe that's a different situation uh he's not a working royal and that he has no official functions right there's no desk at Buckingham Palace he has no staff other than the ones he pays for granny his grandmother rejected the whole half in half out option so Harry what does Harry do he's still doing the Invictus Games which is again I don't think he gets paid for that maybe he does um he's close to a bunch of other charities because of his mother died. Meghan is still operating as ever. He has a vibrant tabloid war going. He hates the tabloids. Of course, look what they did to his mother. He said he fears the same fate for Meghan, which is why they went to America. In his lawsuit against the Daily Mirror, he testified that he moved to California due to the constant intrusion, inciting of hatred and harassment by the tabloid press into every aspect of our private lives, which had a devastating impact on our mental health and our well-being. How does this guy go back after saying that? And yet, Harry and Meghan serve up photos of their kids all the time with pictures always blurred or stars over their faces, or you just see their little feet seized by the fireplace. It's almost like bait. It's really sort of annoying um there's major major you know family strife i i can't imagine a world be hard to find a world where somehow you know he heals with William and i think he's a pretty popular guy harry but uh but his wife his wife kind of struggles a bit she's the executive editor of Page Six she's a brit with bite my friend Melanie Bromley darling let's is the move working for Harry and Meghan it's only been a little over a month gosh if i had to say yes or no i would say probably at the moment no it really feels like they have you know kind of like flown over to England and and bombarded and kind of forced themselves into this like british royal family and I'm not sure it's going so well now that's just me from the outside you know I think if you were to look at them and be expecting them walking down the road with William and Kate playing happy families like that like if you're if you're waiting for that then of course that's not happening but we're also it's kind of their life in London and England and the Cotswolds just seems a little bit strained from the rest of the royal family. Is the Cotswolds as beautiful as it sounds? I feel like I really need to go to Cotswolds. Pick something in America. What is the American Cotswolds? Well, you know, I've only just moved over to the East Coast. So I've only just been to Connecticut for the first time after 20 years in New York. But I would say that kind of New England, gorgeous, like a little bit rainy. You have to wear Wellington boots. Think about all that but then you get like log fires in the house so it's cozy it's the opposite of california it's absolutely on my bucket list and i'm going i'm going for like several months i'm going to rent a house for three months in the cotswolds so i really you have to i will give you recommendations of which pubs to go to and what to do and it's gorgeous oh a pub with a fireplace in the cotswolds oh my god that's all i need okay so they give several reasons right did the money dry up here in, you know, in Santa Barbara, in California, where there are no more opportunities. They blew it with the podcast. They blew it with Netflix. Harry says, I want my children to really know my motherland and go to school here. And of course, you know, there's reuniting with his father and maybe down the road somewhere with a lot of effort. William, where do you rank the reasons why they did this? You know, I think life in California is super expensive. And it's especially expensive if you're trying to keep up a life living in a multi-million dollar house in Montecito. And, you know, you need to have a lot of money coming in to cover those costs. So, you know, when we were kind of working out how much it was costing them to be there, it was maybe, I'm trying to think, but like half a million, I think, every single year. And that's before you've kind of taken into account the schooling and all the other things that come as far as security and so forth so like it was a lot of money going to England Harry does have a great circle of friends we know that they've been staying with some friends we know that Harry like has a very big support network now that's even outside of his brother and his father he just has a wide circle here it's easy for them to do things here and it also you would be forgiven if you were following their life in the uk now to not like mistake them for being royals they're doing their public appearances they're doing it looks like they're doing royal appearances but actually they're not but then at the same time harry's also going and doing speeches and he came to new york for a bit he did his master class of course on grief they are earning money but actually to live a nice life in the UK is cheaper and it's also where he you know knows it's where he belongs so it's where he belongs actually maybe i take that back it's where he knows and so like there is kind of obvious reasons to go back to the UK and take on top of all of that Prince Charles's health he's not going to be around forever so and Harry does have a relationship with his dad yes it's strange but he has a relationship so of course he wants to be near his father as well Wills i don't know uh it's going to take a while for Wills he's not he's very pissed off at Harry for taking off and granny granny was the one who said there's no half in and there's no half out none of this they're not working royals um they don't you know the fact that they can cherry pick their events i understand the first one they did in Nottingham went quite well the the crowd was happy to see them that will settle it's always the first one that's kind of nice i'm just wondering how they make their money i feel like they're professional charity patrons right this is our our our really we we just go to charity events and we're seen now we can't get paid for that or it's not charity i mean it's not charity you can get maybe your security bill paid or something like that maybe that's inflated but the you but the charities and their attendance is what builds the profile exactly they must make money elsewhere so how does that work exactly i mean the more relevant they are the more in the public eye they are the more the demand is for them from the private sector right so whether you're being paid to speak at a conference on tech and online bullying or whether you're being paid like it's that kind of stuff that will bring in the money and also for Megan like whether it's acting you know it just kind of it depends I think it's I think what's so interesting about all of this is that the big money initially was made with spare the book the Netflix deal the Spotify deal all of those and those have kind of petered out right like it's just like Netflix yes their documentary was incredible but their project since then have not been successful so like it's now like where else can they find the money and i do feel for them billy because these are two people that actually it's very difficult like if you and i lost our jobs and we absolutely needed to get a job we could go and work anywhere you know we could go and work at starbucks like harry can't he can't do that he can never live a normal life so they have to find other ways to make money and it is going to be easier in the the UK because of just like the fact that costs of living are lower and because he has a circle of friends there. And he said that. Melanie, I don't see William and Harry reuniting anytime soon. I think William has his his resentment for Harry must be so deep that all of a sudden you now you're back. He hates him even more now. He's pushed himself. The whole point of you leaving in the first place was that you couldn't get a fair shake here and that the media was so brutal on you and you were worried about Meghan. And so you had to go to now you're back, you're back and still not working and wearing your medallions and doing all the things that we're supposed to do or raised to do. I think he hates him even more. I totally agree, because actually, I think from William's perspective and I'm not upset with William for not forgiving Harry, right? Because what Harry said in the spare book was unforgivable and like William is now carrying the weight of the crown and the royal family he knows his dad's not going to be around forever he's carrying that alone with his family the more that Harry and Meghan like when they went off that put more pressure on William and Kate so I'm not mad at William for how he feels but if I was William having Harry now in my face trying to like still talking about our rift still talking about our argument that would really really annoy me but I so I feel very sorry for William somebody was racist in the royal family not granny we assume it was an aunt or something but I mean that's just got to be how do you forgive that I don't know Billy I actually don't know and the fact that they're over that and here's what's going to be really interesting is that it is going to become is public perception going to change so you said that their their um public appearance they were there was a positive reaction to it. There has been for some. Some people are really big supporters of Harry and Meghan. Some people are not. Harry went to, I can't remember what it was the other day. It was a sports game of sorts and people were booing him. So there's this kind of like mixed public reaction. But times like Christmas, so Christmas in the UK, huge celebration. All of the royal family tends to go to church in Sandringham. They're all photographed. It's what we see as a British public. Harry and Meghan, I think, are coming back to California this Christmas. However, in the future, if they are not invited for that, are people going to start to feel sorry for them? Are they going to start to feel like, oh, the royal family are leaving them out, they're bullying them, poor them? I don't know. It's going to be very interesting how the public starts seeing things. They'll go up, they'll go down. I mean, if Harry and Meghan were like a stock, you know, you could, that's a good one. But Kalshi, Kalshi is my main sponsor on the show. We should be, you know, where, where is, it's like the stock market for these two. Cause you're right. At some point, if they seem to have been blackballed from a family event, oh my God. And then if William is seen as holding out too long, then he looks like the opposite of his image, which is a gentlemanly diplomatic, very, I mean, when William comes over to the United States and handles Donald Trump with great ease and he's showing his statesmanship, you know what I mean? And then if he's seen as being petty with his brother, that won't play well. Yes. Yeah. It's going to be so interesting. And that's kind of what Harry has forced, because Harry being I don't want to be in the royal family anymore. I'm going to America meant that those public occasions he wasn't present to them. It was easy. There was an ocean between them. to explain the differences. But now there isn't. Now there is, gosh, 50 miles. And what about the security issues? Now, Harry, you know, had big clashes with Rupert Murdoch's company, paid him out $13 million in a settlement. He didn't fare so well with the Daily Mirror. He's griped and griped. And one of the reasons he went to America was because he didn't feel safe, as we said. And they voted not to, you know, the king said, we're not giving you state sponsored security. You're not getting police protection. You are not a working royal and all of that. That said, the reason was, is because it was about them visiting. Well, they're not visiting anymore. It's a different landscape. They live there now. And I think the government might be revisiting the issue. How do the people feel? Do the people think that there should be security for them or screw you? no you're on your own i mean first of all we've got to remember with Princess Diana and what happened with her and you know that was a situation where she wasn't some people might say that she wasn't necessarily getting um the protection that she could have had you know i you know it's like it's always debatable like what caused what obviously it was a drink driving incident but you know if anything was to happen to Harry and Meghan of course there would be absolute about it so it's a very delicate situation however if Harry and Meghan are um you know wanting to spend all of this taxpayers money on their security then there would be an uproar about that too so it's going to be an ongoing issue as far as what they can and can't expect but obviously nobody wants Harry and Meghan to be in danger but i mean it's yeah it's a very difficult situation there is um obviously talk about whether there's going to be a i think it's next year is a 30th anniversary of Princess Diana's death and whether there's going to be some sort of Harry helmed documentary on Princess Diana and what that would look like oh the next payday here it comes yeah that could be really really interesting and would that be something that is somebody talking about their memories or would it in any way and i've kind of debated this with my team being looking back at what happened and who was to blame for her death outside of the alcohol so it's kind of like i'm really i'm curious to see where that goes and what kind of questions he will be bringing to the table with that now it's different for harry than megan i think megan is definitely less popular than harry harry he when everything was good he was sort of the favorite right because he was naughty he was charming you know he would go out and party he had the girl he was kind of lovably naughty right Megan came in she's got a she's got a bit tougher hill to climb than than Harry don't you think yes yes she was seen as an outsider and um a lot of grace in the beginning they were all excited about her and this whole thing she was calling out that you know that there was somebody racist in the family but I felt like when she arrived they were like excited like oh my god diversity in the royal family look at this this is so exciting i think she squandered it she squandered it she well because well she did because she was so honest and by the way good on her for being honest in her documentary what you know telling her truth right and so like but if you are a brit and a royalist or a monarchist then that is the idea of criticizing the royal family publicly I don't know it's a very difficult thing I've always liked Meghan because I think that Meghan gave Harry um the confidence that he never had as a spare heir he was always felt to be number two and he met somebody who actually made him feel like he was number one and that's a very very beautiful thing but I also understand why some people yeah it's just it's very difficult i think it's going to be hard for her to come back and to be truly loved but she has given harry a home at a time when he hasn't he moved here for her and i'll say her stock goes up because she just moved there clearly for him it was not her ideas her sacrifice so you gotta give her some points for that in the ever undulating you know harry yeah i absolutely agree the executive editor of Page Six. There she is. Melanie Bromley. Thank you so much, my love. I appreciate it. Good to see you. We were there for William and Kate's wedding together. We've covered a lot of royal things together. I need something royal to cover soon. So if there's like a reuniting or there's like they let him back in or there's some type of ceremony, I'm going. I miss it. To the consuls I go. Yes, exactly. It's lovely speaking to you. Oh, my darling. Thank you so much thank you your mic is your mic is muted billy your mic is muted oh you mute can you can you not unmute me i'm there i am um so what's interesting is everybody in the comment section is talking about the Windsors the Windsors have you seen the Windsors i what is that is it it's different than uh than the Crown i don't know never seen the Windsors and i and and and every Wednesday. And I'm getting texts from friends who live in London who are listening right now live. And they're saying, also, you must see the Windsors. I'm on to that. Fascinating. Fascinating conversation. I want to see how this works out. I am very interested in it. Are you? Do you care about the William Harry, the Harry dad, the Meghan Kate? One of my best friends that I went to high school with, he's a Brit, lives over there, and his wife plays Padel. Oh, that fancy, like, pickleball's already dead. It's Padel now. Plays Padel in the same club league with Kate, Princess Kate. She and Wills love the Padel, apparently.
