A royal expert has highlighted the Duke of Sussex’s previous praise of the Prince of Wales, with another commentator noting the “remarkable” change in tone since. Royal author Robert Jobson took to Twitter to share a quote from a 2017 BBC documentary which saw Harry pay tribute to his father.
The Duke said Charles was there for him and Prince William when their mother Princess Diana died and “tried to do his best”.
Royal commentator Richard Eden commented on Mr Jobson’s tweet: “Yes, a remarkable change in Harry’s attitude.”
Just four years ago Harry – who has quit royal duties have moved to California with Meghan Markle – praised Charles in the BBC documentary Diana, 7 Days.
He said: “One of the hardest things for a parent to have to do is tell your children that your other parent has died.
“How you deal with that, I don’t know.
“But he was there for us. He was the one out of two left. And he tried to do his best and to make sure that we were protected and looked after.
“But he was going through the same grieving process as well.”
However, Harry has since changed his tune and lashed out at his father in a series of recent interviews.

And during an appearance on the Armchair Expert podcast earlier this month, Harry appeared to suggest Charles, the Queen and the late Prince Philip had all failed as parents.
The Duke said he wanted to “break the cycle” of “genetic pain and suffering” for the sake of his own children.
He said of Charles: “He’s treated me the way he was treated, so how can I change that for my own kids?”
Harry also blasted the heir to the throne in his and Meghan’s tell-all TV interview, which aired in March.
The 36-year-old complained his 72-year-old father had stopped taking his calls and cut him off financially after Megxit.
It was one of a number of explosive claims the Sussexes made about the royals in the controversial interview.
The Royal Family is likely to be bracing for further blows with Harry set to reunite with Winfrey to “go deeper” into the mental health stories explored in their Apple TV series.
The pair will join participants and experts to host a “town hall” discussion entitled The Me You Can’t See: A Path Forward, which will air tomorrow.
Harry and former actress Meghan are living in an £11 million mansion in Montecito after quitting as working royals in March 2020.
