Harry admits in the book that he is still in pain over the angry texts he received from William in 2019. The argument began when William suggested that Harry's therapist was brainwashing him.
The exchange turned into a 72-hour argument, with the brothers sending angry texts back and forth all day and late into the night.
Harry writes that they had never fought like that over text before and that they were angry and miles apart, as if they were speaking different languages.
Harry feared that his worst fear was coming true: after months of therapy, he was becoming a stranger to his older brother.
He adds that William could no longer relate to him or tolerate him, or perhaps it was the stress of the last few years or decades finally pouring out. Harry saved the texts and still reads them sometimes with sadness and confusion, wondering how they ever got there.
