During the series, Prince Harry discussed not having the necessary support and understanding to deal with the trauma of losing his mother at a young age, expressing that he had suppressed his emotions until they resurfaced later in life. This revelation stirred controversy, with Piers Morgan and others pointing out what they see as contradictions in Harry's past statements.
Piers Morgan questioned Harry's claim of lacking support for his mental health issues, particularly after his tour in Afghanistan, as he had previously praised his brother, Prince William, for being instrumental in his mental health journey. In a 2013 interview, Harry had acknowledged Prince William's support, stating that his brother encouraged him to seek help.
Commentator Angela Levin also weighed in on the documentary, expressing her concerns about Prince Harry's continuous portrayal of himself as a victim. She acknowledged that many people, including Harry, have faced mental health challenges, but she questioned the prince's frequent complaints about his life.
Additionally, an amputee who was hailed as a hero by Prince Harry disagreed with his claims that the media didn't adequately cover the plight of wounded British troops in Afghanistan. Some argued that there was substantial media coverage and support, as well as high-profile charity campaigns, to aid injured soldiers and the families of those who lost their lives.
Former Royal Marine Commando Ben McBean, who had lost a limb due to a landmine explosion in Afghanistan, expressed his disagreement with Prince Harry's recent statements, emphasizing that while he had supported Harry for years, he didn't have to agree with everything the prince said. McBean highlighted the media's role in raising awareness about the war and its impact on veterans.
These criticisms arose following Prince Harry's surprise appearance at a special U.S. preview screening of the "Heart of Invictus" series, which had been in the making for over two years.In Prince Harry's recent documentary series, "Heart of Invictus," which premiered on August 30th, he delved into details about his childhood and his experiences in the armed forces.
