It’s not going to bring her back.”<b></b><br /><br />He and Meghan also shared their experiences as members of the royal family in an emotional documentary that angered Queen Elizabeth</a> and other senior royals.<br /><br />[ami-related id="1794073" url="https://radaronline.com/exclusives/2020/01/royal-family-plan-emergency-meeting-after-meghan-markle-prince-harry-exit/" title="Queen Demands Emergency Meeting After Meghan Markle & Prince Harry Exit From Royal Family" target="_blank" thumb="true" showsubt="false" imgsrc="https://i0.heartyhosting.com/radaronline.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Royal-family-blindsided-by-meghan-markle-prince-harry-exit-featured.jpg?fit=1100%2C618&ssl=1" format="standard" flag="" channel="44" subtitle="The Sussexes defied orders to delay their shocking announcement."]<br /><br /> <br /><br />He expressed his relationship with the media in comparison to his mother's experience and even mentioned the rift between he and his brother Prince William</a>.
