The controversial conservative made the comments after the first episode of a bombshell new interview where Harry detailed his and his wife’s mental health struggles.

“I cannot say enough that Prince Harry is in an emotionally abusive relationship,” Owens wrote on Twitter.
“Meghan has groomed him to believe that she is his mother reincarnate—only this time, he has a chance to save her. It is so disturbing to watch. Please stop putting cameras on him.”
The shocking comments received backlash on social media, with someone dubbing Owens’ “obsession with Meghan” as “disturbing to watch.”
Another person claimed “you’re jealous of Meghan,” with someone joking the Duchess of Sussex is “living rent free in your head.”
Prince Harry spoke about:
- Prince Charles not ‘making it right’ for him and brother Prince William after their mother’s car crash death in 1997
- Turning to drinking and drugs in his late 20s, admitting: ‘I would drink a week’s worth in one day’
- The public being allowed to mourn his mother Princess Diana, while he was not
- Harry claimed critics ‘won’t stop until Meghan dies’
- How Meghan resisted suicidal thoughts because she knew it would be ‘unfair’ for Harry to lose another woman in his life
- How some of Archie’s first words were “grandma Diana”
- Harry has said he was “afraid” to return to the UK for Prince Philip’s funeral but “used coping skills from therapy to get through”
- The duke claimed The Firm tried to “smear” Meghan in a shocking blast at the Queen
- Meghan told Harry to get therapy after he “acted like a 12-year-old” in a huge row
Prince Harry accused his family of showing “total neglect” for his mental health woes and claims dad Charles made him “suffer” in the documentary.
In the debut episode of The Me They Can’t See, Harry opens up about his struggles with his mental well-being and the trauma that haunts him after the death of mother Princess Diana.
And in stunningly candid moments, Harry, 36, launches blistering attacks on his close relatives – and even admits to past drug use and booze binges to escape from his anguish.
He reveals that he’s been in therapy for “four or five years” – while also opening up about turning his back on Britain and his family to “break the cycle” of grief being passed down the generations.
Harry also spoke out about his wife Meghan’s mental health struggles, saying: “Meghan decided to share with me the suicidal thoughts and the practicalities of how she was going to end her life.
“The scariest thing for her was her clarity of thought.”
The Duke blasts his own dad Charles – saying he did little to help him through his struggles.
He says: “My father used to say to me when I was younger, he used to say to both William and I, ‘Well, it was like that for me so it’s going to be like that for you.’
“That doesn’t make sense. Just because you suffered, that doesn’t mean your kids have to suffer. Actually quite the opposite.
“If you suffered, do everything you can to make sure that whatever negative experiences you had, you can make it right for your kids.”
“We chose to put our mental health first. That’s what we’re doing. And that’s what we will continue to do. Isn’t this all about breaking the cycle?
“Isn’t it all about making sure that history doesn’t repeat itself? That whatever pain and suffering has happened to you, that you don’t pass on.”
It is the second time that Harry has made dark claims about the Royal family – following on from his interview alongside Meghan with Oprah.
During the interview, Meghan suggested that members of the Royal Family were concerned “how dark” her son Archie would be.
Owens also launched a scathing attack on Markle following these comments, saying it was normal for family members to wonder aloud how dark their baby son would turn out.
The author wrote in the Mail on Sunday: “It came from not only my sisters, who are fully black and darker than I am, but also from my husband and from me as we daydreamed about what our beautiful boy would look like.
“‘What color do you think his eyes will be?’ we’d enquire aloud. ‘Will his hair be darker or lighter?’
“So hearing Meghan Markle frame the questions about her son’s skin color – however innocently intended – as racist ‘concern’ rather than harmless imagination made my skin crawl.”
