Prince William said Harry was being ‘brainwashed by his therapist’ and ‘wasn’t well’ sparking furious row, book claims

PRINCE William blasted Harry for being “brainwashed” by his therapist, the Duke of Sussex’s explosive memoir claims.

The outburst came during a row over text where William allegedly asked to come along to a session, fearing what Harry was being exposed to.

Writing in his tell-all memoir Spare, Harry, 39, recalls: “He said I wasn’t well. He said again that I needed help.

“I reminded him that I was doing therapy. In fact, he’d recently told me he wanted to accompany me to a session because he suspected I was being “brainwashed.”

In a bid to repair their damaged relationship, the Duke of Sussex claims he invited William to a joint therapy session.

He told William, 40, it would “be good for you. Good for us”, but the Prince of Wales turned down the invite.

Harry goes as far as to claim that during the “72 hour” October 2019 text row – which came after Harry choked up at the WellChild awards – his brother believed “I was unwell” during Megxit.

William, his brother alleges, believed Harry’s ill health “meant I was unwise” with the final decision to leave the Royal Family.

Discussing the back and forth with his brother, Harry added: “After months of therapy, after working hard to become more aware, more independent, I was a stranger to my older brother.

“He could no longer relate to me-tolerate me. Or maybe it was just the stress of the last few years, the last few decades,
finally pouring out.”

The Duke of Sussex goes on to say he saved the texts and occasionally reads them back thinking: “How did we get there?”

The incendiary allegations are likely to hit William, a vocal advocate for mental health awareness, hard.

The Prince of Wales launched Heads Together in 2016 alongside Kate, Meghan and Harry, which unified eight mental health charities.

‘BURNING ANGER’

It comes as William is “burning with anger” about bombshell Spare.

“He’s handling it so well on the outside — inside he’s burning”, a friend told The Celeb Reportday Times.

The Prince of Wales reportedly feels immense sadness at Harry’s relentless salvos, such as being labelled his brother’s “arch-nemesis”.

But William is believed to be taking punches from his raging brother in order to protect his family and country.

Other explosive allegations in Spare reveal William threw Harry to the ground in a fit of rage in 2019 – smashing a dog bowl which cut up Harry’s back.

A raft of other claims have turned the crosshairs onto William’s wife, Kate.

In one, Harry sensationally claimed Will and Kate encouraged him to wear his notorious Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party, according to a leaked excerpt from his book.

He says the now Prince and Princess of Wales “howled with laughter” when they saw him dressed up in the offensive outfit for the party in 2005.

And he says Meghan and Kate had a monstrous fallout in the lead up to the royal wedding in 2018 after Meghan said the Princess of Wales had a “baby brain”.

One pal told The Celeb Reportday Times how surprised they were at Harry’s allegations – given the amount of “s***” his mates have on him that could make it into the mainstream.

“There’s so much stuff over the years that Harry has rung friends up about and said, ‘throw away that photo, promise you won’t speak about this'”, they stressed.

Another friend added: “William will be going through a range of emotions — anger, concern and worry — not just for his family but how all this is going to affect the institution.

“But he is staunchly protective of his own family, and he’s not just going to roll over.”

A friend of the Royal Family added: “William is tough, the family can play the long game in the way Harry and Meghan can’t.

“That’s a very powerful counterpoint to all this.”

Spare, out January 10, reveals Harry has taken cocaine, cannabis, magic mushrooms and even used laughing gas while Meghan was giving birth.
