There’s a lot more to it than that. Diana also had an eating disorder and attempted suicide multiple times because of her husband’s affair with Camilla, and she also hated being royal. Harry’s father even went on to say that he only married Diana because he felt pressure to marry quickly, and then there’s the theory that Diana was murdered by the royals following her divorce from Charles.

Harry was exposed to all of that and let’s be honest, if this was a fiction novel people probably wouldn’t think its boring at all. It would a contemporary familial drama with a love story and a romance. Like, yeah, Harry is out of touch with reality but that’s not 100% his fault — being royal is the only life he knows.

To not be sorry for him is classist and indicates a lack of empathy.
