A royal biographer feels “perplexed” by the claims made in Prince Harry’s memoir.

Jonathan Dimbleby has been baffled by the 38-year-old prince’s ‘Spare’ memoir, observing that it accommodates revelations that you simply would possibly to see from a “B-list celebrity”.

He stated: “I am perplexed. I am at a loss. He is clearly a very troubled man.

“I’m involved by the way that everybody makes use of the phrase revelations. Yes, there are clearly revelations about how he misplaced his virginity, taking medicine, and the way many individuals he feels he may need shot down from his Apache. But these are the sort of revelations, partially, that you’d anticipate, I suppose, from a B-list celeb.”

Jonathan, 78, also thinks King Charles will be “extraordinarily pained” by the claims made in the memoir.

He told BBC Radio 4’s ‘Today’ programme: “I can solely think about he’s extraordinarily pained, very annoyed and can be very anxious to convey it to an finish.”

In his memoir, Harry claims that he killed 25 people while serving in Afghanistan.

The prince – who undertook two tours of the country – explained that he killed 25 Taliban fighters during his time in the British army.

He wrote: “It appeared to me important to not be afraid of that quantity [of people killed]. So my quantity is 25.

“It’s not a number that fills me with satisfaction, but nor does it embarrass me.”

Harry even likened the Taliban fighters to “chess pieces removed from the board”.

Despite this, the prince really relished his time within the British navy because it allowed him to flee the dramas of royal life.

He stated: “I was no longer Prince Harry, I was Second Lieutenant Wales of the Blues and Royals, second oldest regiment of the British army.”
