Prince Harry spoke about his family in his exclusive interview with Today. However, a report claimed that he managed to snub them multiple times during the whole interview.

Prince Harry Snubbed The Queen Twice

The Duke of Sussex spoke about his time away from Queen Elizabeth II and the royal family. He told U.S journalist Hoda Kotb from NBC News that he missed them during a chat while in the Netherlands for the Invictus Games. However, Mirror claimed that he snubbed them five times.

The Duke of Sussex made the first snubbed when asked whether he would join the royal family at the Queen's Jubilee celebration by saying he "didn't know" citing "lots of issues with security and everything else."

Prince Harry mentioned his daughter Lilibet not meeting his grandmother. However, the outlet noted that he made the second snub when he noted that he wasn't sure if Lilibet, who was named after the Queen, would meet her namesake soon.

Prince Harry said he was "trying to do everything to make sure my kids can meet her." However, as stated, he wasn't sure about flying to the U.K. for the Queen's Jubilee Platinum celebration.

Prince Harry Shades The Royal Family Three Times

As Prince Harry's interview continue, the outlet noted that he seemed to shade the members of the firm when he talked about his new home and relationship with the Queen.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex settled in California after they stepped back from their royal duties. And at this point in his life, Meghan Markle's husband considers the U.S.A. as his home.

"Home for me now, for the time being, is in the States and it feels that way as well," he said making the third snub, according to the outlet.

Prince Harry also raised eyebrows when he mentioned his "special relationship" with the Queen, suggesting that the monarch is more open to him and Markle than the other members of the family. Mirror said it was Prince Harry's fourth snub to the royal family.

During the interview, Prince Harry said he made the Queen laugh. He added that the 96-year-old royal could open up with him as it gives her peace and stressed that they have a "really special relationship."

"We talk about things that she can't talk about with anybody else, so that is always a nice peace to her,” he said.

Prince Harry's final snub was when he seemingly questioned the Queen's company. He said that wanted to protect the queen and make sure that "the right people" is around her. Several royal experts found his remark a "gross insult" and a sign of "arrogance."

"The protection most needed by the Queen is from exploitation such as this by Prince Harry," Daily Mail columnist Richard Eden tweeted

"In 15 mins Harry felt he made sure the Queen is 'protected and has the right people around her,'" royal biographer Angela Levin added. "His comment on US TV is a gross insult to all the royal family, the royal doctors and all the aides around HM. His arrogance knows no bounds.
