London, Europe Brief News – Prince Harry affirmed that he doesn’t see himself ever returning to his former role within the royal family.
In an interview with the CNN anchor, Harry, 38, quickly shot down the idea when Cooper asked him the question.
“Can you see a day when you would return as a full-time member of the royal family?” Cooper, 55, asked Harry in a clip shared on Twitter by 60 Minutes on Monday.
“No,” Prince Harry replied. The footage continued to roll of Harry’s talk with the 18-time Emmy Award-winning journalist, as a voice-over said the “revealing” special will air Sunday on CBS and stream on Paramount+.
Prince Harry’s upcoming conversation with Cooper will be his first U.S. television interview to discuss Spare, his highly anticipated memoir out Jan. 10.
Harry’s interview with the Anderson Cooper 360 host is one of two he sat for to promote the book, which publisher Penguin Random House previously said would be a reflection on grief, love and healing.
For Spare’s U.K. promotion, the Duke of Sussex gave an interview to Tom Bradby of ITV, who previously spoke with Harry and Meghan Markle for the documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey in 2019.
ITV and CBS both announced their upcoming interviews with Prince Harry on Monday, sharing snippets of the sit-downs to social media.
The footage released shows Harry discussing his and Meghan’s decision to step back as senior working royals, why he believes “silence is betrayal” and his thoughts on reconciliation with his father King Charles and brother Prince William.
