Britain’s Prince Harry has given a series of television interviews ahead of the official release of his memoir “Spare” in which he gives intimate personal details and reveals discord and conflict within the British royal family.

Here are some of the quotes from an interview with Tom Bradby of Britain’s ITV aired on Sunday:

Why do the book?

“There was a motto, a family motto of ‘never complain, never explain’. And what people have realized now … is that was just a motto. There was a lot of complaining and there was a lot of explaining and it continues now.

“If it had stopped, by the point that I fled my home country with my wife and my son fearing for our lives, then maybe this would’ve turned out differently.”

On his mother’s death in Paris car crash:

“There’s a lot of things that are unexplained. But I’ve been asked before whether I want to open up another inquiry. I don’t really see the point at this stage.”

On his relationship with his family and the press:

“Certain members have decided to get in the bed with the devil (tabloid press) … to rehabilitate their image.

“But the moment that that rehabilitation comes at the detriment of others, me, other members of my family, then that’s where I draw the line.”

On Charles’s second wife Camilla, the Queen Consort:

“William and I wanted our father to be happy and he seemed to be very, very happy with her. We asked him not to get married. He chose to. That’s his decision. But the two of them were and remain very happy together.”

Washington D.C. has been under pressure to ban the popular Chinese-owned social media app TikTok.

TikTok users could soon find that the popular social media service is either under new ownership or could be outright banned in the U.S.

Calls are growing louder from many lawmakers and national security hawks to ban TikTok, over fears the app could censure content, influence users, and give Americans’ personal data to Beijing.

But the Chinese tech company, ByteDance—which owns TikTok— denies the allegations.
