Prince William was wary about Prince Harry slamming the press about Meghan Markle for this reason: book
Fox News
The claim was made by bestselling author Christopher Andersen in his new book titled “Brothers and Wives: Inside the Private Lives of William, Kate, Harry, and Meghan.”
In it, Andersen described how William, who is second in line to the throne, was hesitant about his younger brother telling the press to back off in 2016 when his relationship with the American actress became public. In it, the 37-year-old said he was worried about the star’s safety since she has been subjected to a "wave of abuse and harassment."
"It’s interesting to see the differences between the way William and Harry handle the press," Andersen told Fox News. "Harry was the one who went to William during his six-week breakup with Kate Middleton [before they married] and said, ‘What are you doing? Are you crazy? Go back.’ And he did. It took 10 years, but Kate landed her prince and they are a great match."
