Prince Harry, who was praised by mental health campaigners after he spoken openly about dealing with grief following his mother's death in a podcast interview with The Telegraph last week, elaborated on the topic. "I always thought to myself, what's the point of bringing up the past, what's the point of bringing up something that's only going to make you sad? It ain't going to change it, it ain't going to bring it back," he said. "And when you start thinking like that it can be really damaging."
I do think it's incredible how strong and how you've been able to cope really.
And I put that down to your really early childhood experience.
But also the relationship that you've got. You're amazingly close.
Most of the time.
Some families sadly aren't as lucky as you guys have been in being able to share things.
But we have been brought closer because of the circumstances as well. That's the thing.
You are uniquely bonded because of what we've been through.
But even Harry and I, over the years, have not talked enough about our mother.
Never enough. His doing this campaign made you realise that?
Yeah, I think so.
I always thought to myself, what's the point of bringing up the past?
What's the point of bringing up something that's only going to make you sad?
It ain't going to change her. It ain't going to bring her back.
And when you start thinking like that, it can be really damaging.
He always said to me, you've got to sit down and think about those memories.
But for me, it was like, I don't want to think about it.
But I think what must happen with us and must happen with others as well,
is that you have to prioritise your mental health.
You have to say to yourself, at some point, because it's very easy to run away from it.
To walk away from it and avoid it the whole time.
Someone has to take the lead and has to be brave enough to force that conversation.
