Prince Harry in media glare again
Shyam Bhatia in London | March 05, 2004*16:51 IST

Only days after he was accused of spending too much time cavorting
with girls in London's top night clubs, Britain's Prince Harry is once
again in the news.

But this time it is his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, who is
to blame for thrusting him back into the glare of unwanted publicity.

In hitherto secret* tapes obtained and broadcast last night by US TV
network, NBC, Diana tells how her husband, Prince Charles,*had been
disappointed that their second child, Harry, was a boy and that he
hated his red hair.

This renewed focus on Harry from beyond the grave is described by
royal insiders in London*as negative and destructive and*potentially
damaging for the 19-year-old prince.

Both Harry and his brother William, who will one day inherit the
British throne, have managed to secure a warm relationship with their
father, despite the side effects of their parents' divorce and Diana's
subsequent death in a Paris car crash.
But Harry's relationship with his father could now come under renewed
strain after the revelation that he was an unwanted child, at least as
far as his father was concerned.

Hints*of Harry's personality problems, and how these could be the
consequence of his parents' broken marriage, have been seeping into
the British media for several months.

Two years ago, when he was 17,* there were stories about how he was
the focus of* 'wild' parties at his father's country home outside
London, freely mixing with drug users, hard drinkers and their girl
friends.

After Harry subsequently admitted smoking cannabis and imbibing
alcohol, he was sent to a drugs rehabilitation centre for a day.

But his behaviour continues to cause problems. Last week he was
described by a London newspaper columnist as a "thoroughly horrible
young man."
Shortly afterwards royal courtiers permitted journalists to take
pictures of Harry as he toured the AIDS-ravaged African country of
Lesotho.

One of Harry's problems is the enormous sums of money he has inherited
from his mother. When Diana died she left Harry most of her estate,
valued at more than £20 million, arguing that it was necessary to
balance the lion's share of privileges that her older son would
inherit as he was destined to be the king.

Diana's bitter-sweet legacy of cash and tell-all secret video tapes is
a cross that Harry will have to carry for the rest of his life.
