It was announced last month that Prince Harry, in collaboration with this publisher, Penguin Random House, would take part in an international “livestream event” with controversial physiologist, Dr. Gabor Maté. All together now: —DEEP SIGH—

  • He claimed he wrote his book, not for the $20 million dollar pay-off, but as an “act of service”

  • Copped to “Drugs helping his mental health.” Cocaine “didn’t do much for him” but “marijuana did”

  • Used psychedelics like ayahuasca “recreationally”

  • Of Meghan, he said “I was stuck in this world and she was from a different world and helped draw me out of that.”

  • When talking about his father not embracing him enough as a child, the doctor said: “Even animals hug their young.”

Taking a bird’s eye view of this: This is so fascinating. Three years ago, this interview would have gotten wall-to-wall breaking news coverage for weeks. The fifth-in-line to the throne talking about abusing drugs like cocaine and taking psychedelics recreationally? “Trauma” from his family feeling like a boy in a bubble. Now? Reactions range from a roll of the eyes to people pleading for him to just stop talking. The public is growing weary of “I really struggled” Harry. Unfortunately for us, Harry also said that the more people criticize, the more he wants to talk and explain.
