Harry jumped in to state: “He didn’t come to me, he went to somebody else.”
“Okay, but ‘We’re going to release it unless you give us a tell all interview or whatever it was,” Bradby continued.
“They wanted, and you say you called their bluff, but are you really saying that third in the line to the throne or whatever you were, that you taking a Class A drug is not a matter of public interest?
“I think that’s a question people will have. Do you accept that is a matter of public interest for the press?”
“I think what’s a matter of public interest is the relationship between the institution with the tabloid media,” Harry hit back.
“That to me, is more public interest than anything else. But myself itself has been put through a blender as such.
“So, I think the lines have been blurred so much that public interest is more about the wellbeing of society.”
Harry: The Interview is available to watch on ITVX now.
