However, the book reveals that William felt "betrayed and severely let down" after the journalist participated in the documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey, in which both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle spoke about their struggles within the Royal Family. _ The ITV documentary became a turning point in the brothers' relationship, as Prince Harry spoke publicly for the first time about reports of a rift, admitting they had "good days" and "bad days." Meanwhile, Meghan Markle described the challenges of balancing motherhood with relentless media scrutiny, noting that few people had asked if she was truly okay. _ William and Catherine: The Intimate Inside Story reveals that, after filming the documentary, Tom Bradby reached out to Prince William to express concern for Prince Harry's mental health. A source familiar with the conversation said William was furious, believing the journalist had sided with Harry.
The source said, "William felt betrayed and severely let down. He considered Tom a friend, they had always got on and Harry was close to him too, but [William] never thought [Bradby] would take a side like he did."The book notes that one of William's main frustrations was Bradby's reluctance to question Harry or Meghan Markle about what was happening within the royal household, with sources adding that most of the family had focused on making the Duchess of Sussex feel welcomed.
The source continued, "Tom knew full well what Meghan was accused of and chose not to raise it in the documentary, while she ran roughshod over the family. As far as [William] was concerned, the friendship was over there and then."
