PRINCE William is poised to challenge Harry and Meghan head on if they smear the Royal Family again in their new series.
Palace officials are gearing up to mount a briefing war should their worst fears about the £88million Netflix show come true.
Insiders say the Prince is no longer willing to let wild claims about racism and other misdeeds go unanswered and from now on will be on the front foot.
Senior aides have been told to watch the six-part series like hawks and issue a swift rebuttal to any dubious claims. In a “back-off” message to his brother and wife, he has ditched the long-standing royal mantra of “never complain, never explain”.
Asked how William and Kate would respond if they felt there were inaccurate claims, a well-placed source said: “The Prince and Princesses’ team will wait to see what’s in the Netflix series before deciding what to do, but you can see the direction of travel.”
The final straw came after Harry was accused of attempts to “sabotage” the Prince and Princess of Wales’s high-profile visit to the USA.
His decision to issue a trailer to the show on the second day of their tour of Boston was seen as a “declaration of war”.
