The popular Netflix series The Crown has confirmed that the sixth season will feature a humiliating incident in Prince Harry’s life. This incident occurred in 2005, when Harry was just 20 years old and attended a costume party wearing a National Socialist Germany uniform, and a photo of him taken by The Sun with the Nazi symbol on his arm became the front page of every newspaper in the country.
It was one of the most embarrassing events in Harry’s life, according to a source at the time, and the royal family had to publicly apologize on his behalf. In his memoir, Spare, Prince Harry discussed the incident. He revealed that he asked his brother, Prince William, and sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, for guidance on what costume to wear. They suggested he wear that one, and Harry blames them for that embarrassing moment.
Prince Harry acknowledged that the costume was “one of the biggest mistakes of my life” in the third installment of the Netflix series “Harry and Meghan,” and that he felt extremely embarrassed as a result. He issued a public apology and needed to speak with a Holocaust survivor to understand the gravity of his error.
Harry will be portrayed by Luther Ford in the forthcoming season of The Crown, and Ed McVey will portray Prince William. The series will revisit Prince Harry’s humiliating incident, providing a deeper look into his public persona and the incidents for which he is deeply sorry.
