Prince Harry has spoken out about how he wants his “father and brother back” in clips released from a new interview.
ITV is due to air a new TV interview with Prince Harry this weekend, but before it hits our screens and the nation tunes in to watch, the broadcaster has released a 20-second trailer, where the former senior member of the Royal Family speaks openly about his wishes to “get my father back” and “have my brother back”.
The Duke of Sussex is also shown saying that he “wants a family, not an institution” in the trailer for the interview – which is titled Harry: The Interview.
During the interview, which is due to air this Sunday 8 January at 9pm, Prince Harry will speak to ITV journalist Tom Bradby about his personal relationships, and the death of his mother, Princess Diana, before he looks ahead at his future.
The interview is due to air two days before Harry’s autobiography, Spare, is published on 10 January.

This interview – which is due for release on the same day as another interview with Anderson Cooper on 60 Minutes in the US – comes after audiences globally have recently been captivated over the release of the new six-part Netflix documentary series, Harry & Meghan, which aired throughout December.

It also, of course, comes after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex famously announced that they would be stepping down as senior members of the Royal Family on 8 January 2020 – exactly three years prior to the date of the new interview airing.

In the 20-second interview trailer released this morning, Prince Harry speaks on how he believes “silence is betrayal” in reference to the alleged failure of Buckingham Palace to defend him and his wife before they stepped down as senior royals and moved to the US.
He also claimed that, since then, his family have “shown absolutely no willingness to reconcile”.
Adding that he feels it “never needed to be this way”, Harry said he believes his family “feel as though it is better to keep us somehow as the villains”.

“I would like to get my father back. I would like to get my brother back,” he said.

The trailer from the interview also shows Duke of Sussex speaking on how he has tried to keep his conversations with the Royal Family private, but has been forced to make his concerns public in a number of ways in order to combat stories in the tabloid press.
“Every single time I’ve tried to do it privately, there have been briefings and leakings and planting of stories against me and my wife,” he explained.
“They will feed or have a conversation with the correspondent, and that correspondent will literally be spoon-fed information and write the story, and at the bottom of it they will say that they’ve reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment – but the whole story is Buckingham Palace commenting.”
“You know, the family motto is ‘never complain, never explain’, but it’s just a motto,” he concludes.

A popular Manc streetwear brand is hosting a big festival to mark their fifth birthday
Danny Jones
Popular Manchester streetwear and footwear brand, CLINTS Inc., is hosting its first-ever festival to mark five whole years in fashion – and it’s going to be big.
The highly sought-after clothing and sneaker make started out from a bedroom in Moston and is now a premium label in British urban, skating, UK grime and hip-hop culture, having been worn by many famous names and welcoming even more through the door of their Deansgate shop.
Located in the ABC Buildings on Quay Street next to Spinningfields, the flagship CLINTS store opened back in 2022 and is much more than a place to buy some new drip: it’s a place that showcases art, music, and a whole sub-sect of shopping beyond just skate silhouettes and trendy trainers.
As hack as it might sound to some, wearing this brand comes along with immersing yourself in the wider style and scene; the very same scene being celebrated in tandem with their fifth birthday.
Not to tease you more than the company already has, but as you can see, details are scarce.
There is no lineup or even location for this festival… only a date.
CLINTS Fest (the inaugural one, at that) will take place on Saturday, 6 September – presumably at or around the 21-23 Quay Street site, but who knows?
Fans of the brand can sign up for the mailing list for the latest details, and pre-sale tickets are also available now, with a couple of clicks on the website revealing that the event is set to start at 12 noon and wrap up around 10:30pm.

While you can expect the festival to be packed to the rafters with die-hard followers of all things CLINTS and streetwear, they’re not the only local indie holding a special one-off this month.
In fact, this weekend, a fellow trainer specialist who is still just starting out life in the fashion game but is already making waves reminiscent of their contemporaries.
Here’s hoping this is just the beginning of the journey and they’re the next Manc brand to become a national success story.

Alex Sanderson summons Rudyard Kipling as Sale Sharks scrape into the semi-finals
Danny Jones
Director of Rugby Alex Sanderson referenced the famous Rudyard Kipling after Sale Sharks managed to book their place in the playoffs of this year’s Gallagher Premiership following a nail-biter of a fixture against Exeter Chiefs.
The Sharks sealed their spot in the semi-finals with a 30-26 win over the Chiefs on Saturday night, with a trio of tries, a singular pen and calmness when it came to conversions proving just enough to make it to full time.
Speaking on the narrow score at Sandy Park, Sanderson himself applauded that same composure during his post-match duties, casually quoting Kipling ahead of the next big game.
Writing on social media after nerves had just about settled, the club simply said: “Apologies for raising the heart rate, Sharks Family… but Saturday we go again.”
Beginning with an expression of that same defiant spirit that has seen them across the line on so many occasions, the 45-year-old told TNT Sports, “We got another Monday in us.”
The Sale Sharks coach went on to add: “So if you can keep your head, when everybody else is losing theirs – I think that’s the old Rudyard Kipling poem – you’re in such a better place on the back of that, knowing what we can fix from the Leicester game and what we can do better from today.”
It’s not every day you hear sportsmen calling up the poetic words of the beloved British-India writer, but it certainly impressed plenty of supporters, though Sanderson has always been popular among fans for his candour and charisma in interviews.
Ultimately, it was Rekeiti Ma’asi-White, Bevan Rodd, Luke Cowan-Dickie and George Ford that the Greater Manchester outfit had to thank for the electrifying finish
You can see how much it meant, clear as day…
Not done yet…
Thank you for your support Sharks Family, it’s truly appreciated!
Sale Sharks will now take on Leicester Tigers (who the local side finished just behind in third place following the result against the Chiefs) in the Premiership semis as they look to get revenge for previous painful meetings
