Prince Harry’s trauma specialist talks ‘cash grab’ chat and ‘hates it all’

Prince Harry’s Interviews Reportedly Regrets Interviewing Royals, Broadly.

Gabor Mate himself broke his silence on the whole thing during an appearance on Steven Bartlett’s The Diary of a CEO podcast.

There he addressed the backlash he received after the conversation and said: “There’s been an incredible reaction on social media, which has been, for the most part, so negative and so demeaning and so dismissive and so distorted.”

“I barely know how to talk about it. I thought at that age I would know better, but you know what, it really got to me,” she admitted.

All this reportedly left him suffering in silence, in a “really negative state of mind” so much so that he ended up “losing himself”

“I was in a dark place, I’m human like the rest,” he continued. “It’s so hard to ask for help, but I did,” he also admitted during his chat.

He even went so far as to criticize the media for taking his words out of context and calling him things like “strict, domineering and pain mongering”.

He also touched on the need to charge people to enter this event and said, “I felt the whole time that I didn’t have to agree with the way they set it up. Because the way it was set up, in order to watch it, people had to buy a copy of Harry’s book.”

“I thought, ‘It’s not fair, four million people have already bought the book. Why can’t they see this interview?’ They had to buy another copy. “

“I thought it should be a free public service from two people having a very interesting conversation.”

“But out of sheer opportunism I agreed to it. I didn’t follow my instincts. I agreed to something I didn’t like.”

“It’s not that I didn’t like the idea of ​​talking to him, I didn’t like the idea of ​​putting myself behind a paywall. I lost myself just by agreeing to do it.”

“I don’t care if people agree with me or if they refute my ideas, but I want them to see me and what I say for real, not some distorted version created by their own mind.”

“Well, if someone says [something bad about me]. I don’t live in the press. I don’t live in someone else’s mind. Here I am. Let them think and say what they want,” he also added before signing off.
