Prince Harry has come under fire for his ‘ill-judged’ allegations about murdering Taliban terrorists in his frank book, Spare, according to Princess Diana‘s old bodyguard, Ken Wharfe.

Speaking to Camilla Tominey of GB News, Mr. Wharfe described the Duke’s revelation as alarming and characterized the assertions as ill-advised.

“In the last two or three days a number of leading military personnel have condemned his actions, and I think it was incredibly foolish of him,” Dian’s former bodyguard added.

He went on: “Let’s be quite frank about this. We’ve already had statements from Afghanistan. And you only have to look at what happened to Salman Rushdie recently – nobody anticipated an attack like that.”

As a result of an assault on stage during a literary event in western New York in August, Salman Rushdie reportedly lost the sight in one eye and the use of a hand.

Wharfe continued: “So, I think Harry and his security, wherever that might be, seriously need to reassess his own security – both to himself and to his family because we live in very dangerous times. To make that statement was an incredibly bad call.”

Ken Wharfe “Which brings us on the question of: ‘Why didn’t someone really sort of advise him and go through this’. Why didn’t they identify the areas that were likely to cause the problem? That clearly didn’t happen.”

The Duke’s book contains revelations that horrified Princess Diana’s former bodyguard, who stated: “There are serious implications of that statement about the Taliban, that seem to me to have now dominated the world’s media, and rightly so. It’s put aside, you know, the fight in Nottingham Cottage.
