Prince Harry has been urged to “man up” and support his brother William during the ongoing BBC inquiry.
William has welcomed an inquiry into whether journalist Martin Bashir created false documents in order to persuade their mother, Princess Diana, to appear on Panorama when she was alive.
And now Harry has been urged to put their differences to one side and support his older brother.

“It is odd he hasn’t spoken out about the BBC and Bashir case as he has been speaking out a lot about other things recently.”
