Prince Harry supported by Beatrice and Eugenie after years of being treated like the palace 'joker'
Prince Harry's voice was 'rarely heard' in the Royal Family, according to an inside source
Prince Harry's highly-anticipated memoir reportedly has the support of Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, who feel their older cousin was ostracized from the Royal Family for years.
- Prince Harry's decision to publish an 'accurate and wholly truthful' memoir is reportedly supported by Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
- The Duke of Sussex's cousins are said to sympathize with him, after being ignored and treated like a 'joker' in the Royal Family for years.

The Duke of Sussex continues to be supported by his cousins, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, who reportedly sympathize with his strained relationship with the Royal Family.
It was revealed last week that Prince Harry is to release an "accurate and wholly truthful" memoir, in which he's expected to divulge a number of insights into the monarchial world that led to his controversial withdrawal as a senior royal.
While the highly-anticipated book is likely to raise some concerns inside the walls of Buckingham Palace, it apparently has the full approval of Beatrice and Eugenie. The duke's younger cousins believe that Harry's recent comments about the Royal Family are the result of his opinions being ignored and dismissed over the years, according to an anonymous insider.
"They believe Harry’s outspoken remarks may have been triggered because previously his voice and opinions were rarely heard within the Royal Family," the source told the Mail on Sunday.
The insider also said that Prince Harry was treated as the family's "resident joker" and that "eyes would roll" when he would speak about national or political affairs.
Eugenie and Beatrice's solidarity with the Duke shouldn't come as a surprise to royal fans. The lookalike daughters of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson have always been close with Harry, maintaining contact even after his shocking emigration to the US with Meghan Markle in early 2020. The couple even allowed Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank to move into their newly-renovated home of Frogmore Cottage after they left to start their new stateside life.

While Eugenie typically keeps hush about her family's private business, she did offer a comment about the Duchess's authorial debut back in May. After refusing to give Meghan unsolicited advice, other than to "be happy", she called the release of her children's book, The Bench, "wonderful." Eugenie also has experience with children's literature, having narrated a book for kids with dyslexia back in March.
