On Sunday, the paper gave an expression of remorse to the Duke of Sussex over an article published on October 25, 2020, expressing that he had overlooked a letter from the former Army head Lord Dannatt, speaking to him to help the military community in Britain.
This tabloid also claimed that the duke had not been in contact with the Royal Marines since the time he abdicates from his job as Captain General in March following his takeoff from the British royal family with spouse Meghan Markle, according to TheNews.
Following the article, Harry had recorded a claim against the publisher of the newspaper.
Therefore, the assertion of statement of apology by the Mail on Sunday was published in the paper’s Clarifications and corrections’ page, reading.
“An article on 25 October 2020 reported that Prince Harry had been accused by a top general of turning his back on the Royal Marines since withdrawing from his military roles in March and that, in an apparent snub to the Armed Forces, he had failed to reply to a letter from Lord Dannatt, a former Chief of the General Staff,” it read.
“We now understand that Harry has been in contact in a private capacity with individuals in the military including in the Royal Marines to offer informal support since March and that whilst he did not initially receive the letter from Lord Dannatt referred to in the article due to administrative issues he has since replied on becoming aware of it,” it added.
“We apologise to Prince Harry and have made a donation to the Invictus Games Foundation,” it concluded.
