He added to ABC: "She had a reputation to rehabilitate."

The Prince said he hadn't spoken to his step-mother "for a long time" but added he doesn't see her as "evil".

Harry explained: "I love every member of my family... so when I see her we're perfectly pleasant with each other.

"She's my step-mother. I don't see her as an evil step-mother, I think she's someone who married into this institution and done everything she can to improve her own reputation, her own image, for her own sake."

Elsewhere in the chat, Harry described his sibling the Prince of Wales as his "beloved brother and arch nemesis".

He explained: "There has always been this competition between us, weirdly."

Harry added of the ongoing rift between himself, his brother and himself and his father King Charles: "But what people don't know is the efforts that I've gone to to resolve this privately, both with my brother and with my father."

Despite the recent explosive claims in leaked extracts of his book and recent TV interviews, the Duke of Sussex said he hoped he and the royals "can reconcile".

He explained: "I thought about it long and hard, and as far as I see it the divide couldn't be greater before this book."

He said he hoped that "me and my family can reconcile", but added the first thing "is accountability".

"And if that doesn't happen, then that's very sad," he said.
