Prince Harry says he once sent a fighter jet to blow up his dad

In his new memoir, the Duke of Sussex claims he directed an RAF Typhoon to target his old man. As a goof

Newsroom January 23 05:22

Back when Harry was in military training in the late 2000s, he put his skills to work on then-Prince Charles, now the King of England, sending an RAF Typhoon to track him. Harry retasked the fighter to target a nearby barn instead, pretending to blow it to smithereens.
