The Duke of Sussex wants to repair his difficult relationship with his father and brother, he has said.
Speaking to GQ magazine in New York, Prince Harry said of his complicated relationship with William and King Charles that from a family perspective it was a "massively relatable issue for so many people".
"There's sibling disagreements, there's broken relationships between kids and their parents, kids and one parent," he said.
"That continues to come up with me the whole time by people that I speak to, so I know how relatable it is.
"That's partly probably why there's so much fascination … People maybe look at us and go: 'How are you going to work it out?' Then: 'Maybe how I see you're going to work it out, maybe that will help me work my stuff out.'
"Some people don't want it to work out. I want it to work out. With everything else that's going on in the world, the most important thing is to reconcile. That's the key point."
Asked if he thought he could repair "this wound", Harry said: "Yeah, of course … look, scars stick around forever but … certainly letting go of the past, that's something that I would encourage everybody to do.
"If there's certain things from the past that's still affecting your everyday, that's harder to let go of.
"But yeah, for me, there's enough drama in the world and enough drama in people's lives than to continue with issues with family."
A spokesperson for the Sussexes later clarified that Harry's comments were not intended as a swipe at Prince William or directed at any of the royal family in any way, but were made in a general context.
The interview, conducted last month, was released on the GQ website as the royal family welcomed the Sultan of Oman to Windsor Castle for a state visit.
Speaking of moving his family to the UK, Harry said they returned for "opportunities, for the family, being able to put the kids in British schools meant a lot to me".
He added: "I didn't know how important it was to me. I always thought it was going to be something I would try and do or that we would try and do, but now they've been in school for two weeks they're loving it and it's just giving them a whole different experience. Don't worry, I'm not criticising American schools."
He added it was "so important" for his children, Archie, seven, and Lilibet, five, to have two "completely different cultural experiences".
Harry, who spoke about dealing with grief and trauma after his mother's death, said he hoped sharing his experience would help others rather than garnering public sympathy for himself.
"I certainly don't want any sympathy. Why? Because I'm a prince. I've got a support network around me, I've done different forms of therapy, and I put in the work. I wonder where I would be if I didn't – it could be a very different situation," he said.
