Caroline Flack’s former agent accuses Harry of ‘using’ her to ‘build a narrative’ in scathing rant

2023-01-09

Caroline Flack's former agent Alex Mullen, has attacked Prince Harry, accusing the Duke of Sussex of "using" the late TV star to "build a narrative" in his memoir Spare.

At one point in his book, Harry recalls the brief romance he had with Caroline in 2009, which came to an end due to the harassment she faced from the press.

Later in the book Harry discusses Caroline's death in 2020, where he places the majority of the blame on the press, writing: "Caroline Flack, a very good friend of mine, had taken her own life. By the looks of things, she couldn't bear it anymore.

"The years of constant harassment by the press had killed her. I felt awful for her family. I can't forget how much she suffered for her fatal sin of going out with me."

Harry's account of Caroline's tragic suicide, has been criticised by her agent Alex Mullen, in a scathing Instagram post, in which accuses the Prince of "parroting media reports as if they’re reality" and says that he "knows nothing" about Caroline's last days.

Alex wrote: "Perhaps he should be considering how he and Meghan Markle might have caused Queen Elizabeth II pain just as she lost her husband of 70 years and while she was on the path to her final goodbye."

In a second post, he continues his attack on the Duke of Sussex, arguing that Harry writing about Caroline when she can no longer respond is "contemptible."

He also argues that in the book Harry uses Caroline to push his narrative in regards to press intrusion into his own, and other's, private lives.

Alex writes: "He says, I paraphrase, that Caroline was pushed by the press until she could take no more. This adds gravity to his suggestion that his wife could be in danger to follow suit. Again, my opinion.

"Perhaps Meghan has suffered poor mental health, as has Harry, and despite my angry note yesterday I do have empathy.

"While I would never, for any sum, for anything at all, discuss the truth of Caroline’s final days, Harry knows nothing."

Discussing Caroline's tumultuous relationship with the press, Alex writes: "There were times when Caroline was treated in the most loathsome way by the media absolutely.

"The worst of all being an article close to her death, written and commissioned by other, ‘feminist’ women which was published despite my pleas.

"Caroline also enjoyed the most supportive coverage one could ask for and she was thankful for it. The same can be said for social media, for every furore, perhaps caused on occasion by company Meghan Markle keeps, there was love.

"For Harry to make an assumption that the press was the cause for the tragedy is a guess at most, however well that idea might further one’s agenda."
