“[William] called me another name, then came at me. It all happened so fast. So very fast. He grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor. I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me. I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out,” Harry wrote in Spare.

He also claimed that William urged him to fight back but he refused to do so. Harry also says he informed Markle about the attack after she saw the “scrapes and bruises” on his back. However, even after seeing the bruises, he said Markle “wasn’t that surprised, and wasn’t all that angry.”
