GMB's Kate Garraway takes a swipe at Prince Harry with dig about 'excuses'

GOOD Morning Britain's Kate Garraway took a swipe at Prince Harry today after he complained about feeling burned out.

Discussing the upcoming Baftas, Kate, Ben Shephard and Richard Arnold suggested the introduction of a new category to honour outstanding talent such as Olivia Colman and Dame Judi Dench.


Kate then referenced Harry's complaints about the hectic pace of life and suggested he and wife Meghan Markle thought they were too good for awards.

She said: "Well there's another excuse – from Prince Harry this morning we've got 'we're too busy on our inner work to do the outer work', and we're too talented for awards, Richard!"

Richard quipped: "I've had no inner work for quite some time."

It comes after Harry admitted he's "always kicking himself" during "hard days" – but visualises positive situations as he's "schooled by the universe".

The Duke of Sussex, who took five months off work when daughter Lilibet was born, said his commitments can leave him feeling burned out.

And during an earnest chat for US firm BetterUp, he argued all companies should give employees time to build on their "mental fitness".

Bosses should allocate 15-minute "white space" periods during the day, he said.

"I too experience burn-out," he said.

"I'm burning the candle at both ends and that's like, boom.

"That's when you're forced to look inside yourself."

Despite his gilded LA lifestyle, Harry said he can't always do the things he'd "love to do" because of the "stresses" he faces.

But he uses meditation and working out to help cope when Archie goes to school and Lilibet takes a nap each morning.

"I know I need to meditate every single day," he said.

"There's a lesson here. 'I'm being schooled by the universe. Next time it happens, I'm going to be more resilient and can see a way around it to achieve the ultimate goal'. 

"If you have that perspective, every single bad thing that happens, what you perceive to be bad, can be good."

And he said he uses visualisation to "turn negatives into positives" – admitting it's his "superpower".

"Some days are great, some days are really hard," he said.

"I'm always kicking myself – 'If you'd have done this, which you know works for you, you wouldn't be in this state now.'

"It's work, but of all the work that's pulled towards us, it's the most fulfilling work – apart from being a dad."
