He said: "And I keep thinking back to that video he made when he lost the court case. And he looked so sad in that, so really down and not upbeat like he was normally.
"I feel somehow he's having probably second thoughts. All he wanted to do was
"The thing is, if he'd only said sorry on that interview, 'sorry, Pop, you know, I do want to see you' - I think that might have had a different [effect].
"But in many ways, it was coming from his heart, I thought. His father is not well, he's concerned - it's his father."

"I did feel that was a change in his attitude. I mean, I haven't seen anything in five years. and then suddenly he comes out with that.
"I thought he looked so sad, you know, so sad."
The Sun's Royal Editor called Harry's interview "one of their biggest mistakes" and said "it came from a place of anger".

against the decision to remove his taxpayer-funded security.
In a fresh scathing attack, the Duke of Sussex unleashed a host of new claims including how dad Charles is no longer speaking to him and how he's "uncovered his worst fears".
The Duke of Sussex said he would "love reconciliation" with the royal family.
This comes after years of feuding with the family, including his own brother Prince William.
The feud between the Duke and his family started when he and Meghan Markle announced on January 8, 2020, that they would be stepping down as 'senior' members of the Royal Family.
A tragic revelation in the bombshell interview was when Prince Harry revealed that his father, King Charles, won't speak to him.
Harry said when making the emotional admission: "He won't speak to me because of this security stuff."
Harry and William are also said to be barely on speaking terms.
William was reportedly 'blindsided' by Harry's decision to ditch his duties to live in his Montecito mansion with Meghan and the pair have yet to make amends.
Another blow to the Royal relationships struck when Harry released his memoir Spare in 2023.
Harry didn't hold back in the controversial book which caused a deeper chasm between him and his brother.
In the bombshell memoir, he detailed Megxit and how the Royal family brand Meghan "difficult" and "rude."
He slammed Queen Camilla as a villain and was highly criticised for outing his family for cash.
The Duke of Sussex chillingly suggested
He said he misses the UK and it is "sad" that he won't be able to
A Palace Spokesperson said at the time: "All of these issues have been examined repeatedly and meticulously by the courts, with the same conclusion reached on each occasion."

Prince Harry is 'pointing finger' & 'wants to blame everybody else' in bombshell interview as he 'fumes over court loss'
PRINCE Harry is pointing the finger in his bombshell interview after losing his battle for taxpayer-funded security, an expert slams.
The Duke chillingly suggested
Broadcaster and royal biographer
Vickers told The Sun: "I think he's pointing the finger pretty much at all of us really.
"He's always angry and so he's sort of doing what he does so often you know which is to blame other people.
"That is what they do the whole time.
"They're always telling us what they think and what they feel and telling us that we're in the wrong and they're in the right.
"He wants to attribute blame to everybody else - I mean he never seems to accept that he, himself, has done quite a few things which on the whole we don't really like."
After losing the appeal over receiving security for himself and his family - after battling for three-and-a-half years - Prince Harry expressed he was immensely disappointed with the verdict.
