Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, has been making headlines lately after his memoir “Spare”, candid interviews and revelations about his life as a member of the British royal family. From his struggles with mental health to his decision to step back from his royal duties, Harry has not shied away from speaking his truth.
Prince Harry claims he had enough material for “two books”, and did not include some things in his memoir because his father and brother would never forgive him.
According to reports, Harry hinted that there are still things he has not shared with the public, saying, “But there are some things that have happened, especially between me and my brother, and to some extent between me and my father, that I just don’t want the world to know. Because I don’t think they would ever forgive me”.
Spare has become the fastest-selling non-fiction book ever in the UK. The book outlines a long list of grievances against the Royal Family, as well as unresolved trauma over the death of his mother, his struggles with mental health, the isolated life he led before meeting Meghan, and the breakdown of relations with family members.
Prince Harry said there was information he revealed to his ghostwriter JP Moehringer “for context” but there was “absolutely no way” it could be included in the book. “It could have been two books, put it that way,” he said, adding that the first draft was 800 pages, double the final 400-page manuscript. “And there were other bits that I shared with JR, that I said: “Look, I’m telling you this for context but there’s absolutely no way I’m putting it in there.’ He said it was impossible to tell his story without his family members in it, “because they play such a crucial part in it, and also because you need to understand the characters and personalities of everyone within the book”
However, Kensington Palace and Buckingham Palace have both said they will not comment on it
