Much anticipation surrounds Prince Harry’s upcoming memoir, titled “Spare,” which has already caused quite a stir.
The title itself is controversial, referencing the British media’s infamous labels for Prince William and Prince Harry as the heir and the spare, respectively.
Despite the controversy, it is expected that the book will be a massive success in terms of sales.
However, some recent events in Birmingham during the Christmas period have left many perplexed.
WH Smith, a prominent bookstore chain, has been offering pre-orders of Prince Harry’s memoir at half the retail price.
This move is unexpected, as there were no indications that the book would have any difficulty selling at its full price.
It seems peculiar that such a significant discount is being offered even before the book’s release.
The release of “Spare” has also created rifts within the royal family.
A Palace Insider revealed to OK Magazine that Prince William and Prince Harry have barely spoken since the announcement of the memoir.
This strained relationship is not the only consequence of the book.
Another insider claims that King Charles III intends to exclude Harry and his wife Meghan Markle from the official coronation ceremony if the memoir portrays Queen Consort Camilla in a negative light.
According to a source close to the royal family, Charles has spent the past two decades working towards gaining public acceptance for Camilla.
He deeply loves and protects her, and his efforts have finally paid off, as even Queen Elizabeth has come to accept their relationship.
If Harry’s book forces Charles to choose between him and Camilla, it is believed that Charles will side with his wife.
The announcement of Prince Harry’s memoir has reportedly left the entire royal family dreading its release.
They are concerned about the controversial and provocative nature of the title, as it sets a tone that may not be favorable.
Adding to the unease, Harry has already arranged a friendly interview with ITV journalist Tom Bradby, who has shown sympathy towards him despite being a journalist.
It is worth noting that the book itself was not written by Prince Harry but by ghostwriter J.R. Moringa.
Therefore, referring to Harry as the author may be a stretch, especially considering his previous criticisms of his own life and family.
Instead of choosing a neutral journalist for the interview, Harry opted for Bradby, who had previously covered the royal family in the 90s and had a personal connection with both William and Harry.
In addition to the interview with Bradby, it has been reported that Prince Harry will also be interviewed by Anderson Cooper, a renowned reporter from CBS.
This interview is expected to air on Cooper’s show, “60 Minutes,” two days before the memoir’s release.
Cooper expressed his admiration for Harry, even recalling their eye contact during the prince’s wedding in 2018.
This opportunity to interview Harry has left many in awe of Cooper’s luck.
As the release date of Prince Harry’s memoir approaches, tensions within the royal family continue to rise.
The controversial title, choice of interviewers, and potential revelations within the book have created an atmosphere of uncertainty and anticipation.
It remains to be seen how the public will receive “Spare” and its impact on the already complex dynamics of the royal family.
