It has been confirmed by royal journalist Omid Scobie that Prince Harry‘s book Spare was completed several months ago.
Contrary to all the reports, Prince Harry picked the title by himself because it is a name that has followed him all his life.
The author, who is also a close friend of Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, gave a more elaborate explanation about the bold title that is deemed provocative by some members of the royal family: “It’s a punchy choice, but for a word that has trailed the prince like a shadow, being the spare was one of the most defining aspects of his royal existence. Leaning on the derogatory moniker for a title is Harry finally owning the term after a lifetime of being called it.”
Meghan Markle‘s husband turned the manuscript in over the summer, and he did not change the tone and did not remove any humiliating chapters.
Prince Harry did not share any additional thoughts in the memoir that focus on Queen Elizabeth II‘s passing or her extraordinary legacy.
Omid Scobie revealed: “There were also no last-minute rewrites or edits after the Queen’s death. SPARE’s manuscript was completed almost five months before the monarch’s passing, a detail that will be acknowledged in a note at the start of the book.”
Only a handful of people have seen Prince Harry’s manuscript; some are alarmed by what they read.
According to Daily Express‘s royal correspondent Richard Palmer, members of Prince Harry and Markle’s team are concerned by some of the details in the memoir.
According to the royal reporter and expert, the worried staff members warn that the book’s angle is not only disastrous for King Charles III, Camilla, Queen Consort, but it also spells trouble for Markle and her husband.
The royal author stated: “And I don’t think anybody can be really sure what is going to be in it or not. There might be a few hints. Certainly, some time ago, I was led to believe that there was some real concern in Harry and Meghan’s camp, people working for them who had apparently seen the manuscript and were alarmed by it and thought that it would be disastrous for the couple.”
Prince Harry’s self-sabotaging book is expected to stain King Charles’s reign and drag down Camilla, Queen Consort, because it revisits the affairs and inappropriate comments she made.
The royal commentator claimed: “Harry’s unhappiness with his lot and the members of the Royal Family, his father’s affair with then Camilla Parker Bowles, the break-up of his parent’s marriage when he was young, the death of his mother [and the fact] he has never really dealt with the emotional fallout.”
He believes that the racist chatter surrounding the British royal family will be dug up because of the book.
He shared: “In short, I suppose the Royal Family is worried that the book will cast a shadow over the new reign, and will reignite all of the controversies about allegations of racism, the allegations of bullying against Meghan. It’s just a bag of worms for the Royal Family.”
According to royal expert and author Katie Nicholl, King Charles is taking the warnings that his beloved wife and new Queen will be trashed in the book seriously and has laid out some consequences.”
Speaking to Piers Morgan, she said: “According to a very good authority from a source close to the King, if they do trash, Camilla, it could be the nail in the coffin” for both The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.”
Prince Harry has made a choice that will have some consequences.
