Prince Harry Faces British Backlash Over Tell-All Royal Memoir

Yesterday, Prince Harry was met with opposition in the United Kingdom and beyond in relation to his memoir Spare. This opposition came in the form of criticism from the media, commentators, army veterans, and even the Taliban; however, Buckingham Palace remained silent on the widely leaked contents of the memoir.

The Spanish-language version of the memoir was accidentally put up for sale in Spain, which resulted in the revelations from the book dominating headlines and airwaves in the days leading up to the book’s formal publication on Tuesday.

Revelations such as how the heir to the throne, Prince William, allegedly threw Harry to the ground in a quarrel in 2019 and how he murdered 25 people in Afghanistan provoked scorn and derision. One of the revelations involved how Harry killed 25 people in Afghanistan.

Prince Harry Faces Growing Criticism Over Memoir Revelations

On Friday, Prince Harry was met with criticism regarding his memoir titled “Spare.” This criticism came from the media, commentators, army veterans, and even the Taliban; yet, Buckingham Palace remained silent regarding the widely leaked contents of the memoir.

The Spanish-language version of the memoir was accidentally put up for sale in Spain, which resulted in the revelations from the book dominating headlines and airwaves in the days leading up to the book’s formal publication on Tuesday.

The revelations about how he lost his virginity, took drugs, and killed 25 people in Afghanistan have led to both condemnation and derision. Among the revelations is an alleged physical attack on him by the heir to the throne, Prince William. Other revelations include how he killed people in Afghanistan.

“calculated and disgusting” and a “work of malice” are how author A.N. Wilson described the tome that was written by a ghostwriter. It is the largest royal book that has been published since Prince Harry’s mother Princess Diana worked with Andrew Morton on a biography in 1992.

Wilson added that the book had only succeeded in having the public sympathise with the royal family, “not with him,” and that he thought it was “idiotic” that he had decided to go public with his statements.

Following their departure from royal duties and relocation to the United States in 2020, Harry and his American wife Meghan have published their newest broadside in the form of a book.

Since then, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, to give them their full titles, have capitalised on their royal ties by signing a number of lucrative contracts for tell-all books and programmes.

Due to the error that occurred on Thursday, the Spanish-language edition of the book was hastily removed from shelves; however, this was after it had already been purchased by several media sources, which ruined the publisher’s stringent international embargo.

According to a tabloid publication called The Sun, the public’s compassion for Harry due to the death of his mother when he was a child could not “justify the destructive, spiteful road he has chosen, putting his own family under the bus for millions of dollars.”

It advised him to listen to those who have urged him to “stop for his own good” and pointed out “countless contradictions” in his statements in an editorial. It said that he should cease making these assertions “for his own good.”

According to Gaby Hinsliff of The Guardian, the book goes beyond discussing topics of “awkward public interest” and instead engages in the “washing of soiled linen” in public.

This week, an excerpt from the book that had been stolen by a left-leaning daily was published for the first time in the United States edition of that publication. In it, Harry revealed his physical struggle with William.

“The facts of the brothers’ alleged punch-up in a palace cottage are at once almost laughably minor and heartbreakingly sad,” she wrote. “The details of the brothers’ supposed punch-up in a castle cottage.”

The word “Trashed” means:

Some veterans were incensed by Harry’s arrogant and disrespectful comments, in which he claimed to have killed 25 people in Afghanistan and compared his actions to removing “chess pieces” from a board. These comments have been interpreted as boastful and inappropriate.

A retired British colonel named Tim Collins, who commanded a battalion in Iraq in 2003, has spoken out against what he calls a “tragic money-making fraud,” adding, “That’s not how you behave in the army.” Not in the way that we had thought.

After destroying his own family, “Harry has now turned against the other family, the military, that once accepted him,” he added. “Harry has demolished his birth family.”

Colonel Richard Kemp, another distinguished war veteran who served in Afghanistan, claimed that his remarks will “fuel extremist propaganda.”

Anas Haqqani, a senior leader with the Taliban, tweeted the following to Harry: “Mr. Harry! The people you slaughtered were not pawns; they were real people with families who were concerned about their whereabouts and hoped for their safe return.

Jealousy asserts that –

As the hashtag #ShutUpHarry began to trend on Twitter, The Sun cited individuals close to King Charles III as saying that he had been grieved by the book. These sources were described as saying that Harry’s father had been upset by the book.

However, there was no official comment from the palace.

According to new allegations that were published in the memoir late on Friday night by the Daily Telegraph, Prince Harry asserts that his father was envious of Meghan and sought to prevent him and Meghan from receiving financial support from him.

The duke writes that he realised Charles feared “a novel and resplendent” royal who would “dominate” the limelight after the now-king raised concerns about the monarchy financially supporting the couple after their wedding in 2018.

The duke writes that he realised Charles feared “a novel and resplendent” royal who would “dominate” the limelight.

According to the Telegraph, Harry adds in the letter that he is referring to Diana when he says that “he had experienced that before and he had no interest in letting it happen to him again.”

An specialist on constitutional law at Bangor University in north Wales named Craig Prescott told AFP that the “magnitude” and “ferocity” of the present schism in the royal family was unprecedented, but that the royal family would most likely “ride this out.”

Any attempt to strip Harry and Meghan of their royal titles, however, would call for political action and the introduction of new legislation.

According to what he said, the royal family would probably view such as “pouring fuel onto the fire” at a time when they wanted to concentrate on Charles’s impending coronation on May 6.

Final Words

Prince Harry’s memoir “Spare” was criticised Friday by media, commentators, army veterans, and even the Taliban, but Buckingham Palace remained silent.

After a Spanish-language memoir accidentally went on sale in Spain, revelations from the book dominated headlines and airwaves days before its official publication on Tuesday.

Revelations, including an alleged physical attack by Prince William, how he lost his virginity, did drugs, and murdered 25 people in Afghanistan, have drawn censure and mockery.
