⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | Spare by Prince Harry Spare does not so much spill the tea on life in the royal household – it rather smashes the entire gold gilded teapot.
made even me, the most casual observer of the crown, want to neck Harry’s book neat like a shot of tequila. So that’s exactly what I did, after trekking to a colleague’s house to pick up the weighty tome, the preview arriving four hours later than planned.Spare does not so much spill the tea on life in the royal household – it rather smashes the entire gold gilded teapot, with the carefully PR-curated representations of King Charles and Prince William shattered amongst the shards.
His love for William, ‘Willy’, is evident, but often superseded by their ‘private olympiad’ of a sibling rivalry – constantly putting each other on the backfoot, tensions between them build to a crescendo which culminates in the much-publicised physical fight at Nott Cott.While Harry clearly loves his brother, tensions between the two are visible throughout Spare
Harry offered a less measured portrayal of his step-mother, Queen consort Camilla, whom he describes as ‘bored’ upon their first meeting, and ‘dangerous’ ahead of her wedding to his Pa. While he rather begrudgingly writes that he hopes she makes his father happy, he is less gracious towards the memoir’s primary antagonist, the press, who Harry squarely lays the blame for most of his woes.
But the book’s bitterness is counterbalanced with Harry’s heartbreakingly beautiful descriptions of his late mother. You can feel the palpable pain of his loss as he recalls how his younger self coped with Diana’s death by pretending she was merely in hiding, spiriting herself away from the ghastly flashbulb of photographers. He sees Diana everywhere, sending him messages through nature, and explains his desperate need for proximity by following her charity work.
