Harry’s memoir – spare yourself!
The title Spare says all anyone needs to know.
Because it’s nothing more than the self-pitying tales Harry has been telling for years. And all because he was not born the first royal son. Sad. Sick.
Proceeds to charity? Don’t bet on it
The Washington Post reported yesterday that:
Financial terms were not disclosed, but Harry, Duke of Sussex, will donate proceeds from ‘Spare’ to British charities.
That raises this obvious question: What portion of the proceeds will he donate?
I’d bet my life savings Meghan won’t let Harry donate even a quarter. There’s a reason the word “all” does not precede “donate.”
In my preview of Spare, I wrote that Harry’s relationship with his family had become irretrievably broken down. And I suggested he wrote this memoir with that recognition firmly in mind.
That informs my take on the surprise delay in releasing Spare. It’s now scheduled for January 10.
Many royal experts think the delay was out of deference to his grandmother. But Harry was only recalibrating to retaliate more devastatingly. Because he felt he was snubbed at the queen’s funeral and in the wake of her death.
