In the most eagerly-awaited memoir of 2023, Prince Harry tells his version of the story about the tragic death of his mother Princess Diana, life within the Royal Family and his marriage to Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, with remarkable candour and directness.
Shortlisted for the British Book Awards Non-Fiction Narrative Book of the Year 2024
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow and horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes must be thinking and feeling-and how their lives would play out from that point on.
For Harry, this is that story at last. With its raw, unflinching honesty, Spare is a landmark publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.
Prince Harry wishes to support British charities with donations from his proceeds from SPARE. The Duke of Sussex has donated $1,500,000 to Sentebale, an organization he founded with Prince Seeiso in their mothers’ legacies, which supports vulnerable children and young people in Lesotho and Botswana affected by HIV/AIDS. Prince Harry will also donate to the non-profit organization WellChild in the amount of £300,000. WellChild, which he has been Royal patron of for fifteen years, makes it possible for children and young people with complex health needs to be cared for at home instead of hospital, wherever possible.

….royalist but reading this I can’t help but think how terribly sad the whole thing. The tabloid media has a lot to answer for
Although its a very interesting book. It was hard for me to
read as I know all about being the “Spare”. However,
it was no surprise to read the way he has been treated by his own family. My heart goes out to him...

“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”
This was a total FOMO purchase. As a bookseller, I saw that it was flying out, and as an indifferent onlooker to the story I thought I’d give it a go.
Spare is split...
