Mere days before Prince Harry’s highly anticipated autobiography, Spare, is set to be released, a copy of the Duke of Sussex’s book was ‘obtained’ by British daily newspaper, The Guardian.
Prince William, Prince Harry and their wives, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle trended on social media on Thursday morning, as Tweeps shared their thoughts on the bombshells dropped in Spare.
In the autobiography, Prince Harry recounts how he was physically attacked by his brother, Prince William, after the two of them got into a shouting match.
According to a report by The Guardian, Prince Harry wrote that the confrontation at his London home in 2019 ensued after his brother, now the Prince of Wales, called his wife, Meghan, “difficult, rude and abrasive”.
Harsh words were exchanged between the two princes, including Prince Harry accusing Prince William of acting like the heir, unable to understand why his younger brother was not content to be a spare.
After insults were thrown around between the two royal brothers, William reportedly told Harry that he was only trying to help, which Harry didn’t take well as he felt that what his brother was doing was not ‘helping’.
Harry then goes on to describe how, after going to the kitchen to get his brother a glass of water to calm him, William grabbed him by his collar, ripping his necklace and knocking him to the floor, which resulted in him falling on the dog’s bowl with his back, which cracked, the pieces cutting into him.
According to the report by The Guardian, this scene is only one of many Prince Harry describes in Spare.
Prince Harry’s memoir will be published on 10 January 2023. The book will be published in 16 languages.
