Touching. Prince Harry’s book title has a whole lot of meaning. The Duke of Sussex is releasing his new book at the beginning of 2023 and he’s already dropping hints on what we can expect.
In a statement from the book’s publisher Penguin Random House, the book aptly named Spare will be released on January 23, 2023. The book is described as a “landmark publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.” The book will be the first insight into Prince Harry’s life since he and his wife Megna Markle stepped down from their royal duties and since the bombshell Oprah interview in 2021.
Spare is a tell-all from Prince Harry’s perspective. According to Penguin Random House’s statement, the memoir reveals the memories of “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.”

Prince Harry Book Title Meaning: What Does Spare Mean?
What does Prince Harry’s book title Spare mean? The title Spare derives from the phrase “the heir and the spare” which might refer to his relationship with his brother the heir to the crown Prince William.
According to some royal insiders, the book is something that the Royal family should fear. “It’s juicy, that’s for sure,” a publishing insider told Page Six, “There’s a lot of new stories in there about the past that Harry has not spoken about before, about his childhood … there is some content in there that should make his family nervous.” Although Harry will be spilling a lot about his family, he will not be talking about his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, according to Page Six.
Pulitzer prize winner J.R. Moehringer will be helping Harry with the memoir. In a statement when he broke the news of the Prince writing the book, Harry said, “I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become. I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story — the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned — I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think. I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far and excited for people to read a firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful.”
Prince Harry and Prince William’s relationship has been complicated ever since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex decided to step down from their royal duties. In recent reports from June 22, 2022, the brothers have reportedly “hit rock bottom,” according to an insider who spoke to Us Weekly Us Weekly’s source also claimed that while William “still loves his little brother,” he’s not going to pretend like everything’s just fine between them. “He’s his own flesh and blood and that underlying affection will never go away. William’s not one to bear grudges but what’s right is right,” the insider shared. “He’ll be civil to a point, but he’s not going to play happy families with them again or pretend that everything’s A-OK when it’s anything but.”
The Duke of Cambridge has “not been in a good place” with the Duke of Sussex for years, the Us Weekly insider claims, adding that things between the brothers have been “doomed” and “irreparable” ever since Harry and Meghan Markle’s tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021. The source also claims that William “doesn’t know who [Harry] is anymore and the trust between them is strained,” noting that the royal family has been “burned so many times” by Harry’s public statements. “They’ll never recover from the damage that has been done.”
The Princes reunited at their grandmother Queen Elizabeths’s Platinum Jubilee in June 2022, but things were still tense between the two. Royal expert Russell Myers claimed at the time that the brothers refused to make eye contact during the service. “It was very, very frosty inside the church. You could cut the atmosphere with a knife. The brothers didn’t lock eyes or make eye contact at all,” he told Australian news network, Sunrise, on June 6, 2022. “Harry was craning his neck to look at William and William didn’t look back at him. I think there’s still a lot of bad atmosphere going on and there needs to be a bit more water under the bridge until those brothers come back together.”
The book was originally going to be published in the latter half of 2022. However, with the sudden news of the Queen’s death in September 2022, the book is going to be published in January 2023. The newly appointed Prince and Princess of Wales invited the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to look at the citizen’s tributes to the late Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle. Kensington Palace says William invited his brother and sister-in-law to join him and Kate. Earlier in the day, William was present for his father’s proclamation as King. The couples who were wearing all black looked fondly at the flowers and messages of support to the Queen and her family. Page Six reported that the brothers reunited again on September 13, 2022, the day before the Queen’s procession to Westminster Hall. Their wives, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle, also were in attendance. The Royal couples made their appearance the next day by walking the procession to the famous Abbey where the Queen laid state for four days before her funeral on September 19, 2022. Prince Harry wore a black suit with his military medals while Prince William wore his military uniform.“We are all very grateful – both sides putting all things aside for the Queen,” a Royal source told Page Six.
