Prince Harry may find himself rueing his decision to speak out against the royal family, as suggested by a prominent royal biographer.
The Duke of Sussex provided intriguing insights into royal life in his memoir, “Spare,” which was met with mixed reviews upon its release in January.
However, Sari Bedell-Smith expressed concerns that Harry could follow the path of other public figures who criticized their families harshly, only to later express regret.
Reflecting on Harry’s choice to pen a memoir, Bedell-Smith remarked, “I wish he hadn’t.
Even though he was venting and finding some form of release through that, I believe he unintentionally caused pain to those who cared about him.”
Drawing parallels to her own experience, Patti Davis, daughter of former US president Ronald Reagan, shared her insights in an op-ed following the publication of “Spare.”
Davis acknowledged understanding Harry’s motivations but admitted regret over her own critical portrayal of her family in her writing.
She confessed, “My justification in writing a book, I now wish I hadn’t, and please don’t go by it, was very similar to what I understand to be Harry’s reasoning.
I wanted to tell the truth, I wanted to set the record straight.”
Davis emphasized the complexity of truth and the impact of publicly exposing personal sentiments.
Despite facing backlash and a notable decline in popularity post-“Spare,” Prince Harry is rumored to be considering adding an extra chapter to the paperback edition of his memoir slated for release later this year.
However, Daily host Kinsey Schofield cautioned against this move, asserting that any new content would need to delve into private family matters to attract readers.
Schofield opined, “I truly think that if he adds anything to the paperback edition of ‘Spare,’ the only way people will buy it again is if he is critical of his family…normal people are tired of him criticizing his family.
We’re over it, we get it.”
She underscored the potential repercussions of such a decision on Harry’s public image.
The prospect of an additional chapter in Prince Harry’s memoir has sparked debates among royal watchers and fans.
Many question the necessity of further revelations about the royal family and express weariness over continual criticism from Harry.
As opinions vary on whether Harry’s candidness is justified or detrimental, the ongoing saga surrounding his memoir continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
