Spare by Prince Harry The Duke of Sussex
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Discover the global phenomenon that tells an unforgettable story of love, loss, and healing.
It was one of the most poignant images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s casket as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would unfold from that point on.
For Harry, this is that story at last.
Prior to losing his mother, twelve-year-old Prince Harry was known as the carefree one, the happy-go-lucky spare to the more serious heir. Grief changed everything. He grappled with school, anger, loneliness—and because he held the press responsible for his mother’s death, he struggled to embrace life in the spotlight.
At the age of twenty-one, he joined the British Army. The discipline provided structure, and two tours of duty made him a hero in his homeland. However, he soon felt more adrift than ever, battling post-traumatic stress and debilitating panic attacks. Above all, he couldn’t find true love.
Then he met Meghan. The world was captivated by the couple’s cinematic romance and celebrated their fairy-tale wedding. Yet, from the outset, Harry and Meghan became targets of the media, enduring waves of abuse, racism, and falsehoods. Witnessing his wife’s suffering, with their safety and mental well-being at stake, Harry saw no other recourse to prevent history from repeating itself but to leave his motherland. Throughout the centuries, departing from the Royal Family had been an act few had dared to undertake. In fact, the last to attempt it had been his mother…
For the first time, Prince Harry tells his own story, chronicling his journey with raw, unflinching honesty. A groundbreaking publication, Spare is replete with insights, revelations, self-examination, and hard-earned wisdom about the enduring power of love in the face of grief.
