Prince Harry has certainly generated a lot of buzz about The Royal Family in recent years. After his and Meghan Markle’s 2020 exit, the prince hasn’t shied away about revealing what happened behind palace doors. The release of his 2023 memoir Spare shed light on his fractured relationships with certain family members.
In his book, Harry writes about his estrangement with his father King Charles and his brother Prince William. Among the shocking revelations were William physically attacking Harry during an argument, and Charles joking he might not be Harry’s father. The juicy tell-all became a smash hit, selling 1.4 million copies on its first day.
The success of the book has sparked rumors of a follow-up, which has put the Duke of Sussex in a tough spot.
Prince Harry Conflicted About Revealing More Details About The Royal Family
There’s no doubt that Prince Harry’s memoir Spare was going to be a hit. Everyone wanted to hear his story and the behind-the-scenes gossip at Buckingham Palace. And he didn’t disappoint in delivering the goods.
The publisher was so impressed with the sales numbers that they reportedly want a follow-up to the 2023 book. But the author might not be in a rush to write his next release.
A source tells OK! that the Invictus Games founder is conflicted about the decision.
It’s got to be a tough spot for Harry to be in because the publisher is putting a ton of pressure on him to deliver some more salacious details on the royals.
It’s not exactly like his family have been very forgiving, so no doubt there’s some feeling on Harry’s part that he’s got nothing left to lose.
The memoir reportedly upset many family members, who viewed it as a betrayal. Although Charles and Kate Middleton’s recent health crises sparked reports of reconciliation with Harry, the royal rift is still intact.
Any hope the Duke of Sussex has of reconciling with his family would diminish if he writes another book.
For him to rub salt in the wounds again for his own personal gain would send him so far into the doghouse that there’d be no way back – it would ruin any chance of reconciliation.
Time will tell if Prince Harry writes a sequel to Spare. There’s no doubt, he probably has more royal secrets to spill. But his next move could driver a further wedge between him and his family.
