On January 10, a new era of the Royal Family will be ushered in, and it might well be marked by disappointment, anger, revenge, and broken hearts.
After all, that’s the date that Prince Harry will release his memoir, Spare, which is believed to include several new bombshell accusations and revelations about the Royal Family.
As of today, the specific contents are not known to the public, nor the Harry’s family for that matter. However, it appears as though the mere fact that the memoir will be published is enough to drive a further wedge between Harry and the other royals.
Now, writing a book is far from the easiest thing in the world, but when it comes to memoirs a lot of their subject matter is centered around past relationships and happenings. As such, it’s interesting to learn the sensational claims about Harry’s methods of accumulating certain information for his tell-all project.
According to a source with the Sun newspaper, Harry got in touch with several of his ex-girlfriends, asking if they’d help him with the book. As per reports, he didn’t quite get the answer he’d hoped for.
Harry’s upcoming memoir has been a talking point for a long time. Several reports have revealed that his book – published by Penguin Random House – is bound to create new tension between himself and the rest of the Royal Family.
Some say it will include sections focusing on the rift between Harry and William, as well as the presently-strained relationship between Harry and his father, now-King Charles.
Harry’s tell-all book has been said to be an “accurate and wholly truthful” account of his life.

The Prince dropped the news that he was writing a new book four months after the now-infamous Oprah interview aired.
“Prince Harry will share, for the very first time, the definitive account of the experiences, adventures, losses, and life lessons that have helped shape him,” Random House said in the press release, teasing the book as an “honest and captivating personal portrait.”
New details about Harry’s book were disclosed recently, and the release date is January 10. It will be named Spare, with Harper’s Bazaar speculating that it might address Harry’s “spare” role as the second son of a King, or that perhaps he is being “spared” from the Royal Family now that he has left.
No matter what, it’s generally rumored that the memoir will paint a negative picture of his family. According to Page Six sources, the book will contain several truth bombs.
“It’s juicy, that’s for sure,” one NY publishing source told the news outlet.
“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,” another publishing insider added.
Harry might risk getting banned from coronation with new book
Despite making plenty of money from his previous work, Harry will be raking it in when his is released. According to Page Six, he’s already received “at least $20 million upfront” from his publisher, Penguin Random House.
May 6 will mark the 4th birthday of Harry and Meghan’s son, Archie. How the couple reacted to the fact that King Charles’s coronation will be on the same date has not yet been revealed. Neither has it been confirmed whether Harry and Meghan will even be invited.
According to royal expert Katie Nicholl, though, Harry and Meghan will be asked to attend the coronation. She told Entertainment Tonight that King Charles and Camilla would want them in attendance.
“Behind the scenes, Camilla has done really everything she can to try and bring this family back together, and press the importance of trying to move on from this rift, and I think she would be very pleased, as would the king for Harry and Meghan to be at the coronation,” she said.
“It remains to be seen whether or not they attend. But of course, it will be down to the Sussexes to make the ultimate decision as to whether they’re going to come over for King Charles’ coronation on May 6.”
