Prince Harry Hints at Mystery Family Members Who Wouldn’t Forgive Him for Writing Spare

To the royal family, Prince Harry may have been just another heir waiting in line for the throne.

On April 2, Prince Harry gave a raw and emotional interview with the BBC in which he expressed that he would love reconciliation with his family and thinks that there is no point in continuing to fight anymore. But he also explained that making it happen is not that easy, adding, "Of course, some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book." He stressed that they will never forgive him for "lots of things".

About the writing, Prince Harry was referring to Spare, a memoir written by him in 2023 that tells his story, chronicling his journey with raw, unflinching honesty. The book was full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and so much inside information about the treatment he received in the royal house all his life. During its release, the Duke of Sussex told PEOPLE that "It's a raw account of my life, the good, the bad, and everything in between." But Prince Harry did not stop there—he had more to say about his royal rift.
Prince Harry also spoke about the toll the royal security issue took on him, while touching on King Charles' response to the situation.
Tension among Prince Harry and King Charles over his security dispute
Ever since Prince Harry shifted his base to America with Meghan Markle, he has been long engaged in the fight to demand royal security for his family. For the last years, he fought tooth and nail to gain this luxury back, but the court trial and loss broke his spirit in the process and also showed him some ugly truths. In the same interview, Prince Harry shared that because of this security dispute, his father, King Charles, has distanced himself from his son and refuses to communicate. "He won't speak to me because of this security stuff," he shared.

In fact, the situation among the two families is so bad that his elder brother, Prince William, is reportedly contemplating removing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's HRH title when he becomes the king. This defeat clearly weighs heavily on Prince Harry's heart, whose relationship with the Royal Family has been strained for a long time now. But his words reflect that he is ready to embrace them back in his life, despite the differences, should they feel the same way about him and his new family.
