Prince Harry's first book leaks are revealed

From the first words of his extraordinary memoir, the tone was set: "For Meg, Archie and Lili...and of course my mother".

Understandably given the bitterness that enveloped Harry and the family he left behind, no mention of his father Charles or his once-beloved brother William.

Perhaps the irony of the title he chose Spare has been lost on Prince Harry, as none of his former close relatives or those close to them are spared a catalog of explosive accusations.< /p>

Ridicule, abandonment, violence, hatred and despair are just the beginning. Through 557 pages, the reader feels an overwhelming sense of astonishment and despair on his behalf and how far he has come to this end of total destruction of his family unit.

Prince Harry's memoir will be released globally on January 10 (

Indeed, loss and sadness seem to be at the heart of Harry's life, a story that seems guaranteed to continue as far as anyone else...
