Prince Harry Spare: When does it come out in paperback and are there any new additions?

It is hard to believe that Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex’s memoir Spare only came out in January 2023 as it has attracted more than its fair share of headlines since its release. The New York Times reported at the time that “Spare” was sold for a rumoured sum of $20 million as part of a multi-book deal, with flexibility as to the number and type of books Harry and Meghan could produce, according to people with knowledge of the acquisition process, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because such negotiations are private.”

There were many revelations that came out from Spare, including a claim by Prince Harry that Prince William physically attacked him during a physical altercation and knocked him to the floor. In Spare, Harry writes: “(William) called me another name, then came at me. It all happened so fast. So very fast. He grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor. I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me. I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out.”

When Prince Harry was interviewed for Good Morning America by Michael Strahan, he said to him: “There is a quote in the book where you refer to your brother as your ’beloved brother and arch nemesis.’ Strong words. What did you mean by that?” Harry said in response: “There has always been this competition between us, weirdly. I think it really plays into or is played by the ‘heir/spare’.”
