Every time a Royal biography pops up, heavy media coverage, countless controversies, and endless battles come synonymous with the same. There have been innumerable books based on the UK Sovereigns which have influenced their subjects time and again. However, all of them in the past were by self-claimed unauthorized authors who did not have any direct connection with the Palace. For the first time in history, an (ex)royal member himself has decided to go against the norms and publish a novel himself. As a matter of course, it is none other than the sidelined member, Prince Harry.

Earlier this year, the Duke made a declaration about his upcoming novel, Spare, which has been a matter of concern among Royal Experts. Legends had it that even the ones at Buckingham are also left at Prince Harry’s mercy owing to his “raw and unflinching” memoir. However, the most recent updates by the Executive Editor himself clarified that Prince would not be launching any direct assaults on his estranged family.  Meanwhile, another breaking news about the same has once again assured that the memoir is for anything but publicity and fame. 

Prince Harry will not go for newspaper serialization of Spare

The UK publishing house Transworld, which will be the official distributor of the Duke’s Memoir, has claimed that Prince Harry is not going for a newspaper serialization of the book. For the unversed, numerous Royal authors practice a method to publish their works in bits and pieces to gather an air of suspense over their works. Unlike them, the estranged Prince is opting for the traditional and original method of publishing his work, that is, one as a whole. 

Although the Duke has plans to broaden his book’s reach, Prince Harry will be shedding light on his memoir in an interview with Tom Branmdby, which will be broadcasted by ITV the next month. In fact, as Times reported, the Duke will also be interviewed by Anderson Cooper, the US TV personality, one day before the release of Spare. Other book retailers have already started pre-ordering the books to deliver in the market. One of the first to do the same is Waterstones, followed by Amazon and W H Smith.

Apart from the same, no PR or marketing strategies for the book due on the 10th of January have been out yet. The book, as clarified by Ombid Scobie, will offer a sympathetic touch to the deepest wounds of the Imperial Family. Nevertheless, the tensions around the upcoming project following their bombshell docuseries, Harry & Meghan on Netflix have ceased to pacify the air.
