Prince Harry has defended his tell-all autobiography “Spare”, insisting he had no regrets after its publication more than two years ago sowed discord within the British royal family.<\/p>\n
“I\u00a0don’t believe that I aired my dirty laundry in public,” King Charles III’s younger son told the Guardian newspaper in an interview released on Sunday.<\/p>\n
“It was a difficult message, but I did it in the best way possible. My conscience is clear,” he insisted.<\/p>\n
With its unstinting depiction of the royals and at times uncomfortably detailed account of his life as a prince, “Spare” flew off the shelves after its release in January 2023.<\/p>\n
But his frank criticisms of other family members, including his brother’s wife Catherine and his stepmother Camilla, irritated Buckingham Palace.<\/p>\n
In the wake of the book’s publication, the already strained ties between Harry and the rest of royal family frayed further.<\/p>\n
Harry had quit royal duties in 2020, moving to California with his wife Meghan, nee Markle.<\/p>\n
Before paying a surprise visit to Charles on Wednesday, he had not seen his father for 19 months.<\/p>\n
Their previous meeting was in February 2024, when Harry rushed to the UK after Charles announced he had been diagnosed with cancer, for which he is still receiving treatment.<\/p>\n
Harry, who despite having stepped back from royal affairs still holds the title of Duke of Sussex, insisted “Spare” was “not about revenge”.<\/p>\n
“It is about accountability,” he told the Guardian in Kyiv, which he visited on Friday for charitable reasons.<\/p>\n
“I know that (speaking out) annoys some people and it goes against the narrative,” Harry told the paper.<\/p>\n
“The book? It was a series of corrections to stories already out there. One point of view had been put out and it needed to be corrected.”<\/p>\n
He had previously voiced hopes for “reconciliation” with the king, as he did “not know how much longer my father has”.<\/p>\n
