Not a moment in his life where he didn’t feel put down: Prince Harry’s sincere autobiography

Not a moment in his life where he didn’t feel put down: Prince Harry’s sincere autobiography

Maybe the decision to leave the Royal Family, commonly referred to as "Megxit," was not driven by Meghan Markle but by Prince Harry. In his new autobiography "Spare," the prince suggests that he found in his American wife the catalyst he needed to leave a family where he always felt like the second best, the spare instead of the heir. The book has garnered attention for its revelations about tensions within the Royal Family, but at its core, it reveals the story of a complicated man who has been deeply affected by his birth order and the insecurity it has caused throughout his life. The book suggests that his decision to leave the Royal Family is less about higher principles and more about addressing this lifelong insecurity.

The term "spare" is mentioned frequently throughout Prince Harry's autobiography, "Spare," and is used to convey the feeling of being relegated and secondary throughout his life. The book states that this feeling began at his birth, as his father Charles, Prince of Wales, reportedly said that the queen has given birth to one heir and to one spare.

Of course, this comment was likely intended as a joke but it is described as the first time that Harry became aware of the idea of being a spare. He writes that this feeling of being secondary has been a constant in his life. In his autobiography, Prince Harry describes feeling like this spare person from a very young age, due to the fact that Prince Charles and Prince William were never supposed to fly on the same plane so that if one died, the other would survive.

Harry felt that no one cared what plane he was on. He also felt like the spare when it was suggested that William walk behind his mother's casket without him (this did not happen). He also believes that British tabloids targeted him due to his status as the second son. Throughout the book, Harry reveals a deep resentment towards William, his brother, which colors many of his memories and experiences, such as when he was criticized for wearing a Nazi costume, while William was not criticized.

In his autobiography, Prince Harry accuses Prince William of believing that Harry was exploiting his "spare" status to gain favor with their grandmother, the queen, by asking her to make an exception to army rules and allow him to wear a beard at his wedding. He also describes a tense and desperate moment when William, inside Nottingham Cottage, punched Harry due to his frustration with Meghan Markle's supposed inability to fit in. William is quoted as saying things about his sister-in-law like she is being rude and not communicating with her staff. However, Prince Harry says that the real reason behind the physical confrontation was that he was not doing his job.

In conclusion, Prince Harry's honesty in his autobiography is admirable and it is difficult not to feel sympathy for him. This new perspective on Harry, where he takes responsibility for much of the drama that has been previously attributed to Meghan Markle, is a new development. In previous TV interviews, such as with Oprah Winfrey in 2021 and the Netflix series "Harry & Meghan," he presented himself as a cultural warrior who was supporting his wife in her fight against the systemic racist bigotry of the outdated institution that was his family, and he was portrayed as a man who had had an enlightening experience.
