PRINCE HARRY’S BOOK BREAKS RECORD ON FIRST DAY
Prince Harry’s tell-all memoir Spare has broken a record on the very first day of its release.
Spare has become the UK’s fastest-selling non-fiction book ever, according to its publisher Penguin Random House.
“We always knew this book would fly but it is exceeding even our most bullish expectations”, said the publisher.
“As far as we know, the only books to have sold more in their first day are those starring the other Harry (Potter).”
In the memoir, Harry spills the beans on what has happened behind the gates of the palace for the last few decades.
News 24 reports that Harry’s book has garnered attention around the world with its disclosures about his personal struggles and its accusations about other royals, including his father King Charles, stepmother Camilla and elder brother Prince William.
The book follows the controversial Netflix documentary featuring Harry and his wife Meghan since they officially gave up their royal duties in 2020 and first moved to Canada before moving to California.
News 24 further reports that Harry speaks of his grief and growing up after the death of his mother Princess Diana when he was just 12, his use of cocaine and other drugs to cope, how he killed 25 Taliban fighters while serving as a soldier in Afghanistan, and even how he lost his virginity.
