Charles, Camilla and the press all come under attack, but the charge sheet against William is long
Photograph: WPA/Getty ImagesPhotograph: WPA/Getty ImagesHarry’s wrath. Harry’s revenge. Harry’s truth. The Duke of Sussex’s memoir Spare is finally hitting bookshops and its pages are dripping with accusation, anger and sorrow.taking sibling competitiveness to “Olympiad” levels, throwing tantrums over Harry encroaching on his territory: Africa.
Harry’s stepmother, Camilla, the Queen Consort, is accused of playing “the long game, a campaign aimed at marriage and eventually the crown” with the spin doctor she is said to have persuaded Charles to hire leaking her conversations with William. When she eventually married Charles, “in a funny way, I even wanted Camilla to be happy. Maybe she’d be less dangerous if she was happy,” Harry writes.
The picture he paints is of the royals all bidding to top the court circular annual Christmas Eve list for most engagements. The family “tolerated, even leaned into the nonsense of the court circular for the same reason it accepted the ravages and depredations of the press: fear. Fear of the public. Fear of the future. Fear of the day the nation would say: ‘OK, shut it down,’” he writes.
Harry is excoriating on the press; absolutely venomous in his description of Rebekah Brooks, after a “drugs shame” story about him was splashed across the front pages. He doesn’t name her – writing only “an anagram of Rehabber Kooks”. In response to the drug story, Harry claims, Charles’s team had spun Harry “right under a bus”, making up a story about Harry being taken to visit a rehab centre; so it would “bolster” Charles’s reputation, which had “sagged” since Diana’s death.
