But the revelations in ‘Spare,’ and not only the attacks on the royal family in that book and in the interviews surrounding it, which large numbers of people watched, of course, that Harry was responsible for, and it was his memoir.”Fitzwilliams said that while Harry’s bombshell memoir was released in January last year, it’s pearl-clutching revelations still managed to have an impact on the king’s reign.” ‘Spare’ was so badly planned, you felt that he’d not had advice, but to attack Queen Camilla was clearly a red line, as was pointed out by the press that he’s so hostile to,” he told the outlet.
