bombshell memoir “Spare” hit the bookshelves this past January — just months before “The Crown” dropped its sixth and final season.Now, actor Dominic West — who played Prince (Now King) Charles on the Netflix royal drama — has revealed that he ran to pick up a copy of the autobiography once it came out.The British star, 54, divulged that he used the Duke of Sussex’s words to impact his performance on the show — calling the book a “gift.”“I bought it immediately, and I think it did slightly affect the way we played that key scene where he wakes Harry up,” the “Wire” actor explained to Variety recently.He went on: “I’ve been reading every newspaper article or journalistic article on him since I got the job.” “In a way, this was a gift that he was in the headlines every day when he was becoming king — like getting irritated by the fountain pen,” West said. “In the cold, formal exterior of this guy, I tried to get those little tells.”The “Affair” alum noted that “Spare” heavily influenced his acting in one particular scene of “The Crown” — the moment where Charles informed Harry that his mother Princess Diana died in 1997 in the early hours of the morning.The “Invictus Games” founder penned in his book about the tragedy: “Pa didn’t hug me.

Yes,” a source told Daily Mail. “Would he privately admit he could have done some things better, or at least differently? Of course.”“But while I am sure they still don’t agree on everything all the time, he and the Prince of Wales are firmly united now around a common shared interest, which is to keep the institution in a place where it can serve the nation,” the insider went on.“This was happening anyway as the late Queen got older, but there’s no doubt what happened with Harry brought everything into sharp relief.”The source added that Charles feels “great pain” over his heavily-strained relationship with Harry, and that there’s been “barely any level of communication” between the two camps.“There is undeniable anger at the anguish the King believes Harry caused the late Queen in the last years of her life, not to mention the insults he has heaped upon his own wife Camilla, of whom Charles is understandably protective,” he added.The Post has reached out to Buckingham Palace for comment.It comes after royal expert and commentator Richard Fitzwilliams claimed that Harry simply “doesn’t care” about not being invited to his dad’s upcoming birthday celebration next week.The Sussexes reportedly didn’t make it on to the guest list for His Majesty’s upcoming 75th birthday gathering at Clarence House on November 14.“I really don’t think Harry cares about not being invited to his father’s 75th.

looking to ink a similar deal for herself.And while this is still unconfirmed, royal expert and commentator Richard Fitzwilliams has urged the Sussexes to stop speaking about Harry’s family in their projects.“Harry and Meghan are supposed to have signed a four-book contract with Penguin Random House but we have only seen one released,” Fitzwilliams told Daily Express.“Meghan could write and release her memoirs but after Spare, who can you trust? That’s why the rift with the royal family is as deep as it is, for all of the reasons that we know.”“You can’t trust them. They could decide to do this, they could decide to do that, and they are so unpredictable,” he added.Fitzwilliams said that if the “Suits” alum was to release a memoir of her own, “it wouldn’t be possible to release such a book without it being sensational, and that could cause enormous problems.”The royal expert claimed that the pair’s attacks on the royals “adversely affected the value of their brand” — something they will “seriously need to take into consideration.”The Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a lucrative four-book deal with Penguin Random House in 2021.“Harry won’t be reconciling with the royal family any time soon by the looks of things,” Fitzwilliams shared.

King Charles’ coronation on Saturday with the presence of Prince Harry and Camilla, Queen Consort.The Duke of Sussex, 38, published his tell-all memoir “Spare” earlier this year, in which he made some eyebrow-raising comments about his stepmother, 75.Ahead of the crowning on May 6, royal expert Nick Bullen claimed that Camilla is hell-bent and “furious” about the statements Harry wrote in his book.“I know from various people who are close to her [that] she was pretty furious with what was being said about her,” the True Royalty TV co-founder told Fox News recently.“But she is not someone that is going to be phoning Harry or [his wife] Meghan [Markle] and shouting down on the phone at them,” he went on.In “Spare,” the Invictus Games founder alleged that Camilla leaked stories to the press about him and the rest of the royal family.He also penned that he “begged” Charles not to marry her, as he believed that she would turn into his “wicked stepmother.”“The book was full of bomb-like moments that were going off in the palaces around Britain,” said Bullen.“For the king and the Prince of Wales, the comments that Harry made about their wives, about Camilla and Kate, I think were the most hurtful for the royal family.

latest label that was just added before Margaret Mitchell’s 1936 novel “Gone With The Wind.”It says that the old book, which was made into a huge 1939 movie, amounts to a “romanticization of a shocking era in our history and the horrors of slavery.” Um, duh! It’s a Civil War story that’s pro-Confederacy.A more useful trigger warning I’d throw in front of “Gone With The Wind,” however, is: “This book is 1,472 pages long.” In fact, books, movies and TV shows almost never begin with a trigger warning that could actually help me make a decision.
