King Charles and the royals are determined to avoid the publication of another "rage-filled" memoir from a family member after Prince Harry's tell-all "Spare," according to royal expert Christopher Andersen. "The King" author told Fox News Digital that the book, which was released in January and contained bombshell revelations about the royals, may have permanently damaged the 38-year-old Duke of Sussex's relationship with his family. "There's no question that Harry's tell-all memoir was a bitter pill for the royal family to swallow, especially for Charles and William," Andersen said.
He continued, "Harry's takedown of his brother, who comes off in the book as something of a bully, was not only personally wounding but also threatened to tarnish William and Kate [Middleton's] pristine image." "Fortunately for the new Prince and Princess of Wales, polls show they're more popular than ever.
But that doesn't mean William isn't holding a profound grudge against Harry. As things stands now, the rift looks permanent." For most of their lives, William and Harry appeared to share a close relationship after enduring a number of hardships at a young age, including their parents' highly-publicized divorce and the death of their mother, Princess Diana.
William was 15 and Harry was 12 when Diana died in a car crash at the age of 36 in August 1997. In "Spare," Harry referred to William as his "beloved brother and arch-nemesis" and described their relationship as more complicated than it had appeared on the surface.
