It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow-and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling-and how their lives would play out from that point on. I recalled one recent chat, just me and Grandpa, not long after he’d turned ninety-seven. He was thinking about the end. He was no longer capable of pursuing his passions, he said. And yet the thing he missed most was work. Without work, he said, everything crumbles. He didn’t seem sad, just ready.

You can't expect someone born into royalty to be anchored to reality, but this is a long monologue of his truth but an incomplete view and observations of the world. The anticipation surrounding the release of Prince Harry’s memoir has reached a fever-pitch unlike anything I can recall in recent memory. And as a listen, it delivers.but Harry absolutely slates his brother, and of course Prince William won't say anything so this is a complete one sided view where not once does he come close to thinking or saying he's done anything wrong...which of course is never the case. You know, before I read this book I saw a video on YouTube where a body language expert was saying Harry is a narcissist. Although, I'm no anglophile, I thought that was a bit harsh. Up to that point, of the relatively few times I had heard him speak; I never got that impression. When my new credits became available, I couldn't wait to find a title and, like a drunken sailor, I tripped over "Spare." With King Charles III's Coronation fast approaching, the spotlight is on theRoyal family once again. Ahead of the ceremony (and Bank Holiday) if you want to read-up on everything that's been happening in the last few years, you can now dive into every sordid detail without paying! That—and the fact that I was carrying her flag. I’d come to those gardens because I wanted peace. I wanted it more than anything. I wanted it for my family’s sake, and for my own—but also for hers.
