Prince Harry’s Bombshell Memoir Faces Backlash Over Request for Ex-Girlfriends’ Intimate Details
Prince Harry's highly anticipated memoir is once again making headlines, this time due to revelations that he reached out to his ex-girlfriends after being told his book needed more scandalous content.
Penguin Random House, the publisher of Harry's memoir titled “Spare,” reportedly informed the Duke of Sussex that the initial draft lacked spice, prompting him to desperately seek contributions from his close associates and former romantic partners.
These individuals were allegedly asked to divulge intimate details about Harry's personal life, including his relationships and upbringing.
Interestingly, some of the people approached by Prince Harry found his request quite ironic.
In the past, Harry had insisted that his inner circle maintain strict confidentiality regarding his private life and refrain from speaking to the media about him.
Consequently, former close associates were taken aback when they were suddenly asked to reveal the most intimate aspects of Harry's life.
One individual even expressed shock at the audacity of the request, considering they had been explicitly instructed not to engage with the media for years.
While friends and ex-girlfriends politely stated they would consider the proposal, the majority ultimately declined.
The irony of the situation was not lost on those who were approached.
Prince Harry had previously made it clear that he would be furious if any of his confidants ever spoke to the media.
However, now that he needed their assistance, he expected them to break their silence.
It remains unknown whether Chelsea Davy and Cressida Bowenus, both of whom had high-profile relationships with Prince Harry, were among the individuals contacted for the memoir.
As more details of Harry's memoir emerged, controversy surrounding the book intensified.
Karen Brady, a prominent figure with alleged ties to the royal family, expressed her concerns in a recent column for the Sun.
Brady criticized the promise of raw and unflinching honesty made by Harry, considering the already damaging revelations made by him and Meghan Markle.
While acknowledging that perspectives may differ, Brady's comments hinted at the potential impact of the memoir on the royal family and their advisors.
Karen Brady even suggested an alternative title for the publication, taking a swipe at Prince Harry's intentions.
She is not the first public figure to criticize Harry for his latest project, which appears to cast a negative light on his family.
PR expert and former spin doctor Amanda Plattel accused Harry of capitalizing on his personal grief.
Plattel further claimed that the memoir has irreparably damaged any remaining relationship between Harry and his brother and father.
With its 416 pages, Prince Harry's memoir is expected to make for an uncomfortable Christmas within the British royal family.
