Prince Harry’s new book is revenge for William always having it better than him and being left as the spare heir

HOW many more times is Prince Harry going to attack the royal family, while clinging on to all the best bits of it?

After telling his story in Finding Freedom, spilling the beans to Oprah Winfrey – twice – now he is writing his ‘literary memoir', whatever that is.

When they left for America, Harry and Meghan said to the Queen that they would not use the monarchy to make money.

That has gone completely down the drain and they won’t be stopped.

Harry doesn’t care how hypocritical he has become.

If the other members of the royal family object to this latest book it will just give him grounds to complain again.

Fed up with being spare

Prince Harry wants to come to Britain next year for the Platinum Jubilee when the Queen will have been on the throne for 70 years.

But is he just coming to get publicity for his book, which will be out a month or two later?

You get suspicious when you think you can’t trust somebody.

And you certainly can’t trust Harry because he leaks things.

Why is he writing a book?

The only thing I can think of is that he wants revenge. He is fed up with being the spare to the heir.

Always second place

Brother William always had things better than him.

Wills would go to tea with his great gran, the Queen Mother, for early lessons on how to be a monarch but Harry wasn’t allowed to go.

His big brother got better results than him at school and he always had to take second place and Meghan pointed out to him that this was not on.

Prince Harry and his wife know they can score a huge number of points by opening up and saying all sorts of private things about the royals.

And Harry now sees that he is winning by spouting nasty distasteful comments about his family.

But he has left the royal family. He has got the freedom he wanted.

He has a woman he dotes on. His whole aim in life is to make her happy.

They have two children – one boy, one girl – loads of money coming in, a huge house with 16 bathrooms. Move on.
