There is a saying that the chameleon can change its colors but it can’t change its behavior. This proverb is so true regarding the British Royal Family, going by a newly-released expose.The man who has, finally, brought the dignity of the British royalty under ridicule is Prince Harry, an insider with royal blue blood. This daring man with brown hair has lifted the lid on the jealously guarded secrets of the British Monarchy.
Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, is the embattled son of King Charles III. He is the second son of the king born to the world-celebrated, effervescent, and ebullient Diana Spencer who died with her boyfriend in a suspicious car crash in France in 1997, after having divorced Prince Charles. From Diana Princess of Wales, Charles who was then Prince of Wales, got two sons, Willy and Harry.

I could hardly put down the book that was released on January 10, 2023 after dropping everything in order to critically read it. For the first time in my life, I read about the mysterious and safely guarded core of the British Empire, exposing the psychology of a criminal imperial body that ruled me. That ruled Kenya. That ruled Africa. That ruled other worlds. That acted as a human vampire out to live on the blood of the colonized, also in the name of the Almighty God of the Bible. Colonialists called us savages. It has taken us very long to realize they were the savages.
We were told wonderful things about British manners, British decency, and civilization which was God-fearing. We blessed the kingdom by singing the “God-save-OUR gracious-king, “and later on, “God-save-OUR gracious
-Queen,” anthem. We were made to believe the kingdom was governed by wisdom and the epitome of human dignity. But now here, my God, Prince Harry, is telling me the rotten side of the Empire, susceptible to corruption, vindictiveness, greed, lies, manipulations, racists, and only God-knows-what-else-in-British-broth! First-hand information!

In his memoirs titled Spare, the outrageously bitter Prince Harry has undressed the Monarchy before the world. He chose the title of his book from the rating that, if anything happened to King Charles III, Harry’s bigger brother, Prince William would be the King and – you never know – if the worst struck out of nowhere to take away Prince William, Prince Harry, would be the successor. He is the Spare King.
The book exposes Harry as a psychologically disturbed person, traumatized by the death of his mother, Diana. The death went into Harry’s bones and created havoc. The rebellious boy grew up refusing to believe that his mother had died. He wanted to believe she had gone into hiding somewhere from the menace of newspaper gangs after her soul. The mention of Mother Diana is spread out in the 410-page book, which tells his story of his growing up in the Palace and how, at the morning of his teenage, what impact the death of his mother had on him. He narrates how he tried helplessly to cope. He tells the story of his childhood, school times, nasty relationship between him and his brother with whom they had fought physically many times. Willy’s permanent belligerence is highlighted by his move to boxing Harry and sending him rolling on the ground even when the two were already married.

Born an extra sensitive child, even suspected to have been fathered by someone else because of his gingery looks, Harry’s biggest problem is in his search for his identity. He grew up feeling misunderstood and misplaced in the palace. In his attempt to be something else, he broke fences, annoyed his relatives, made his brother furious, met girlfriends and dropped them. He was given to drinking, smoking weed – anything – and a wish for fighting. He was fearless, most adventurous and didn’t fear death. Or he didn’t see why he should be alive. He needed psychiatric
treatment.
Prince Harry dropped the thought of going to university, and got trained as a fixed win-plane then a helicopter pilot. His ambition was to join the army and go to war to fight for the British, which he did in Afghanistan. When he was forced out of the army in fear of being the enemies’ target, he kept himself busy by traveling, going places – Lesotho, Botswana, South Africa, North Pole, South Pole, America, Germany, trying to kill his frustrations by drinking smoking and killing times with friends.

The elephant in the Palace came when he fell in love with Meghan, the daughter of a Whiteman and a Black woman, Doria. That was the greatest challenge to the integrity of the Palace, which regarded him as a race traitor. Both Harry and Meghan were plagued by media reporters. The Palace acted like white ants behind the wooden frame. They put not only a blind eye to the grave attacks that the media inflicted on Harry but secretly helped the media to manufacture the poison with which to destroy Meghan and finally give Harry a technical knockout.
The Palace was mad because Prince Harry had tainted the royal blue blood. He should pay heavily for that or get driven to throw away his wife who was being called anything by the media. Neither his father nor his brother nor the Queen nor anybody else, uttered a word against the press, making Harry feel betrayed and unwanted.

The heartbreaking story of his bitter relations with the Palace brings out vividly the hidden hypocrisy and impervious British hatred for the black skin indirectly saying the Blackman stinks. I don’t think fighting for his own rights by putting everything into a book, Prince Harry had any idea regarding the consequences of the book that is ghostwritten by J R Moehringer and published by Penguin Random House to the British Royalty.The book appears to have given Harry a weapon with which to attack the integrity of the United Kingdom.
The British Kingdom is naked, come and see! Prince Hurry, who has been robbed of every benefit by the British Government, lives in United States of America with his wife. I bet Spare, that is available in digital, paperback and hardcover formats with translations into 15 languages, is going to produce a blockbuster film.
