Is Prince Harry’s ‘Spare’ Beginning of the End for the Monarchy? (Episode 044)

Prince Harry has set a record with his tell-all memoir Spare. The English-language version sold more than 1.4 million copies on launch day.

Penguin Random House, the prince’s publisher, said first full day sales of Spare represent the largest first-day sales total for any nonfiction book the company has ever published. Keep in mind that Penguin Random House is the world’s largest trade publisher, so that says a lot.

But did Harry’s memoir cross the line by revealing the underbelly of a family feud and, particularly what he describes as a troubled relationship with his brother William, heir to the throne?

This is Jennifer LeClaire, and this is Praying the News. On today’s broadcast, we’ll look at the impact of Prince Harry’s book. Is this the beginning of the end of the monarchy?
