When is the Prince Harry memoir being released? Here's what you need to know about his tell-all
'I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become'

Everyone's looking to get their hands on a copy of the Prince Harry memoir, Spare.
Following the release of the Harry and Meghan Netflix series—full of revelations and personal accounts of the Duke and Duchess' journey—comes a highly-anticipated tell-all that's expected to fly off the shelves.
Naturally, this has piqued global interest, especially given Prince Harry's rocky relationship with the royal family. He claims to have taken on this project with a goal: to provide a "firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful," according to a press release from the book's publisher, Penguin Random House.
His statement continues, "I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story—the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned—I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think."

Spare—which will also be available in audio format and released in 16 languages—will take a look back at the Duke of Sussex's childhood, his time in the military and his current life as a husband and father, which is sure to include his controversial exit from the royal family in 2020.
In true Harry fashion, he's set on giving back, as portion of the proceeds from the book will be going towards charity: two donations of $1.5m (£1.3m) and £300,000 respectively to the charities Sentebale and WellChild, according to BBC.
"I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become," he stated.
The memoir is currently available for pre-order online and will hit shelves on January 10, 2023.
