Prince Harry Admits ‘Some Members of My Family Will Never Forgive Me’ for Writing Spare
Prince Harry shared his hope for “reconciliation” with his family, but he also knows that it may not happen with every member.
The Duke of Sussex, 40, sat down for a landmark interview with BBC News on Friday, May 2, just hours after his loss in court over his security in the U.K., saying he was “gutted” by the decision not to change his downgraded status.

Harry said the matter over police protection has caused King Charles not to speak to him, adding that he “would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point in continuing to fight anymore.”
However, he added, “Of course, some members of my family will never forgive me for writing a book. Of course, they will never forgive me for…lots of things.”
Prince Harry penned a memoir, Spare, that was released in 2023. Speaking with PEOPLE upon the book’s release, he said, “I don’t want to tell anyone what to think of it and that includes my family. This book and its truths are in many ways a continuation of my own mental health journey. It’s a raw account of my life — the good, the bad and everything in between.”
Spare dove deep into Harry’s upbringing in the British royal family, his mother Princess Diana’s death, his relationship with Meghan Markle and his strained relationship with various members of the royal family, including his brother, Prince William.
In the book, the Duke of Sussex detailed a 2019 argument with his brother that he says turned physical. Harry claimed the dispute started when William called Meghan “difficult,” “rude” and “abrasive.” When Harry accused his brother of repeating a media narrative, more insults were exchanged and the situation escalated.
After getting William a glass of water, Harry wrote, “He set down the water, called me another name, then came at me. It all happened so fast. So very fast.”
“He grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor. I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me. I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out.”
Prince Harry traveled from his California home to London to attend the two-day appeal hearing on April 8 and 9, fighting for the restoration of state-funded security during visits to the U.K.
“This one has always mattered the most,” Harry told PEOPLE at the time.
In his BBC interview following the ruling, the Duke of Sussex said that he doesn’t find it possible to bring Meghan and their two children back to the U.K. safely.
He said, “A decision that was made, most likely — in fact, I know — to keep us under the roof. But then once they realized that wasn’t going to work, once they realized that myself, my wife, my kids are happier outside of the institution, then please just look at the facts. Look at the risk, look at the threat, look at the impact that if anything was to happen to me, my wife or my father’s grandchildren, if anything was to happen to them, look where the responsibility lies.”
