Prince Harry has revealed the origins of his rather harsh nickname 'spare'. The Duke of Sussex's moniker left royal enthusiasts worldwide taken aback.In an excerpt from his tell all memoir Spare, Prince Harry delved into his relationship with his father, King Charles, disclosing that it was him who bestowed the nickname upon him in response to Princess Diana giving birth to a second son.Harry recalled his father's words as: "Wonderful!
Now you've given me an heir and a spare - my work is done."The Guardian newspaper highlighted Prince Harry's longstanding resentment towards his nickname, which he expressed in Spare.
The newspaper stated: "Harry's resentment of being the 'spare' is the underlying theme of his book, through chapters on his childhood, his schooling, his career as a royal and in the British Army, his relationship with his parents and brother, and his life with Meghan through courtship, wedding and marriage, to their own experience of parenthood."In the wake of King Charles' cancer diagnosis being made public earlier this year, Prince Harry flew over from LA for a brief 30-minute meeting with his father before he commenced treatment, despite ongoing tensions.
Prince William and Kate are also said to be keen to mend their rift with Harry and wife Meghan Markle, a source suggests. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's ties with the Royal Family have been tense, and they remain distant from the Prince and Princess of Wales, reports the Mirror.
