Royal tensions rise as Duke of Sussex prepares for another headline-making move
Harry is once again set to make headlines with the upcoming release of the paperback edition of his controversial autobiography Spare, which will hit US bookshelves on October 22 and UK stores on October 24. The release comes during King Charles’s important royal tour of Australia, adding fresh tensions between the Duke and the royal family.
A source close to the royal family told Express UK that the King and Queen are focusing on their duties and have little concern about Harry’s latest book release. “It’s business as usual for the King and Queen during this tour, and they don’t want any distraction from Harry’s book. It’s insignificant to them at this point,” the insider stated.
The source also noted that King Charles is determined for the Australian visit to be a success and remains unfazed by any potential controversies linked to Harry’s memoir. "This tour is of utmost importance to the monarch, and he has set aside other matters to ensure its success."
However, some royal experts have warned Harry that any new actions taken against the royal family could backfire, particularly as public focus shifts to the King’s engagements in Australia.
Tensions were further heightened when King Charles faced protests during his visit to Australia’s Parliament House, where a demonstrator interrupted his speech. Despite the heckling, the monarch is continuing with his tour, underscoring his commitment to his role and duties during this significant trip.
