published 6 January 2023

Prince Harry's memoir Spare may be coming out on Jan. 10, but it was leaked to several media outlets this week, with alleged revelations popping up seemingly every minute.

While last week one royal expert estimated that the Royal Family were not "terrified" but "wearied" about the book's release, that stance may have changed now that we have an inkling of just how much the Duke of Sussex has chosen to reveal in his magnum opus.

How come people have already read 'Spare'?

While the book has been fiercely guarded ahead of its release, it appears to have been leaked to several outlets, including the Guardian, Page Six and Us Weekly.

Based on a clip from Prince Harry's upcoming Good Morning America interview, it looks like the journalists who interviewed the prince also got to read an advance copy before sitting down with him.

Last but not least, booksellers in Spain mistakenly displayed the Spanish version of Spare on Jan. 5, where keen royal watchers and members of the press were able to get their hands on it before it was pulled from the shelves.

It will also be released in 15 additional languages: Spanish, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Portugal Portuguese, simplified Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Romanian, and Swedish.
