is said to have “moved on” from after he made the “conscious” decision not to promote the paperback edition of his bombshell memoir, a royal expert has claimed.
The Duke of Sussex since 2020, when he stepped down as a senior working royal and moved to the US. Since then, his relationship with the royals has deteriorated even more after a series of bombshell claims he made against them in interviews, his show with wife and his memoir, Spare.
Spare was released in January 2023 and became an international bestseller after selling 1.4 million copies on its first day in the UK, US, and Canada, according to its publisher, Penguin Random House.
However, its paperback edition, released on October 24 this year, in its first week of publication and another 3,391 the week after, according to the Bookseller. The new edition features no new material, and Harry has not promoted it through interviews.

Now royal expert Jennie Bond praised the duke for his stance and said that it could be his his way of “moving on from all the bitterness.”
She told : “I don’t think he will be particularly upset about this. He made an awful lot of money from the original contract and, whatever he says, he is already a very wealthy man.”
The expert claimed that Harry’s decision to release a memoir had more to do with the fact the duke wanted to tell his story, rather than boost his income.
She explained: “I don’t think his decision to write Spare was ever a predominantly financial decision.
“I think he really wanted the world to know how he felt about his life, his family and the way he felt the Palace treated him.”

Ms Bond added that Harry’s “conscious decision” to not add any new material in the paperback edition could forge a new path in his relationship with the royals.
She said: “I think he has made a conscious decision to move on from all the bitterness and had no interest in dredging up more stories for the paperback.
“That has to be a good decision for everyone involved.”
