Harry will read the unabbreviated audio edition of "Spare" himself, to be released on the same date.

According to a report by Mirror, a spokesman for the publisher stated that the book takes readers immediately back to one of the most anticipated images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s casket as the world watched in pain and horror.

Meanwhile, PEOPLE stated in a report that although a large part of Harry's memoir was written before the Queen's death, it is confirmed that he will acknowledge her death in the book.

In the book, Harry's author biography defines him as a husband, father, humanitarian, military veteran, mental wellness advocate, and environmentalist. He lives in Santa Barbara, California, with his family and three dogs. The Sussexes relocated to Meghan's home state in 2020 after stepping back as working members of the Royal Family. They have a three-year-old son Archie Harrison, and a one-year-old daughter Lilibet Diana.
