Prince Harry’s memoir: why has the ‘Spare’ gone rogue? – podcast

Since the Guardian’s Martin Pengelly exclusively reported on the contents of Prince Harry’s memoir, the revelations have kept coming. In his book and the interviews publicising its release, he explains everything from the fact he believes his family’s dealings with the press are like a pact with the devil to how it feels to be the “spare” to the heir.

But what was Prince Harry’s motive and what do all these details really tell us about Britain’s most famous institution? Caroline Davies helps Nosheen Iqbal sift the serious from the salacious, while Zoe Williams explains why the treatment of Harry and Meghan by the UK media really matters.
