Prince Harry has reportedly extended a “peace token” to the Royal Family by deciding not to make any changes or additions to the upcoming paperback edition of his memoir, Spare. According to former BBC royal correspondent Michael Cole, this move is seen as an attempt to mend fences with his family after the release of the original version stirred controversy.

The paperback edition of Spare is set to be released without any new content or redactions. Cole, speaking on GB News, suggested that this decision might be Harry’s way of showing remorse and seeking forgiveness from the Royal Family. He stated, “He hasn’t added new chapters or written a preface or afterword to increase and renew the anguish which he has caused his family by these revelations.”

Cole believes this could be Harry’s subtle way of extending an olive branch to his family. He added, “I think that is a bit of a peace feeler. It’s a bit of a token. Maybe it’s his way of saying, ‘I’m very sorry – I would like to be forgiven a bit’.” Despite this, Cole remains skeptical about the possibility of Harry returning to perform minor royal duties, noting that the chances of this happening are “between slim and none.”

There are also claims that Harry is reconsidering his approach to public life and may be seeking a quieter, more low-key presence. According to a source cited by The Mail on Sunday, Harry is reportedly turning away from Hollywood publicists and seeking advice from his old friends and associates in the UK. The source suggested that Harry may be attempting to reconnect with the British public by making a quiet return and attending low-profile events.

The speculation around Harry’s intentions comes amidst ongoing reports of his desire to reconnect with the UK and his royal duties in some capacity. A friend of Harry’s mentioned, “He could prove himself and win over the British public again” if he returns without fanfare and avoids the spotlight.
While the future of Prince Harry’s relationship with the Royal Family remains uncertain, his decision regarding the paperback edition of Spare could be interpreted as a step towards reconciliation. The coming months may reveal more about his plans and whether this gesture will be received positively by both his family and the public.
