King Charles is said to have pleaded with his two sons Prince William and Prince Harry telling them 'don't make my final years a misery', according to extracts taken from the Duke of Sussex's upcoming memoir Spare.
The book, which is published on Tuesday, 10th January, reportedly details the meeting between King Charles and his two sons Prince William and Harry in April 2021 - after the funeral of Prince Philip.
According to reports, Prince Harry described how the King, whose official title was Prince Charles at the time, stood between him and his brother William “looking up at our flushed faces” before telling them, “Please, boys,” Harry quotes his father as saying. “Don’t make my final years a misery.”
The extract was published in the Guardian, who “amid stringent pre-launch security around the book, obtained a copy”.
The bombshell book, which also details claims that Prince William 'knocked' Prince Harry 'to the floor' following an argument at Nottingham Cottage, is expected to push Charles to take 'drastic action' following its release.
