'We're sick of Prince Harry's whine tour!' American media reacts to Spare PR push... as Fox calls it the 'final nail in the coffin' while Daily Beast slams his attempt to blame Wills and Kate for Nazi uniform as 'extraordinary'

American media has reacted with disdain to Prince Harry's ongoing PR push to promote his new book Spare, with some outlets labeling it a 'whine tour' while experts say it's the 'final nail in the coffin' for his relationship with his family. Harry's memoir was not due to be officially published until Tuesday, in a coordinated, worldwide release, but some Spanish publishers jumped the gun and released the book today, sparking an unplanned feeding frenzy.

Early translations of that version of the book along with excerpts obtained by The Guardian and Page Six reveal that Harry uses the book to renew and recharge his attacks on his brother, Prince William, and his wife Kate. Harry will appear in two interviews this weekend - one on ITV in the UK and another on CBS in America - and he also sat down with ABC's Michael Strahan for a third interview to air on Monday morning.

Where there was once sympathy for Harry and Meghan among American media outlets, there now appears to be exhaustion and skepticism.

I wonder if this is all just made up PR nonsense. They're getting $$ and attention they wouldn't have otherwise. To me this is some Brit version of the Kardashians, with swords and uniforms and fancy hats and stuff.

So now we know! Harry hasn't only recently become small-minded, spoiled, jealous, narcissistic and enraged at his brother for merely existing. He's ALWAYS been that way

Here's a bit of wisdom that has clearly escaped Prince Harry: Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt. Now that we're all getting an early look at his memoir 'Spare' - released first in Spain, so these quotes are translations - no doubt remains: The Harry we have come to know, the Duke of Dishonor and Disgrace, is just that petty. For all his name-calling and score settling (William pushed me!), no one in these pages looks worse than Harry himself. No slight is too slight to go unrecorded: William took the better bedroom at Balmoral, the bigger one with a view. 'My half was smaller and less luxurious,' our fallen prince writes, because - wait for it - 'Willy was the Heir, while I was the Spare.' We know. We got the memo long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away.

If Big Willy really did push Little Harold over (and break his necklace) one can understand why

My favourite new revelation is that Prince William physically attacked him following a row over Meghan's alleged rudeness to staff, making Harry 'scared', breaking his 'necklace' and causing him to fall onto a dog bowl. What? Rather than a robust disagreement between two expensively educated military veterans, Willy v Harold sounds like a catfight between two big girlies scrapping outside the St Trinian's dorms over a lipstick. This showdown was less of a rumble in the jungle and more of a little light bitchin' in the Nott Cott kitchen. 'The dog bowl cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me,' wails Harry in his autobiography, Spare. He ended up, he notes, with 'scrapes and bruises'.

Prince Harry could be barred from the US and has put visa 'at risk' after his admission he has taken drugs

Prince Harry could be barred from the US and has put visa 'at risk' after admitting about his illicit drug usage, immigration experts have warned. The Duke of Sussex, 38, confessed to doing cocaine, smoking cannabis and taking hallucinogenic mushrooms in his upcoming memoir.

Typical applicants would be denied a visa over their history with illegal substances, but US authorities note entry into the country is granted on a 'case-by-case' basis. It is unclear if Harry, who moved to California with his wife Meghan Markle in 2020, detailed his drug use on his visa application. Immigration experts warn that if he 'lied' about his past, the Duke could have his visa revoked.

In his new autobiography 'Spare', Harry revealed that he first took cocaine on a shooting weekend at age 17. He did a 'few more lines' on other occasions. The one hard-partier also admitted to hallucinating during a celebrity-filled event in California and smoking cannabis after his first date with Meghan.

Most applicants with a history of drug use would be denied American visas, however immigration decisions are made on a 'case-by-case' basis, The Sunday Times reported.

US immigration rules state an individual's 'current and/or past actions, such as drug or criminal activities, may make the applicant ineligible for a visa'.

'My family helped to drive out Meghan': Harry launches extraordinary new attack on the Royal family, branding them 'abusers' who planted stories to rehabilitate their own reputations in ITV tell-all to promote his memoir

Prince Harry tonight dramatically accuses his family of 'getting into bed with the devil' to rehabilitate their image and insists they have 'shown no willingness to reconcile'. In his first primetime television interview promoting his controversial memoir, the Duke suggests other senior royals had sought to burnish their reputation 'to the detriment' of him and Meghan. He tells ITV's Tom Bradby he loves his father Charles and brother the Prince of Wales, but says: 'At the moment, I don't recognise them, as much as they probably don't recognise me.' Harry also says Meghan and Kate 'never got on' and suggests his wife was the victim of 'stereotyping' from members of his family due to her being an 'American, biracial actress'.

Harry faces backlash for denying calling royals 'racist': Duke is accused of 'hanging his family out to dry' by 'failing to correct narrative' after he and Meghan told Oprah of 'concerns' about Archie's skin colour - amid calls to return anti-racism award

The Duke of Sussex last night denied calling the Royal Family racist but said they were guilty of 'unconscious bias' while discussing Meghan's controversial claim to Oprah that an unnamed royal had expressed 'concern' about what colour skin their son Archie might have as a bi-racial child. In an incendiary interview to plug his new memoir , Harry confirmed to ITV journalist and old friend Tom Bradby that a remark had been made but refused to name the individual concerned, prompting a worldwide guessing game and leading his estranged brother, Prince William, to publicly remark they were 'very much not a racist family'. Elsewhere, ex-BBC Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond told ITV's Lorraine: 'So much of what he said seemed conflicted and contradictory... he allowed his family to be hung out to dry on an accusation of racism which Harry says now he never said and wasn't true. That in my view is almost unforgivable.' And ITV News's Royal Editor Chris Ship said on Good Morning Britain: 'Harry is right to say [they] didn't use the word ''racist'' at any point... [but] Harry didn't correct the narrative when this whole racism row then started, and not correcting the narrative is something he accused the Royal Family of not doing, when he criticised Jeremy Clarkson and other things as well.'

Dirty bomb fears as 'several kilos of URANIUM' is found in cargo at Heathrow: Package 'shipped from Pakistan to UK-based Iranians' is at centre of Met Police anti-terror probe after being discovered when it triggered airport alarms

A major counter-terrorism investigation has been launched after several kilograms of uranium was seized at Heathrow airport. The deadly nuclear material - which could potentially be used in a ‘dirty bomb’ - arrived on a flight from Oman, in the Middle East, on December 29.

The shipment was addressed to an Iranian-linked firm in the UK, it is understood. Sources said the uranium was ‘not weapons-grade’ - and so could not be used to manufacture a thermo-nuclear weapon. But the security services are understood to be investigating whether the undeclared package could have been destined for an improvised nuclear device, known as a ‘dirty bomb’.

Such a device - which has long been a nightmare scenario for counter-terror experts - combines conventional explosives with nuclear material to disperse a lethal radioactive plume. The package originated in Pakistan before arriving at Heathrow’s Terminal Four aboard an Oman Air passenger jet from Muscat, sources told The Sun.

Did Biden give the order to destroy Putin's Nord Stream pipeline after Ukraine invasion? Bombshell report claims Navy divers carried out mission to kill Russia's gas stranglehold on Europe in audacious mission overseen by president

Specialized U.S. Navy diving teams carried out the bombing attack against the underwater Nord Stream pipelines which supply Russian gas to western Europe during a top secret mission overseen by President Joe Biden, a bombshell report claims.

Divers planted C4 explosives on three Nord Stream pipelines in June 2022 which were detonated three months later using a sonar buoy which broadcast a signal that triggered the bombs, according to the report.

The attack was carried out in response to Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine and designed to force Germany and other European nations to end their reliance on Russian gas, it is claimed. The move would also disrupt Moscow's income from gas sales - which have contributed billions of dollars to its war effort.

The sensational report by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh, published to his Substack, cites a source 'with direct knowledge of the operational planning' behind the alleged plot. The White House and the CIA flatly rejected the report on Wednesday, branding it 'complete fiction'.

Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines were sabotaged by bomb blasts on September 26 2022 in an attack that, ostensibly, continues to baffle investigators. While analysts say the immediate impact of the attack was 'limited' - because the pipelines were not fully operational - the geopolitical consequences were huge.

South Park savages Meghan and Harry as ‘dumb and stupid’ Prince and Princess who scream ‘we want privacy’ during tour promoting his book ‘Waaagh’ (and even mentions his frostbitten blue penis)


South Park took aim at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on Wednesday night with an episode depicting the Prince and Princess of Canada - a young royal couple who loudly beg for privacy, while drawing attention to themselves. The red-headed prince and his floppy-hatted wife are seen promoting the prince's book - Waaagh - whose cover strongly resembles Harry's memoir Spare. They storm off a TV show after being challenged about their motives. The couple then move to South Park, with the princess declaring: 'If we moved here, people would think we're really serious about wanting to be normal.' But their arrival enrages the local community - in particular Kyle, who lives opposite. He complains about their private jet parked outside the house, loud 'privacy party' out in the drive, and the prince playing polo on the lawn.The pair hang banners above their house demanding privacy, and hold loud parties on their lawn with fireworks. "Why are we so mad today? Because we want our privacy!" the prince shouts. When the prince begins playing polo on the lawn, smashing Kyle's window, the South Park local can take it no more. He rants to his school friends: "The prince plays drums all day - I don't even think he has a job. She just seems to boss him around. Why did they even leave Canada anyway?"

Getting ready to watch this episode of South Park...

...

Hallelujah South Park! Will their delicious take-down of privacy-hungry Harry & Meghan FINALLY make them see what insufferable hypocrites - and global laughing stocks - they've become?

Well, she said she wanted to be a cartoon princess. Now she is one, thanks to the brilliant minds at 'South Park.' In 'Worldwide Privacy Tour,' which aired Wednesday night, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were savaged as hypocritical publicity hounds who nonetheless demand to be left alone. After promoting his memoir, here called 'Waaagh,' the 'prince and princess of Canada' move to South Park, whose children cannot abide their insufferability. At one point, the outraged prince flashes his frostbitten penis while defending his wife and demanding 'privacy!' It was a perfect episode. The only criticism one could possibly have: What took Trey Parker and Matt Stone so long? Granted, it seems every week brings a brand new hypocrisy. It's hard to keep up.

Meghan Markle 'has been upset and overwhelmed by her depiction on South Park for DAYS' after it described her as 'sorority girl, actress, influencer, victim' in scathing episode

Insiders claim Meghan Markle has been left 'upset and overwhelmed' at how she and Prince Harry are depicted in an episode of South Park. The episode, titled 'World Privacy Tour' pokes fun at the couple's grievances, while Meghan is introduced cuttingly as a "sorority girl, actress, influencer, victim," by another character. The satirical series ridiculed the couple's demands for privacy while on a publicity blitz for the prince's autobiography 'Waaaah' - a jibe at Harry's recent memoir Spare - in last week's brutal episode. The source added that the Duchess of Sussex 'is annoyed by South Park but refuses to watch it all.'
