Prince Harry denies 'boasting' about Taliban kills and hits out at memoir 'spin'

Prince Harry has strenuously denied claims that he 'boasted' about the number of Taliban he killed while serving in the British Army and has hit out at the "dangerous" spin about his memoir.

The Duke of Sussex, whose tell-all book Spare was published on Tuesday, has come under fire after claiming to have taken out more than two dozen enemies during two tours of Afghanistan.

Protests were sparked by Spare, which on Tuesday became the UK’s fastest selling non-fiction book, due to Harry writing he had engaged in “the taking of human lives” while serving as a helicopter pilot.
