Prince Harry's upcoming bombshell memoir has the short yet very telling title of Spare.
The title is a direct link to Harry's status as a second-born son, his place in the line of succession and references the phrase “the heir and the spare" - being the child or children behind the sibling destined to one day inherit a throne.
And across the royal families of Europe, there are many second-born 'spares' like Harry, whose royal paths are less clear than their older brothers or sisters.
