In a wide-ranging interview with The Telegraph, Prince Harry said that despite the current ample tensions, the royal family may thank him for writing his explosive confessional book, Spare, in the future.

According to journalist Bryony Gordon, Harry accepts that reconciliation is unlikely at this point, but he has not closed the door to the future.

"What I've found is that I don't make friends, especially within my family. So even if they don't like me in the moment, they might appreciate me five or ten years from now."

The book fills 416 pages with shocking facts about the royal family, from Harry's one-sided physical relationship with his brother Prince William to Queen Camilla's "dangerous" campaign to restore her image. However, "despite the shocking claims, Prince Harry insists that his estranged family may one day be grateful for the exposure of the inner workings of the royal family and monarchy," the Independent reports.

While the bulk of the book is about other members of the royal family, much of it is, of course, about Harry himself, particularly the traumas he has faced, including the death of his mother in a car accident when he was 12 and his military service in Afghanistan.

"[Harry] seems to want his family to know that he is hurting," Dr. Lisa Turner, a trauma recovery specialist, tells The Independent. 'Hurt people hurt other people. They do so quite unconsciously. Their own wounds are so present that they cannot perceive the wounds of others."

Harry told The Telegraph that, despite what some may think, Spare "is not trying to bring down the monarchy - this is trying to save them from themselves.

"I know I will be criticized by many people [for saying this].

According to The Independent, "Spare" sold 1.4 million copies in the UK, US, and Canada on its release date last Tuesday, making it the fastest-selling non-fiction book in history.
