THE revelations from Prince Harry’s autobiography have encouraged the UK public to reflect on their own traumas and bury them down deep forever.
Whether reading Spare for themselves or picking up the worst bits online, people say they have a new appreciation for the famous British quality of completely repressing your feelings.
Spare reader Josh Hudson said: “I had a difficult relationship with my family growing up and I thought it might be time to start sharing my vulnerabilities with my mates. But now? No f**king chance.
“Prince Harry’s memoir has really underlined the fact that revealing your intimate thoughts and emotions is a terrible idea that should be avoided at all costs. No one wants to know the gory details of your humiliating first shag. Save it for the therapist you’re lucky enough to be able to afford one.
“And my girlfriend is completely disturbed by the bit about him thinking of his dead mum while applying moisturiser to his frostbitten penis. She says it totally ruined Elizabeth Arden products for her.
“If he really wanted to make things better with his dad and brother he should have done what I do: ignore the problem and sit in silence in front of the footie.”
