Sean Ono Lennon's Scathing Review of Prince Harry's 'Spare': 'Spare Me'

John Lennon's son, Sean Ono Lennon, has taken to social media to share his harsh criticism of Prince Harry's memoir, 'Spare.' Lennon summed up his review in two words: 'Spare Me.'

John Lennon's son, Sean Ono Lennon, has joined the chorus of voices criticizing Prince Harry's controversial memoir, 'Spare.' In a series of tweets, Lennon shared his thoughts on the book, which details Harry's upbringing, his relationship with the royal family, and his decision to step down from his official duties.

Lennon's review was brief but pointed, as he summed it up in two words: 'Spare Me.' This pithy comment conveys his disdain for the book, indicating that he finds it unnecessary and tedious. Lennon's dismissal is particularly significant given his own experiences as the son of a famous and influential figure.

In addition to his terse review, Lennon also engaged with followers who responded to his comments. One person suggested that Lennon, as the 'spare' to Julian Lennon, could relate to Harry's experiences. Lennon responded with a mischievous, 'If you say so,' indicating that he does not share Harry's perspective.

Another follower defended Harry's memoir, stating that it took 'courage' to write. Lennon countered this argument with a humorous reference to Harry's account of having frostbite on his genitals, saying, 'The todger story certainly took some courage.'

Lennon's comments have drawn mixed reactions. Some people have come to Harry's defense, while others have applauded Lennon's wit. However, Lennon has maintained his stance, stating that he has met Harry in the past but found him to be 'an idiot.'

Despite the controversy surrounding his tweets, Lennon has also expressed empathy for Harry's experiences. He acknowledges that both Harry and himself have lost parents young and tragically. However, he remains critical of Harry's 'whining and wangling,' emphasizing that Harry's actions are ultimately his own responsibility.

Lennon went on to compare Harry to his brother, Prince William, who has been portrayed as the 'Golden Child' in contrast to Harry's 'Spare' status. Lennon expressed sadness at this dynamic but emphasized that Harry's 'stupidity' is his own doing.

In a subsequent tweet, Lennon clarified that his initial review was mostly meant as a joke. He acknowledged that he and Harry share many common experiences, but it is Harry's 'stupidity' that bothers him.

Despite his criticism, Lennon also acknowledged Harry's success, stating that he has a bestseller in 2023, while Lennon himself has not sold anything close to that. However, Lennon pointed out that he won an Oscar this year for his animated short film, 'War Is Over,' inspired by his parents' music.

Lennon's comments on Prince Harry's memoir have sparked a lively debate on social media. His wit and candor have made him a popular figure in the ongoing discussion about the book and the issues it raises.
