Prince Harry publishes this Tuesday a new book, "The Substitute", which will be distributed worldwide and translated into fifteen languages.

A publication that revives the news around the royal family.

In London, the British interviewed by Europe 1 share their opinions, between weariness and enthusiasm.

The British people hooked on the news of the royal family.

This Tuesday, Prince Harry's book

The Substitute

will be published worldwide and translated into 15 languages.

In this book, he first devotes himself to introspection before talking about the family circle, his brother whom he quickly sees as a rival, and Queen Elizabeth II in particular.

This book, presented as explosive by the country's press, succeeds the documentary

Harry and Meghan

available on the Netflix platform, and which has already caused a lot of ink to flow.

Pending the publication of the book, which will be printed in 200,000 copies in France, the British give their opinion at the microphone of Europe 1.

“I hope they will move on”

"I'm fed up, I'm tired of hearing about their family problems when we all have our own problems in our families", reacts a first passerby in London.

"I wish them good luck, but I just hope they move on," she breathes.

Shortly after, another Londoner shares his feeling.

"At first I thought I didn't care for this story. But if it leads to a deeper conversation about the royal family and the role of the monarchy, then it could be interesting," he says.

"Harry betrayed his family," asserts a woman, who regrets the timing of the release of this book.

"I think it's bad for the image of the royal family. They're going through a period of transition with the new king, and the timing of these revelations is really horrific."

Londoners therefore divided on the publication of this new work on the royal family.
