John Lennon’s son Sean blasts ‘idiot’ Prince Harry’s ‘Spare’ memoir in belated review
“My long awaited review of Prince Harry’s autobiography is two words. ‘Spare Me,’” the musician, 48, joked via X on Wednesday.
When fellow social media users came to the 39-year-old royal’s defense, Sean doubled — and tripled — down on his negative review.
“I do empathize with him generally. But the way he whines and wangs on about things is really too much,” he wrote on Thursday. “I’m just having a little fun. I think he’s earned some mockery. (I’m sure I have as well).”
When one fan wrote that writing “Spare” took “courage,” Lennon joked that the particular memento about Harry’s frostbitten penis “certainly” did.
The songwriter noted that while he is “aware” of what he and the Duke of Sussex have in common, he considers Harry an “idiot” and a “buffoon.”
He tweeted, “I do [empathize with him]. … [That’s] why I’m very disappointed with his outlook. I was hoping he’d be smarter.”
Sean also clapped back at claims that he “based his whole life on his father’s success,” pointing out that he “did win an Oscar this year” and is doing “OK” for himself.
He shrugged off a troll calling him “the spare Lennon,” replying, “If you say so.”
