Harry Plans to Write "At Least One" New Bonus Chapter for the Paperback Version of 'Spare'

The metaphorical dust is still in the process of settling in the wake of Prince Harry's atomic bomb of a memoir, Spare, but more royal family bombs are reportedly being loaded into the arsenal already.
While Harry is reportedly sticking to his promise not publish the ~400 pages of "unforgivable" content he says he cut from the first draft of his memoir, Page Six's royal ~sources~ says that more Spare *is* coming in the form of a brand new chapter (or possibly multiple chapters) for the paperback edition.
"Prince Harry is already planning to add at least one new chapter… to the paperback version… out later this year or early next, when the hard cover sales have ended," the unnamed insider said.
Don't expect Harry to share any new stories from his past in the updates, though. The Page Six source hinted that any bonus chapters for Spare's paperback run would focus on very recent events in Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle's, lives, saying, "readers are eager to know [Harry and Meghan’s] feelings about the royal backlash they have suffered after the airing of their Netflix doc, and the publication of Spare."
As intriguing as this Spare intel is, it's still definitely just gossip at this point. When Page Six tried to get some on-the-record verification of the claims, they hit multiple walls. Harry's publisher, Random House, apparently fully ignored comment requests and his rep denied the rumor all together (and "huffily" so, according to Page Six), writing in an email, "That's not true."
During the press tour promoting Spare, Harry didn't shy away from admitting that he had plenty more he *could* say about his experiences in royal life. He told The Telegraph that Spare could have easily been two books (which is just objectively true, since the first draft of the book was literally twice as long as the version the world got to read), but he also seemed very firm about keeping a lot of the omitted anecdotes private.
"There are some things that have happened, especially between me and my brother, and to some extent between me and my father, that I just don’t want the world to know," he explained. "Because I don’t think they would ever forgive me."
