HARRY WINS NAME GAME FOR WRONG REASONS!

-

PRINCE HARRY’s upcoming memoir, Spare, is perfectly titled, but probably not for the reason he intended.

According to MerriamWeb­ster’s dictionary, spare’s

No. 1 definition is something “not being used, especially: held for emergency use,” and No. 2 is something that’s “over and above what is needed: superfluou­s.”

Both, of course, fit Harry, who, as the second royal son, is a reserve in case something happens to his older brother, William, the heir to the throne and future king.

Certainly, Harry grew up knowing he was a spare tire.

But did he have to end up being like that other reserve king, his uncle Prince Andrew? The Duke of York is a total disgrace after climbing in bed with the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his madam Ghislaine Maxwell, now in the slammer for sex traffickin­g little girls.

While Andrew has denied any wrongdoing, he settled a lawsuit with Virginia Giuffre, a former teenage Epstein sex slave who claims she was forced to bed the royal — who was 41 at the time.

While Harry’s not as sleazy as Uncle Andy, he still managed to become a disgrace.

That brings us to the fifth meaning of spare, “not abundant or plentiful” and includes the synonyms “sparse, skimpy, meager.”

These basically describe what Harry turned out to be — a lightweigh­t who is so “scant” he ended up marrying B-list actress Meghan and letting her convince him to dump his royal ties and become a public whiner and crybaby.

Meghan apparently had big plans for using Harry and their royal celebrity to cash in in America. But the pushy pair have worn out their welcome by publicly trashing the royal family and their phonybalon­ey attempts to be woke and leaders of the people as they crusade for environmen­tal causes while flying in private jets.

But it gets worse.

Meghan visited a poor Black school in Harlem wearing designer duds and dripping with jewels — something William’s wife, Kate — a future queen — would never do.

So probably without realizing it, Harry has rightly named his memoir, due out Jan. 10, Spare.

Instead of being a man of substance, Harry has sadly turned out to be “sparse” and “meager” — definitely “spare.”
