After doing minimal press for his explosive tell-all "Spare," Prince Harry is now acknowledging the backlash he has received to his book as he aims to reset the conversation.

"I certainly don’t see myself as a victim," the Duke of Sussex told psychotherapist Dr. Gabor Maté in a discussion for Random House.

"I’m really grateful to be able to share my story in the hope that it will help, empower, encourage others. . . . And hopefully, let people understand that again, back to this human experience that we all in some shape or form, [are] all connected, especially through trauma," he added.

"I do not and I have never looked for sympathy in this," the prince reiterated.
