More than 100 copies of the Duke of Sussex’s memoir have been abandoned by holidaymakers abroad so far this summer.

On The Beach, the online tour operator, said that it received discarded copies of Spare from the myriad resorts it works within Spain, Turkey and Greece.

Zoe Harris, the company’s chief customer officer, said that the team had “never witnessed anything quite like it”.

Britons enjoying their European getaways have reportedly been seen either leaving the Duke’s autobiography by the poolside, shelving it in receptions and rooms, or tossing it into beachside bins by the dozen.
