Harry Clark: Staying Faithful: Winner of BBC One's THE TRAITORS
HARRY CLARK first caught the public's eye as the quick-thinking, cool-headed winner of The Traitors - outsmarting the competition while staying true to himself. Since then, his journey has taken him from tense reality TV moments to the reflective landscapes of Pilgrimage, revealing his resilience, humour, and the values that shape his life.
In Staying Faithful, Harry shares stories of his upbringing and family, Army challenges, sudden fame, and the Roman Catholic faith that keeps him grounded. Speaking to the growing number of young people embracing Christian belief - and to anyone seeking purpose or meaning - Harry offers encouragement, authenticity, and hope.
'As the train sped on to Scotland, it seemed that everything I'd ever learnt - in my childhood, through my family, in church, in school, in the Army, and even at my lowest moment, lying on that bed in hospital – had been preparing me for this moment. It felt like destiny. Maybe it wasn’t nerves that were making me shake. Maybe it was excitement.'
FROM THE CHAPTER 'THE PART I'

Is it what I’d normally read? No.
Did I agree with Harry’s ideas and decisions? No.
Did I enjoy reading the book? Massively so. This is a little gem - as someone who’s enjoyed the traitors, and reads widely, I was excited to read this book. Harry’s voice comes through - I was snickering on the tube and chuckling on the sofa as I read it. But so does his heart. This is a book that seems to me to be very human, and very much seeking after understanding, particularly about what it means to be a man today.
There is frank discussion of things like mental health, faith, money, and ethics - but overall this is a readable and rather unique book. Reading an autobiography of someone younger than me is fun, too - because we can all learn from each other.
A great book. Probably a good gift for a traitors fan, definitely an interesting read for young men, and perhaps part of something bigger, as faith is back on the agenda in culture…
(Spoiler not alert - the traitors chapters are particularly brilliant and kept me reading past my bedtime)

Harry is likeable, honest and down-to-earth. He's clearly been massively influenced by both family and faith. The early chapters on his family were a bit of a slog; the book became more engaging as it developed. That Harry achieved fame at such a young age - and that he was largely unready for it - made the sections on his post-Traitors life most interesting.
In many ways, Harry is classic Gen Z. Those not from that cohort will get a glimpse into how they see and make sense of the world. In Christian circles, a lot is being made of the 'quiet revival' among young adults: Harry gives us a case in point - demonstrating both their spiritual openness and, often, their huge blind spots when it comes to fully embracing Christ.

I have to admit, autobiographies are not books I tend to read as they’re not really my calling. But I have always admired Harry Clark and was interested in how he was going to be writing a book so young and early into his career.
I won’t lie, the first few chapters about family I couldn’t really care for. I like how they added to Harry’s spirituality however, a theme prevalent throughout the book.
The chapters on the army and dark side of fame from The Traitors was very interesting. Because Harry isn’t as big as the A listers, these chapters weren’t condescending- they were more relatable.
I thoroughly loved reading the latter part of the book, and am proud to see such a humble and relatable person get the fame they rightfully deserve

Brilliant book. Not something Ild usually read but to hear Harry’s story and it be extremely positive and a great guide for all people who face adversity and how to overcome, it’s brilliant.
Plus to get some behind the scenes views of the best show in telly. Brilliant. But Harry is an inspiration to all young people, entering adulthood and feel a bit lost.
We need more people like Harry. If we do, the next generation will be bright and the world will be in good hands

This is an interesting and thoughtful book. I read it straight through. I have valued reading the reality of life, the ups and downs and Harry's deepening connection to God in the midst of this. Well worth reading.
