According to a royal biographer, the royal family is “hugely nervous” about Prince Harry‘s memoir.
In an exclusive new interview, Tom Bower, the author of “Revenge: Meghan, Harry, and the War Between the Windsors,” claims that the planned book by the Duke of Sussex is a “time bomb.”
In light of Queen Elizabeth II‘s passing last month, it has been previously claimed that Harry, 38, is frantically trying to revise the book. He wants to “take out or reduce” what he wrote about King Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton.
Bower, though, thinks that it cannot.
“I think that everybody knows that the Sussexes can’t amend the book in any way,” he opines. “Can they make it nastier? Because otherwise, we wouldn’t get sales.”
Harry’s memoir, which was supposed to be published by Penguin Random House in November, has already been postponed until 2019.
According to Bower, the book is rumoured to be coming out around Easter and will have a chapter on the [Queen’s] funeral.
“And there’ll just be more material about how they were snubbed and all the rest of the invective against the royal family,” he adds. “So I think the delay will add to the poison to that extent.”
Charles, 73, is reportedly waiting until the couple’s numerous media endeavours are finished before deciding whether to give Harry and Markle’s children, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1, the titles of prince and princess.
Additionally, Harry and Markle, both 41, have been collaborating on a Netflix docuseries for more than a year.
The series, which Netflix aimed to release in December after the fifth season of “The Crown” on Nov. 9, was also reportedly in need of a re-edit by the duke and duchess. According to a source, such revisions “may likely delay its release until later in 2023.”
Despite allegations that the former actress and their first child, Archie, encountered racial hostility and that she had considered committing suicide while pregnant with him, Harry and Markle wed in May 2018 and retired from their royal duties less than two years later.
Finally relocating to California, they acquired lucrative contracts with Spotify and Netflix.
