Harry’s explosive £ 14.7 million ($ 20 million) memoir is set to be published in the autumn.

Royal biographer Tom Bauer said the 37-year-old Duke of Sussex, who lives in California with his wife Megan Markle, 40 and their two young children, would find it difficult to face his family and be “pleasant” to them, knowing what is written about them in their upcoming memoirs (pictured with Megan at the 53rd NAACP Image Awards show)
Harry’s book, to be published by Random House, is likely to deal with the brothers’ icy relationship with the Duchess of Cornwall, who was confirmed as the future queen’s husband in February.
Prince Harry is currently suing the Home Office after he was told he would no longer receive “the same degree” of personal protection when visiting the United States, although he offered to pay for it himself.
The royal king, who lives in Montecito, California, with Megan Markle, 40, and their son Archie, two, and Lilibet, nine months old, want to bring his children to visit across the Atlantic, but “does not feel safe.” , when a visit to the current security measures was announced earlier by the court.
Bauer said the Duke of Sussex used his security concerns as an “excuse” and said he knew it would be difficult to maintain friendly relations with the royal family after the book was published.
The author said he did not believe Harry would return this year, despite Prince Philip’s Thanksgiving ceremony on April 29 and the Queen’s platinum anniversary in early June.
“I don’t think Harry will come back because he knows he can’t stand up to his family and be nice to them, knowing what he wrote about them in this book,” Bauer said.
“This book will have many casualties and many injuries. This will really work, as Harry knows he needs to justify the money he was paid for it. How can Harry come back and pretend it’s okay? The worst of what he will say is yet to come, “he added.
The Duke of Sussex was due to visit the United Kingdom for his grandmother’s platinum anniversary in June and a memorial service for his late grandfather in April, but a dispute with police over the details of his safety apparently jeopardized the trip. 95, right and Megan, left, 2018)
The author added that his failure to return would be clear evidence of Harry’s loyalty and that the Duke of Sussex may regret not introducing his daughter Lilibet to the monarch before it was too late.
He added that the Duke of Sussex already had many opportunities to return to the United Kingdom, and the fact that he and his family did not visit the Queen after settling in the United States shows where Harry and Megan are.
Harry visited the UK twice on solo trips after moving to North America, once for the funeral of his grandfather, the Duke of Edinburgh on April 17 and July 1 to unveil a statue of his mother Princess Diana at Kensington Palace with Prince William, 39..
Tom also said recently the sun that Megan has no intention of returning to the UK and “just doesn’t care” what the British public thinks.
Harry faces the “ultimate dilemma” this year as he has to decide whether he wants to see his beloved grandmother or stay away from the release of his potentially explosive memoir, Bauer said.
The commentator said that the royal person saw the United Kingdom as a “lost cause”.
“Megan’s final destination is unclear, but she certainly has the support to run for the role of American politician,” he said.
“At the same time, Britain has lost a cause for Sussex. In fact, I suspect Megan no longer cares if she’s welcome in London. She has no intention of returning.
He added that although her popularity had declined in the UK since she married, her three-day visit to New York in September was a “remarkable success” and she clearly enjoyed support among “Democrats, minorities and young people”.
This is the latest revelation released by the book about everything and comes after he said that Megan was branded as “this joke” by Duchess of Cornwallwhich he considered a “selfish riot.”
Prince Harry’s story of life as Windsor could shake the royal family to the core, friends warned (pictured: Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Queen, Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall with Harry and Megan in 2019)
The royal biographer suggests that the duke’s and the duchess’s silence over the queen’s declaration that Camilla would one day be a Queen Consort was “Megan’s way of declaring war.”
Prince Harry is believed to have “reached out to his father” to hold “friendly video chats” before the Queen’s anniversary, and is likely to return for celebrations this summer.
However, sources close to the question suggest that the royal book will reveal without restrictions his true feelings for his stepmother Camilla and will probably “shake the monarchy to its foundations.”
The royal family is deeply concerned by Harry’s decision to collaborate secretly with Pulitzer Prize-winning ghost writer JR Moehringer on what his publishers described as “the final account of the experiences, adventures, losses and life lessons that helped him shape ”.
The Queen, Prince Charles and Prince William are said to have been completely blinded by Harry’s shocking statement that he has been secretly working on his as-yet-untitled memoirs for more than a year.
Megan Markle may never return to the United Kingdom because she “just doesn’t care” what the British public thinks, Bower said. (The couple is pictured at the Global Citizen in New York in September 2021.)
Royal experts have previously warned that a potentially explosive book could burn additional bridges with the distant Duke and the Company.
And sources close to the Duke of Sussex have fired a warning shot that is likely to send chills into the royal family as news of Harry’s potentially explosive memoir reappears.
His friends said The mirror: “If they think he’s softened, they’re wrong. Just wait for the book to come out, because it will shake the monarchy to its foundations.
Friends of the duke told the Mirror: “Although tensions between the two have eased over the years, it has been more a demonstration of unity than a close relationship.
“There were big problems in the beginning, but as Harry and his brother William grew old and matured, things got better and they can now live together as adults. They have never been close to her and still are not.
This comes when The Mail on Sunday reveals that Camilla will be crowned side by side with Charles in a weakened coronation ceremony when the time comes.
The Prince of Wales has already made it clear that he supports a slimmer monarchy and his coronation service is expected – whenever he comes – to set the tone for his rule.
