Prince Harry Receiving At Least $20M From Explosive Memoir On Royal Family
Prince Harry’s deal with Penguin Random House on a memoir about his life with the Royal Family is raking in at least $20 million.
According to Page Six, Harry is working with J.R. Moehringer, a ghostwriter who will help detail his experiences. Moehringer will reportedly be getting a $1 million advance.
In a statement about his memoir Harry said, “I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become.”
”I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story – the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned – I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think.
“I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far and excited for people to read a first hand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful.”
Markus Dohle, of Penguin Random House said that it was a privilege to work with Harry, who reportedly spoke to the Royal family about his memoir plans.
A blurb from the publisher, obtained by Page Six, writes, “In an intimate and heartfelt memoir from one of the most fascinating and influential global figures of our time, Prince Harry will share, for the very first time, the definitive account of the experiences, adventures, losses, and life lessons that have helped shape him.”
In addition, the book will cover “his lifetime in the public eye from childhood to the present day, including his dedication to service, the military duty that twice took him to the frontlines of Afghanistan, and the joy he has found in being a husband and father.”
“Insiders are already discussing how much he’ll go in detail about his family after a huge fallout with William and accusing William and Charles of being trapped in their roles on the bombshell Oprah interview,” said a source per Page Six. “He last saw William a few weeks ago at the Diana statue unveiling where, despite sharing a laugh with William, he jumped on a plane that afternoon to go home.”
The book is set for release in late 2022.
