Help! Do I tell my kids the truth?

Long story short, I was gifted a certificate to write my own life story with Storybox.life. My kids bought it for me as a 70th birthday gift and I have loved sharing my stories and pictures each week and can’t wait to receive the final book. However, I may have told too much information about my divorce from their father - that they may not wish to know. And now it’s nearly finished I’m thinking I’d quite like to keep the book and not share it. However I think they are all expecting to read it. Would it be rude to say that it was a gift for me and it’s private? Should I edit it to be less private? Or do I share everything I’ve written?

Edit the bit you are unsure of . The rest is living history. It's a great idea and I wish I had done this
