Blurb from publisher.

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.

Covering 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, Prince Harry will offer an honest and captivating personal portrait, on that shows readers that behind everything they think they know lies an inspiring, courageous and uplifting human story.'

I doubt many will be interested to be honest.

How in the world did we Americans get all tarred by the same brush? I sure as hell am not planning on spending money on that delusional couple's books and I think the vast majority of us are just as sick of the gruesome twosome as the people of the UK are!

@FrownedUpon

Oh please. What a bore fest. Who would buy this?
@FrownedUpon It's hard to fathom who the target audience would be, but there are some gullible folk around who will lap up Harry's version of events.

I like the idea of "Prince to Pauper" as a title. Or maybe it could be "Harry - Prince of Peeves".

I am not sure why it has taken a year to write his memoirs. Most people know stuff about his life already.People may well remember his birth,and him starting school and joining the Army.all well documented in the media. People have seen his girl friends over the years, seen his nightclub and drinking episodes. and his working in Africa.and obviously know about his trauma regarding Diana.

He has already divulged in that interview what he feels about being trapped within royal life.so he has mostly said it all already.

I suppose his wife has suggested that he should write about his life, as some kind of therapy,as he keeps talking about his woes non stop.

notangelinajolie · 20/07/2021 03:05

His life has been well documented. I don't need to hear it all again.

Mintjulia · 20/07/2021 03:20

Cringeworthy is the only word for it. . Certainly he didn't have the easiest start in life but at what point will he accept he's a grown up and needs to stop looking for a free ride.

sashh · 20/07/2021 04:01

He seems to think he is Diana reincarnated.

He's checking off the list.

Good with children, particularly none white ones
Interview on TV
Tell all book
Talks about mental health issues (Actually not criticizing him for that)

How long before he names himself, "the people's prince"

But compared to his Uncle Andrew

Nancydrawn · 20/07/2021 04:11

I can't stop laughing at "I'm writing this not as the Prince I was born as but the man I have become."

It keeps popping into my head, and I start to giggle inelegantly.

PurpleOkapi · 20/07/2021 04:16

Next think you know, he'll be changing his name to a stylized ankh!

But of course, it won't just be the symbol. It will be "His Royal Highness [symbol], the Duke of Sussex."

HoppingPavlova · 20/07/2021 04:19

Who on earth is going to buy this self indulgent bullshit?.

Americans. He fits in well there. They don’t seem to question bullshit like everyone else does.

Dogvmarmot · 20/07/2021 04:21

@OverByYer

Harry , what an absolute plum. There’s no way back for him now is there?

As others have said , who will want to read it? He really does have a high opinion of himself.

I can hardly wait to read how he basically came from nothing but managed through sheer hard work and kindness to rise above the grim poverty and mean family he was born into. I will struggle not to cry when I get to the chapter where he refused to do his job and his dad cut him off when he was only in his late 30s and struggled to survive with only several million £s. What a buffoon

Give us a little credit! Some of us question and mock his bullshit all the time.

@Mummyoflittledragon

Oh joy. Not one but two books. When is this man he’s become actually going to do something of any substance?
well realistically thats all he has to sell. He has minimal education and skills and his wife was an actress but no A lister. They clearly want to have a very high standard of living - A lister level - so the only way they can get money is by pimping themselves, their royal stories and staged photos of them and their children. presumably v limited shelf life so I guess they are raking it in now. Like all reality stars they have to capitalise on their fame before everyone loses interest. And they are certainly not going to be mingling with the A lister stars as they cannot be trusted to be discrete.
Mandalay246 · 20/07/2021 04:55

Did you feel this sad, when MM was being hounded by the press, I wonder.

MM was the only person who married into the Royal Family who has been hounded was she? Hmm

chaosrabbitland · 20/07/2021 05:26

@Mummy194

The only clarity we have is that it was only Harry whose picture was leaked.

Guess that is what is meant by "harry has to learn that he is the sparer"

and it really is just as well hes the spare
SpeakingFranglais · 20/07/2021 05:59

That Californian air con bill needs to be paid, Nanna Liz said she’s not paying it and Megs said he needs to tell his truth to the world.

longwayoff · 20/07/2021 06:12

Oh for crying out loud. Silly, silly boy. Imagine being him looking back in 10 years time, although he'd have to have some degree of insight to be embarrassed by his recent behaviour so I expect it will be someone else's fault. Dreadful, what an absolute fool.

Tealwarrior · 20/07/2021 06:19

I haven't heard that rumour, but there was somewhere a mention that when Harry was stationed with his unit in the UK he'd disappear off to London every weekend to party, rather than hanging out with his military mates

It’s what people do. They go away for the weekend. And all the more so if they’re an officer.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 20/07/2021 06:29

Ha! The people’s prince.

I’ve got your affliction of inelegant giggling nancy Grin

AnimalCrossingNewHorizons · 20/07/2021 06:37

@Mummy194

I hope Harry goes all the way with this book and does not hold back.
And what does he gain from that except for people like you, who apparently claim to support Harry and Meghan, whose actions will just cause them more issues than solutions. There’ll be people wondering about like vultures to read Harry’s “truth”, all those who are apparently cheering him on…then where will they be when he has burned his bridges and pretty much cut off all ties to his past life and his royal connections become used currency? Will they still champion him then or will he just become old news?

It’s sad because I actually felt that Harry and Meghan had the potential to make things better.

5lilducks · 20/07/2021 06:46

Harry and Dominic C are so annoying and childish They should put a lid on it already. Nobody cares about what they have to say. Nobody wants to read about a pathetic little whinger or find anything in common with one.

Serenster · 20/07/2021 06:57

@Mummy194

Once more, for the 100th time,

It was Camilla Tominey and other reporters who said H&M wanted a quiet private life. They never said any such thing. They even stated that they will be talking to international as well as small press.

Harry’s speech at Sentabale on 19 January 2020:

““What I want to make clear is we’re not walking away, and we certainly aren’t walking away from you. Our hope was to continue serving the Queen, the Commonwealth, and my military associations, but without public funding. Unfortunately, that wasn’t possible.

“I’ve accepted this, knowing that it doesn’t change who I am or how committed I am.

“But I hope that helps you understand what it had come to, that I would step my family back from all I have ever known, to take a step forward into what I hope can be a more peaceful life

I wonder how he thinks that is working out for him?

AncientandFabulous · 20/07/2021 06:58

His poor family. I thought Oprah was bad. This I think is on another level.

HauteGirlSummer · 20/07/2021 07:02

Can't wait to pre-order this 😆😆 Go Harry!
We'll be hearing his version of the story as opposed to the millions of 'sources' the media constantly quotes 🙄
