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've worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively..."

Is it only me who can't help but hear that part in Alan Partridge's voice?

@EvelynSalt Grin ! Please, please let one of his book interviews be with Richard Madeley on GMB!

Seems to be they keep poking the royal bear. Will it roar. That's the question. Not sure if bears roar.
I doubt it. They will as always lead by example, not react and carry on doing the royal duty stuff with dignity while he does the sensational Hollywood crap. Attention seeking 'don't look at me/LOOK AT ME!' contrary bollocks.

@Roussette "Did you think or say that when Sarah did her book? It pulled no punches."

I had to check that book out, only to realise it was published more than 25 years ago, some of us may have been in primary school then.

It is not a valid comparison to compare a book written by the divorced wife of his uncle in what was a very short lived marriage, , to the son, brother, uncle of the heir to the throne writing what could possible by a tell all book, or maybe it won't be a tell all, but the insinuation is that it will be

Those lovely weeks in Canada we didn't hear a peep out of the them and they weren't discussed

Totally untrue. The threads and posts did not stop. All regurgitated stuff. I am just going out so don't have time to prove it, but I promise you, the commenting about them carried on, even with radio silence

I disagree, there was sod all commentary about the time in Canada when we didn't hear a peep out of them.

It only took off after they made their withdrawal statement.

I do hope he covers his racist remarks during his time in the army.

I’m sure Elton John is already eyeing up turning it into a musical.

@Roussette

That's ironic. So people have to start a thread saying they aren't interested lolol

If they were really disinterested, they would be ignoring it and not spending time starting threads and posting on it.

Not ironic as the message needs to get out - we are even needing to go online to say once and for all we are not interested - no sale. Your life your business do you want me to sell mine - if so it’s for a charitable cause and not for personal financial benefit! Waiting for someone to say they only do what they do for 200% charity to help the poor Africans etc - not. By the same token living it up lavishly on legacy funding from those that made them rich over generations. The last and remaining USP is not unique and not a selling point as no point and no sale! Ironic is selling something no one wants to buy or believe anymore but from possibly some Americans without royalty but just other likewise transitgent celebs worship.

Maybe the announcement coming now is a bit of gentle blackmail; " play nicely over the Windsor christening, or who know what cruelties Harry might remember".
If I was Her Maj I wouldn't trust them an inch. Even if they got a picture of her holding the baby and smiling on MM they are still capable of trashing the family if there's enough cash in it.

Oh he will but it won't be his fault you see, itll be his racist family's fault! It's only now he has been enabled he can see just how badly he was brought up. Tragic. We are all being trolled by Haz.

I might consider buying it when it's in the wilko bin of doom with a huge yellow sticker over his face marked ' 99p'

Ooh a musical. That would be fun. What songs. I suggest Non je ne regrette rien and I can't get no satisfaction. For starters.

Yet another thread filled with posters who aren't interested in PH!

By lunchtime it'll be 'Prince Harry's Memoirs to be published PART 3' 🙄😂

'Yet another thread filled with posters who aren't interested in PH!'

But people aren't interested in many high profile people yet they still get criticised? I guarantee if he hadn't announced his latest 'tell all' we would not be discussing him.

He has to learn if he doesn't want scrutiny he must stop behaving like a privileged prat and announcing this nonsense.

Oh come off it. It will be serialised in the tabloids, it will be all over sm and the msm just like Finding Freedom was, as H knows it will be. I didn't buy FF either but unfortunately know much of the drivel that was in it. It's his latest getting even sting.

It really isn't 'hate'. I pity him.

Whinge · 20/07/2021 09:37

I wonder where he will go after releasing the book. Once he's done his tell all memoirs, is there anything left to keep him in the public eye?

I am fully expecting a parenting guide of some sort.

Marmaladeagain · 20/07/2021 09:40

Agree it’s more of the blackmail style used when not being given what they want.

Previously Harry was considered popular by some - so he had that to trade on with the RF. Now that Harry is a laughing stock (disclaimer: he has a few fans on this thread - but look at popularity survey - even Meghan is above him). He is seriously unpopular now and rightly so.

No need to give into his blackmail regarding the christening. They left what they describe as toxic environment and it isn’t remotely credible for them to expect close family members to be photographed near them at a chastening (which is all it is) - photos equal status to trade on in US.

He attacks the Queen and her work every single time he attacks the RF. What is the face to use here, don’t think I can find one that aptly portrays anyone being unable to comprehend the difference between a married in relationship (fergie) with no claim on line of succession at all and a birth/blood relation. I think 😀 will do actually Grin.

No hate here I just wish Harry would get a proper therapist and finally start to overcome his demons and move on with his life.

For someone who is so fortunate in having a lovley wife, 2 young children, a very sizable bank balance and a house many of us could only dream of he seems to be intent on focusing on the past instead off finding happiness.

Instead of trying to tell his story to get back at the firm he should maybe adopt the age old adage of a well lived life is the best revenge.

ShamedBySiri · 20/07/2021 09:44

@Terhou

I'm going to put money on the book opening with a tearjerking account of his mother's death. He's been fairly blatantly pushing the "son of St Diana" angle ever since he left the country.
You said it first and you're bang on the money!

In time honoured dramatic style it will start with the single most significant moment of his life as he started the long walk behind her coffin. First chapter devoted to Diana's death.
Then a quick round up of life before (except he says he has few memories of that time so I guess it'll be a very short chapter). Then on to the rest of his life before Meghan.

I'll add another bet. The section of the book devoted to life after Meghan will be at least as long as the preceding sections.

Who's going to manage the sweepstakes?
