Prince Harry’s book

Is Meghan planning on writing a book about her life?

I thought it was a great book. I realize there was a ghostwriter, but it's his information and narrative. He has a lot of worthwhile things to say and I can't figure out why the BR family needs a cloak of any protection from anyone with a perspective, or any opaqueness. The other royal families of Europe certainly have their drama. These people are human, and there is a dynamic that is worth analyzing under all this pageantry.
Secondly, all the leaked tidbits that imply all kinds of things about Harry vs. members of his family are false- completely taken out of context and twisted. He does a good with explaining the institution's relationship with the media, and it's important to know. In many ways, this was a love letter to his family, not a tear down.

When you say Ghostwriter, is this something that you were guessing or is it credited somewhere in the book that he received assistance?

I actually think that we sell just as well. If they really want to share their story with the world, that would mean both of them. It’s also very common for Hollywood royalty to write books.

Do you think that Megan helped write the book? Is she the “ghostwriter “ referred to above?

It is credited. He didn't write the book. He provided content and JR Moehringer wrote the book as a ghostwriter. That is how it works for all celeb memoirs. Celebs aren't authors. They hire credible successful authors to write their books.

This makes sense. I think we’re confused me was the term ghostwriter.

The ghostwriter also wrote “Open” for Andre Agassi. The writer strikes me as full of ego because he has ghosted two books with one word titles and similar covers so the book is about him building a brand as much as it is about the celebrity. This ghost won a Pulitzer for something.

I have no dog in the fight and could care less about the royals but bought the book because I work with survivors of abuse and from the tidbits I knew, I really felt empathy for Harry. It’s clear to me that Harry was emotionally abused and gaslit his entire life, traumatized from the loss of his mother and his inability to have his own narrative .. and now he has taken his power back by using his voice. It may seem extreme to some, but when you’ve been silenced by a machine that is only about appearances your whole life then this is the repercussion of that. He says all he wants is accountability from the people that hurt him but all they did was call him paranoid and delusional. That’s not how you repair relationships and clearly the monarchy cares more about their image than anything else.

The book may help the public hold them accountable because it will change their opinions of them. However, I wonder if the royals themselves will read the book?

And they aren’t just telling their own story, they are using this to try and also tell stories about family, leak private info, make family look bad etc.

I don’t quite get it.


Where’s your evidence???

She has reportedly planning on writing her own memoir / autobiography. This makes sense given the tremendous success of Harry’s book.

Not sure why. That’s the term for someone who writes a book on behalf of someone else.
