Prince Harry: No changes to autobiography?

For months, international media have been speculating about what exactly Prince Harry (38) is writing about in his upcoming autobiography "Reserve". Among other things, there were reports that Duchess Meghan's husband (41) is said to have defused the content of the alleged disclosure book after the death of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II (1926-2022). However, that is not true, writes Omid Scobie (41), who is considered a close friend of the couple.

The co-author of Harry Meghan's "Finding Freedom" biography claims in a piece for "Yahoo News UK" that passages have not been rewritten or adapted. Apparently, that wasn't even necessary, since Harry shouldn't gossip about his family, contrary to the reports of some tabloids. The manuscript was completed about five months before the Queen's death.

Instead, "Reserve" offers an insightful look at real life as a royal. No matter how careful Harry is, Scobie says he still risks serious backlash from family members if he writes about parts of his story that affect other people. Advisors from the palace have therefore confirmed to Scobie that there is a "real fear" among the royals that the autobiography could damage their reputation and relationships.

In the summer of 2021, Harry announced that he was working on an autobiography. "I am writing this not as the prince I was born, but as the man I have become," Harry said in a statement. He wanted to talk about the ups and downs of his life, about mistakes made and lessons learned. He hopes that with the book he can show "that we have more in common than we think, no matter where we come from".

Accordingly, "Reserve" is heralded as "a unique book full of insight, admissions, self-reflection and the hard-won belief that love can conquer grief forever". The autobiography will be published by Penguin Verlag in Germany on January 10, 2023.
