Prince Harry had planned
to publish a memoir at the end of 2022, but it has been reported he could delay
the book after the death of the Queen earlier this month.
Mr. Monetti said: “My big
worry is the Harry book. You don’t get an advance as big as that unless there’s
going to be some negativity in it, that’s just the way publishing and the media
work.
“Harry should pulp all
those copies of the book and abandon the project. I know it has been delayed
but I don’t see how shortly after the death of the Queen and ahead of his
father’s coronation it helps.
“But if there’s a
particular thing he wants to get off his chest he can do it. It will be
fascinating to watch. Those beautiful pictures of Meghan, Harry, William and
Kate together mourning with the others…I hope we aren’t looking back at them
in the future and thinking ‘look how good it was before the book came out’.
“All of us come from
families that have internal arguments. I am just one of those people who feel
it can be better solved through communication.”
Another royal expert has
claimed this week that Harry will be “torn” between his family and his
love for wife Meghan Markle. Robert Jobson also said once Harry’s book is
published, there will be no going back.
He wrote in The Sun:
“Harry will no doubt be torn between wanting acceptance from his family
and also the love of his wife. But he has now left himself in a Catch-22
situation.
“He has signed a
four-book deal worth millions with Penguin Random House. He needs the money to
fund his flash Californian lifestyle.
“Once that book, which is
now written, hits bookshelves there will be no going back for Harry.”
