Prince Harry Urged to Cancel Tell-All Memoir by Father Charles

Prince Harry has been urged by his father, Prince Charles, to cancel his upcoming tell-all memoir after his pledge to honor King Charles.

The Duke of Sussex appeared to offer an olive branch to his father, who he has a troubled relationship with, in a tribute to the late Queen on Monday.

In his statement, Harry said he would honor Charles as he starts his reign.

However, outspoken broadcaster Piers Morgan insisted the Duke should pull the plug on his forthcoming book following his promise to the new king.

Writing for the New York Post, the talk TV presenter said, “if this book is as bad as the palace fears, all hell will break loose when it's published, and the ensuing furor could depth charge King Charles III's reign before it's even gotten going.”

Morgan went on to say that if Harry genuinely wants to honor his father, he should tear up his lucrative contract with Penguin Random House and cancel the book.

The royals have been bracing for the Duke's book about his life, which is due out later this year.

However, there are reports the tome, which is being published by Penguin Random House, could be pushed back to next year as the 37-year-old agonizes over which truth bombs to include.

It comes as Harry made a nod to Charles in his tribute on Monday as he hailed his grandmother as a guiding compass through her dedication to her public role.

He said, “In celebrating the life of my grandmother, Her Majesty the Queen, and in mourning her loss, we are all reminded of the guiding compass she was to so many in her commitment to service and beauty.

She was globally admired and respected.

Her unwavering grace and dignity remained true throughout her life and now her everlasting legacy.”

The Duke announced plans for his tell-all book last year, promising it would be an accurate and wholly truthful account of his life.

Harry said at the time, “I'm writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become.

I've worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story, the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned, I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think.”

Haynacht across his face, crestfallen Harry knew he was too late to say his last goodbyes.

After years of damaging disputes with his family, his grandmother remained his biggest ally.

Following the tragic death of his mother, she was his most steadfast and guiding force, refusing to bow to a nation's grief and return to London until she felt they were ready.

Harry knew he could always rely on her support despite deciding to leave his royal role behind and set up a new life in America with his wife and children.

Even though he neglected to tell Her Majesty of his plan to announce his decision, before dropping a bombshell statement on social media angering his family and the institution, the Queen's deep affection for him outweighed his dissent.

Since he learned of the Queen's passing, perhaps Harry has experienced more than a moment of regret as to where he finds himself now.

Even his brother William, so long his closest confidant and person he shared the deepest bond, cannot bear to think about letting him back into the fold.

Such is the nervousness of what he may say or do next to rail against the family their truce last week ahead of the Queen's funeral is a mere sticking plaster to wounds that run deep.
