Prince Harry to Leave Prince Andrew Out of His Memoir

Prince Harry is set to publish his memoirs with Penwyn Random House.

The tell-all book is said to be intimate and heartfelt, which has caused fear among royal aides who think Harry will make several damaging claims about his time as a royal.

However, there is an increasing confidence that Prince Andrew and his former wife will be left alone.

A royal source said Harry will not mention Prince Andrew out of respect for Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.

They said that Harry and Meghan are very conscious of the impact the Epstein scandal has had on Beatrice and Eugenie, and they won't want to add to the pile-on.

The source added that Meghan is also very fond of Sarah, the Duchess of York, who she feels has had a not-too-dissimilar journey.

They're not expected to bear the brunt of Harry's anger and frustration with the royal establishment.

Speaking to Dan Wootten for the Daily Mail, the source added that the fear factor around Harry's book is off the scale.

They added that even when the Princess of Wales cooperated with Andrew Morton, she had the veneer of deniability.

These are Harry's own words.

They might want to remain above the fray, but that could become impossible depending on what bombshells are unleashed.

Clarence House and Kensington Palace now accept their principals will be in the firing line.

There is an expectation that the Queen and Prince Philip will be lovingly praised.

In August 2021, Virginia Duke accused Prince Andrew of s**ual assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

The Duke of York denied the allegations, and in October 2021, Andrew's lawyers filed a response, stating their client unequivocally denies Ms. Dufresne's false allegations.

Criminal proceedings in the US over Ms. Dufresne's claims are still possible.

It comes after the Queen gave the go-ahead for her trusted aide and royal dresser Angela Kelly to reveal her lockdown secrets in a new chapter of her picture book The Other Side of the Coin.

Publisher HarperCollins announced that the Queen personally gave Angela her blessing to share their unparalleled bond with the world, and Angela is the first serving member of the royal household to be given this extraordinary permission.

The latest chapter will give an insight into the Queen's time in lockdown with the Duke of Edinburgh and even cover his funeral in April 2021.

Royal author Phil Dampier believes that both Harry and Ms. Kelly's books are unlikely to be competing in terms of sales.

The author said that Harry's book will be a bestseller, while Angela's is suited to a more niche market.

Angela will focus very much on the Queen and how she and her staff coped, while Harry will be talking about his whole life.

In other news, Royal commentator Katie Schofield has issued a warning that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly possess no more leverage that can heal their relationship with the firm.

She said that there's so much animosity right now that they're considered outsiders, and there's no room to heal at this point.

Schofield added that she wishes that Harry would heal the broken wounds that are happening right now so that we can look in the future and one day hopefully see Harry and Meghan within the fold, maybe not working royals, but invited for holidays, invited for Christmas.
