Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are amused by Ex-Prince Andrew’s memoir rumors, says source
Radar Online reports that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are amused by rumors that ex-Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor may potentially release a memoir. When Prince Harry released his 2023 memoir, “Spare,” critics heavily criticized him for airing family disputes publicly.
Andrew, who was stripped of his royal titles and asked to leave Royal Lodge on the orders of King Charles, is rumored to be considering publishing a memoir. The news comes after the former Duke of York was surrounded by various controversies. He was later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in office. Although he has denied all the allegations, the investigation is ongoing.
Insiders say the royal couple thinks a potential memoir from Andrew would highlight a double standard within the royal family.
A source said that the reaction from “certain royal insiders and establishment figures” on Harry’s memoir was “fierce.” Plus, the criticism Harry faced was “deeply personal.” They were believed to have crossed a boundary by making their experience public, the source claims.
Harry and Markle allegedly feel that it would be ironic if the same people who harshly criticized Harry’s book reacted differently to Andrew’s memoir.
Meanwhile, another insider added, “There is certainly a sense of quiet vindication from Harry and Meghan’s perspective, and they’ve been quietly laughing over the prospect of Andrew unleashing a memoir.”
