New Book Details Rift Between Royals And Meghan Markle & Prince Harry Which Led To Megxit

The tell-all is coming, and it sounds JUICY!

Though Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are NOT involved with it, a new biography about what led up to Megxit is on the way, and promises insider details on what really went down behind closed doors.

Finding Freedom: Harry and Meghan and the Making of a Modern Royal Family is due out in August, and the first peek is here. A description states:

“For the very first time, ‘Finding Freedom’ goes beyond the headlines to reveal unknown details of Harry and Meghan’s life together, dispelling the many rumors and misconceptions that plague the couple on both sides of the pond. As members of the select group of reporters that cover the British Royal Family and their engagements, Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand have witnessed the young couple’s lives as few outsiders can.”

But the couple is distancing themselves from it, despite some friends reportedly being interviewed. A spokesperson for the couple told Page Six on Friday:

“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were not interviewed and did not contribute to ‘Finding Freedom.’ This book is based on the authors’ own experiences as members of the royal press corps and their own independent reporting.”

A first glance at the book has been published by The Times Of London, and from the looks of it, it will seemingly be sympathetic towards Archie‘s mum and dad and the trials and tribulations they went to which led to their decision to step back from their royal roles.

Apparently, a huge issue was their popularity! Though they were a major draw in terms of relatability, especially in comparison to other family members, things needed to be “reined in.” An excerpt reads:

“The senior courtiers whom Diana used to refer to as “men in grey suits” were concerned that the global interest in and popularity of the Sussexes needed to be reined in. In the short time since their fairytale wedding, Harry and Meghan were already propelling the monarchy to new heights around the world.”

The passage continues (below):

“As their popularity had grown, so did Harry and Meghan’s difficulty in understanding why so few inside the palace were looking out for their interests. They were a major draw for the royal family. According to a press report that compared the online popularity of the Sussexes with the Cambridges from November 2017 to January 2020, “Harry-and-Meghan-related searches accounted for 83 percent of the world’s curiosity in the two couples.””

But despite how obviously popular the pair was, Harry reportedly grew frustrated that he and his new wife “took a back seat to other family members.” Seeing how his own mother had been treated by her in-laws, he didn’t want the same thing to happen to Meg, and was eventually “drained” by the circumstances:

“No one could deny the fact that the couple was emotionally exhausted, whether they had brought it on themselves or were victims of a merciless machine.”
