Meghan Markle won't be the only published author in her family for much longer. Her husband, Prince Harry, has a memoir on the way that’s coming next year.
Penguin Random House—the publisher behind the book—announced the exciting news in a press release on Monday. Per Us Weekly, Harry released a statement that explained why the reason why he’s writing the novel and even teased what it will include.
“I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become,” the 35-year-old said in the statement. “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. I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far and excited for people to read a firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful.”
According to the release, all proceeds will be donated to charity. “All of us at Penguin Random House are thrilled to publish Prince Harry’s literary memoir and have him join the world-renowned leaders, icons, and change-makers we have been privileged to publish over the years,” Markus Dohle, the CEO of PRH, said in a separate statement. “Prince Harry has harnessed his extraordinary life experience as a prince, a soldier, and a knowledgeable advocate for social issues, establishing himself as a global leader recognized for his courage and openness. It is for that reason we’re excited to publish his honest and moving story.”
Page Six also reported that Harry has been working with writer J. R. Moehringer, who won a Pulitzer Prize for feature writing in 2000. So, while we don’t have an exact release date just yet, we already have a feeling 2022 is going to be a good year.
