Well if he is changing the book now to be ‘sensitive’ then clearly the book was insensitive to a Queen who’s health has been in decline over the last 18 months when he started writing it.
Either that or he is changing it in order to protect the titles of his children by not upsetting the Kings wife….
Looks like it’s all backfired…the sale of the book hinged on who he was going to dig the knife in to and quite frankly unless it’s Andrew…it won’t go down well.

“Amid fears some sections are now ‘insensitve’”

But he didn’t care about insensitive material being published while she was alive and how that would affect her?
No, now he’s concerned about how it is going to affect people’s perception of HIM and what HE wanted out of it.
Maybe he didn't quite realize quite how much love people had for her until he saw the amazing reaction to her death and now he's crapping himself.

One reason for changing it is because it would make him look bad, or maybe they have patched up some differences and it would no longer be appropriate. Time will tell

Harry and Meghan should be utterly ashamed of themselves on many counts.

https://www.skynews.com.au/world-new...a85f0fd10066d0

Queen Elizabeth II was "exhausted" and "very hurt" by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to walk away from royal life and from all of the "turmoil" it caused, a bombshell new book claims.


In her upcoming book The New Royals: Queen Elizabeth's Legacy and the Future of the Crown author Katie Nicholl reveals the late monarch was “exhausted by the turmoil of their decision”.
................
This book apparently isn't about Harry and Meghan as the 'new Royals' by the way, they are only briefly mentioned as to the effect their actions had on the Queen; its about the Queen's heirs and the actual working and future working Royals.

I think the timing is bad , i think Harry should have left it longer . His Grandmother's funeral was only last week. However as far as i know both Harry & Meghan never had a bad word to say about The Queen and he clearly loved his grandmother very much , obviously i don't know what he's written or what the 'last minute change ' is . Unless it's nerves & he's worried? .

His father, brother and sister in laws positions have all changed greatly, so if he were taking a pop at any of them now like he did when he said his father cut him off etc, then it's a direct attack on the current monarch. It wouldn't go down well with the public. As I say, he may have patched things up too and may feel its just not appropriate to say some things he may have previously felt like saying.

If he gets it right now, things could get a lot easier for him and Meghan, they may even be allowed a part time role, who knows. The rules set in stone by the late queen may well get thrown out, but it wouldnt be appropriate to change them overnight, it requires some settling time. My advice to him would be to bite his tongue for a while and let the changes happen

Harry is Diana’s son, and the book is titled, I think the whole truth so there is the biggest selling point add to the fact his current relationship to his father and brother and him attacking the monarchy you have the makings of a best seller

I wouldn’t got out and buy it but I am interested in what he has to say.

What does he think he'll achieve? The sniveling lies and half-truths in the Oprah interview were bad enough, and it's not like anything new would have happened since then.

You are right jet he didn’t care when he stood by his wife accusing the royals of being racist

He missed the flight to rush to the queen in Scotland because he was arguing with his dad about bringing Meghan with him.

I think it’s about trying to hold onto the titles and not be cut adrift completely from the royals that’s why he is trying to change things

Harry has signed a four book deal

Harry's situation has many similarities with the abdication, they were extremely lucky it was Harry and not William that took this direction

If he is toning it down it is only to the good and can only help to heal rifts

Fair enough. I wouldn't buy it either and also I am not interested in what he has to say. All he ever says is negative.

I read yesterday that the titles of Prince and Princess for Archie and Lilly are on hold until the 'trust' issues are sorted.
Whatever the reason is for 'making changes' its clear that whatever was written was written with the intent to discredit a member or members of the family... If he loved his Grandmother that much why would he continue to discredit her family and institution??? Why cant he just get on with his life in America with his beloved wife and family with all the money making projects they have in hand???
It was abundantly clear how bad the relations are between them all still...trust takes time to heal and King Charles holds all the cards especially where their precious titles are concerned.

I think harry is carrying a lot of anger that stems from the death of his mother

And was reignited by the events of him leaving the monarchy
I truly hope Meghan is the love of his life and they stay together because if they end up divorced it will destroy him

The signs are that Harry’s book will now be delayed until next year - missing the usual yearly October release of books for the lucrative Christmas market.
Royal fans still have the below - mentioned book and the Katie Nicholl “New Royals” book to look forward to.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ic-Meghan.html

Meghan's aides branded her a 'narcissistic sociopath' over her demanding behaviour - and gave themselves the name 'Sussex Survivors Club', new book claims

By IAN GALLAGHER FOR THE MAIL ON SUNDAY

Extract:

Palace aides believed that the Duchess of Sussex was deliberately laying a ‘trail of evidence’ as she carefully plotted her departure from the Royal Family, a new book claims.
It alleges that her aides – who named themselves the ‘Sussex Survivors’ Club’ after Meghan and Harry quit their roles – called the Duchess a ‘narcissistic sociopath’.

Extracts of Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind The Crown by Valentine Low were published by The Sunday Times last night.

The book claims that staff became convinced the Duchess wanted to show how the institution failed her – and even felt there was a cynical motive behind her decision to complain to HR bosses, who listened sympathetically but offered no help.
‘This was inevitable: HR is there to deal with employee issues, not members of the Royal Family,’ the book says. ‘Meghan would presumably have known that, so what was she doing there? Laying a trail of evidence, would be the cynical answer.’
A former staff member told Low: ‘Everyone knew that the institution would be judged by her happiness. The mistake they made was thinking that she wanted to be happy.’...

…….But the aides grew so disillusioned they began to suspect even her most desperate pleas were part of a deliberate strategy designed to facilitate her departure.
The books alleges: ‘They believe she wanted to be able to say “Look how they failed to support me”.
According to the book some of Meghan’s staff ‘suspected that in the end she wanted to make money. And the only way she could do that was by leaving her Royal life behind and going back to America’.
—-------------------
What many of us here suspected and gave our thoughts on long before these Palace aides spoke out and confirmed our suspicions.
