Queen Elizabeth Is Reportedly “Getting Lawyered Up” Over Prince Harry’s Memoir
Today in royal family drama, it looks like the Queen is preparing for Prince Harry’s upcoming memoir with…a team of lawyers. The Sun (via Page Six) reports that Queen Elizabeth is “getting lawyered up” and that senior palace aides are in talks with libel experts, with a royal source telling the outlet:
“The feeling, coming right from the top, is that enough is enough. There is a limit to how much will be accepted and the Queen and royal family can only be pushed so far. They are getting lawyered up. Harry and Meghan will be made aware and know repeated attacks will not be tolerated.”
This news comes as Prince Harry prepares to release his debut memoir—and apparently, the Queen’s team is now considering sending “legal warnings” to Harry’s publishing house, Penguin Random House.
“If someone were named in the book and accused of something directly, that could be a libel and also infringe their rights to a private family life,” the source explained. “There are concerns that the American public are falling for what Harry and Meghan say.”
Erm. Pretty sure Harry is allowed to write whatever he wants in his memoir considering it’s his memoir. But also, he hasn’t in any way indicated that the book will be dramatic. In fact, all he has said is this:
“I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become. 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.”
