Last year, the biography "Finding Freedom" about Harry and Meghan caused an uproar.
The new, expanded edition also reveals explosive news from Kensington Palace.
Munich - Last year, the unauthorized biography "Finding Freedom" about Harry and Meghan caused a stir.
A new, expanded edition is now to be published on August 31, 2021.
And these supplements are tough too.
As the
Daily Mail
reports, various problematic topics are raised, one of them arguably the dispute over Archie's title.
There are new insights here that should make the topic even more explosive.
Harry and Meghan emphasized in the Oprah interview that they want a title for Archie
A quick recap: when Archie was born in 2019, it seemed like Harry and Meghan didn't care much for him to receive a title. In the interview with Oprah, however, it looked very different. As the couple admitted, they wanted a title for their son Archie so he could have been protected by the royal security guards. This security level would only exist with a title, which Archie is said to have been denied, according to Harry and Meghan. Above all, this should have been related to the son's possible skin color.
However, shortly after this Oprah interview, an expert declared that on the one hand the prince title and princess title would only be available to direct successors to the throne and that he could have taken over the title of his father Harry "Lord of Dumbarton".
However, the royal couple refused, because “dumb” appears in the name and they feared teasing, according to a palace insider.
But what now?
Did Harry and Meghan want a title for Archie or not?
All tactics in the Oprah interview?
Harry and Meghan accuse Palace employees of telling lies
As can now be read in the supplemented biography, Palast employees were specifically instructed to spread rumors in the press that Harry and Meghan would not value a title for Archie.
But the exact opposite, as described with Oprah, was the case.
Allegedly, the employees were hired by another senior royal to spread the "lie".
Whether or not this is the same person who raised concerns about skin color does not seem to be apparent from the additions to the book.
However, it should underline once again that systematic and racist action against the couple is said to have taken place.
Harry and Meghan apparently have close ties to book authors
According to the
Mirror
all the additions to the biography are said to have been made because the reaction to the allegations in the interview did not turn out as hoped. According to an anonymous source, the Queen's statements were too vague and little, even if she was shocked. The Queen did not take full responsibility and the statement "Memories can differ" did not go down well with followers of Harry and Meghan. And probably not with Harry and Meghan either. Although they also did not authorize these biography additions, it is still said that the two authors have a close relationship with the two ex-royals, which is why many experts generally see the biography as a direct attack by Meghan and Harry. Whether or not the two of them will be involved, one thing is certain,The new edition also has renewed explosive potential.
