Meghan has now uncorked the bottle, and unleashed the other Harry, the Harry that we are now all witnessing, and don't like.

Prince Harry
Prince Harry announced his memoir on July 19, offering an ‘accurate and wholly truthful’ first-hand account of his life.
In a statement, the Duke said:
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.
Penguin Random House said they were ‘thrilled’ to be working with Prince Harry on this latest project, branding him as ‘one of the most fascinating and influential global figures of our time.’
The memoir is expected to cover the Prince's childhood, military career and time as a working royal, as well as his new role as a father and husband.
While details of the publishing deal have not been made public, it is believed that Prince Harry received an advance of $20million US dollars.
Pulitzer prize-winner, J. R. Moehringer will ghost write the memoir, which has reportedly been in the process of development for the last year.
The book will be available in both digital and print formats, along with an audiobook.
