Prince Harry could avoid this summer's Platinum Jubilee celebrations because he 'won't be able to face' the Royal Family after writing a secret-spilling book about them, according to a royal expert.The Duke of Sussex will release his memoir later this year, promising to tell an "accurate and wholly truthful" account of his "highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned".His announcement of the ghost-written book in a $20million (£15million) deal reportedly blindsided his family as the 37-year-old royal added: “I’m writing this not as the Prince I was born but as the man I have become."Rumours have swirled in the last few months that Harry, who now lives in California with Meghan Markle and his two children, would snub the Queen's official Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June and opt to stay in America instead.His presence at the events was put into additional doubt in January when he demanded 'unprecedented' protection from the Metropolitan Police over fears for his own safety — which he is no longer entitled to as an ex-royal.Now, royal biographer Tom Bower has claimed that the plea for police protection is an "excuse" that hides his reluctance to see his family before he drops the bombshell book.He told Closer magazine: “I think the notion that he’s worried about his own security and needs the Met Police is an excuse, and that, sadly, we won’t see him or Meghan back in the UK anytime soon."
