Sam Kashner: Last News

Prince Harry is apparently “insisting” that his memoir is published in November, according to one royal biographer. The Duke of Sussex’s highly-anticipated book had been scheduled for release later this year, but many royal fans have begun speculating that following the death of Queen Elizabeth II the book’s release may be rescheduled.

Royal writer Tom Bower has claimed that Prince Harry gave Meghan Markle a list of three things she couldn't talk about during her 2017 interview with Vanity Fair journalist Sam Kashner.The interview, which took place just two months before she and Harry announced their engagement, was supposed to be focused on her mixed-race background and her role on the TV show Suits. During the interview, Meghan appeared to attempt to steer the conversation away from her relationship with Harry - something which the Prince reportedly asked her to do.

Vanity Fair reporter Sam Kashner is setting the record straight on his 2017 interview with Meghan Markle, which was written about in a new book by British biographer Tom Bower, “Revenge: Meghan, Harry, and the War Between the Windsors.”

An excerpt from a bombshell new book about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, published in the London Times, claims that the Duchess of Sussex wasn’t happy with a Vanity Fair journalist after her entire October 2017 cover story‘s focus shifted from her acting and philanthropy to her relationship with Harry.

Tom Bower’s hard-hitting book about the “war” between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the rest of the Royal Family have emerged.They include the claim that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were left "festering with fury" after their plans for Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee weekend were all scuppered by the Palace. In the book, Bower writes that Harry asked Her Majesty the Queen to help him secure a "prominent" position for himself and Meghan, but was blocked at every turn by Prince Charles.READ MORE: Harry and Meghan to be 'regally' snubbed by Kate and William on US visit, expert claimsThe couple flew to Netherlands for the Invictus Games “but festering was their fury that the Palace had refused all of their demands for a prominent role at the Jubilee in return for returning to Britain with their children,” Bower says.Bower’s book goes into forensic detail about Meghan’s relationships with Vanity Fair magazine in the US and British Vogue.Bower says that as part of an in-depth profile with Vanity Fair shortly after her relationship with Harry became public, the soon-to-be Duchess insisted that she be presented “as a philanthropist and activist”.However, Bower writes, there was one problem: “Vanity Fair’s scrupulous researchers could find no evidence of her global philanthropy and activism."Meghan also reportedly refused to allow any mention of her royal boyfriend in the article, saying she refused to be defined by her relationships.Sam Kashner, a long-standing contributing editor at the magazine, “understood that the critical issue of Harry had been vetoed,” Bower saysBut the eventual publication of the article was a disaster, says Bower.

A leading investigative journalist has claimed Prince Harry chose to ignore "the warnings that Meghan [Markle] spelled trouble".Tom Bower has suggested that the Duke of Sussex, 37, had decided to ignore the fact Meghan, 40, had spoken to journalist Sam Kashner for Vanity Fair in 2017 about their relationship. At the time their engagement was still a secret to the world and her decision to speak to the press came after Harry had "ordered" her to "maintain a tight-lipped silence about sensitive subjects". Mr Bower makes the claims in his upcoming book, Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors.

Meghan Markle reportedly called her PR team "in hysterics" following Buckingham Palace’s reaction to an interview about Prince Harry. A new book, which Meghan was reportedly dreading the release of, claims that the Palace was upset when she spoke out about her relationship with Prince Harry during her 2017 Vanity Fair cover interview.

It’s not been a good few days for the Royal Family. In a week the monarchy machine hoped would be dominated by celebrations for the Duchess of Cornwall’s 75th birthday and all-round admiration for her good works, the headlines have been dominated by other events. 

Meghan Markle became "hysterical" after a Vanity Fair cover story focused mainly on her relationship, a new book claims.
