Prince Harry is reportedly thrilled with his recent court appearance and is now working on a second tell-all book, according to David Furnish, husband of Sir Elton John.
Furnish revealed that Harry was pleased with the way things went during his eight-hour cross-examination in the phone hacking court case against the Mirror’s publishers.
Speaking to Sky News’ Beth Rigby, Furnish stated that Harry was doing exceptionally well after the grueling court session earlier this month.
“We’re in fairly regular contact,” Furnish said, emphasizing their close relationship.
However, he also mentioned that Harry would occasionally reach out to them, sometimes whining and crying, particularly when he wanted something like private jets and beach houses.
Furnish acknowledged the media’s criticism of Harry, highlighting the fact that he is taking on the media industry itself.
He emphasized that what actually happens in the courtroom can often differ greatly from what is portrayed in the newspapers.
Furnish’s comments suggest that the media’s perception may not accurately reflect Harry’s experience during the trial.
In another development, reports have surfaced that Harry had plans to interview prominent figures such as Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump, and Mark Zuckerberg about their upbringing and childhood traumas on a Spotify podcast.
Harry discussed his ideas with multiple producers and production companies, expressing his desire to delve into the controversial figures’ childhoods and explore how they became the individuals they are today.
Additionally, he reportedly wanted to have a conversation about religion with Pope Francis, leaving executives puzzled.
These revelations come in the wake of Harry and Meghan Markle losing their £15 million Spotify deal.
The couple faced a tumultuous week, with allegations of fabricated interviews against Meghan Markle and derogatory remarks from Spotify executive Bill Simmons, who referred to the Sussexes as “grifters.”
The emergence of Harry’s ambitious podcast plans further adds to the scrutiny surrounding their failed podcast venture.
Despite earlier claims that Harry would cease conducting tell-all interviews criticizing the royal family, it appears he had additional podcast ideas in mind.
One show concept focused on fatherhood, while another aimed to explore societal conversations, touching on topics such as climate change and religion.
However, the practicality of interviewing guests like Putin and Zuckerberg, who are not known for opening up about their childhood traumas, raised doubts among Harry’s podcast team.
As the Sussexes’ Spotify deal collapsed without any of Harry’s podcast ideas coming to fruition, reports indicate that he is now working on a second tell-all book.
His first memoir, “Spare,” caused a seismic shift with its major revelations about the royal family’s private lives.
Undeterred by Spotify’s decision to drop him and Meghan Markle from their $20 million contract, Harry is determined to recoup the lost income through his writing.
Richard Fitzwilliams, a royal commentator, shared insights into Prince Harry’s future book plans, stating that if they fail to appease Random House with a compelling manuscript, they risk losing out on future book deals.
Harry has mentioned the possibility of revising a first draft of “Spare” by removing 400 pages, suggesting that the royals would not object to another publication.
In conclusion, Prince Harry’s recent court appearance has left him feeling satisfied, and he is now channeling his energy into writing a second tell-all book.
While facing challenges in his podcast aspirations, Harry remains determined to share his experiences and perspectives, ensuring that his voice continues to be heard.
