A cautionary voice has emerged, advising the Duke of Sussex against delving into the royal family conflict once more through a potential sequel to his first memoir, Spare.
The revelations made by the Duke in his initial book sent shockwaves reverberating worldwide.
Within its pages, he delved into his experiences as a public figure from a tender age, shedding light on his encounters with substances and unraveling the breakdown of relationships with his father, the king, and his brother, the Prince of Wales.
Renowned ghostwriter Joshua Lizak, in conversation with Mirror US, emphasized the importance for the Duke to steer clear of revisiting familial disputes in his writing and instead focus on alternative avenues.
Is there a desire within him to pen a second memoir, and if so, what aspirations drive him?
Does he seek notoriety through family turmoil, pondered Joshua.
However, he dismissed the notion, deeming it unwise to resurrect or perpetuate royal family discord, or to contrive and sensationalize familial conflicts.
Drawing parallels to President John F. Kennedy’s memoir compilation, Joshua suggested that the Duke could meticulously craft his narrative, carefully selecting the facets of his persona to portray.
The question lingers – what direction would the Duke, along with his agent and a potential publisher, choose to steer the narrative?
Could a prospective title like “Spares” encapsulate a memoir-like anthology chronicling the tales of the royal dynasty’s subsequent heirs over centuries?
Contrary to rekindling past controversies, Joshua proposed a more constructive approach for the Duke’s literary endeavors.
Is the Duke’s ambition to garner fame through reigniting family drama in a narrative that only serves to exacerbate existing tensions, or does he aim to leave behind a lasting legacy?
Joshua advocated for a reflective approach, urging the Duke to compile short stories that offer insights into his life experiences.
Furthermore, Joshua highlighted the potential for the Duke to utilize a second memoir as a platform to spotlight his forthcoming projects.
Speculating on the prospect of the Duke delving into a darker chapter of his past to advocate for a cause, Joshua posited that such a narrative could pave the way for a career transition and amplify advocacy efforts.
By weaving personal experiences into his writing, the Duke could seamlessly transition into a role as an advocate or activist, championing pertinent issues close to his heart.
In conclusion, the path forward for the Duke remains shrouded in uncertainty, with the decision on whether to embark on a memoir sequel laden with considerations and implications.
