It’s been a major talking point for the past year, ever since Meghan Markle made a certain announcement.

However, it seems that the former royal, also known as the Duchess of Sussex, has become apprehensive about pursuing this particular idea.

As we approach 2024, she is now reconsidering her plans.

So, what exactly am I referring to?

Good morning, everyone!

How are you?

Christmas is just around the corner.

Are you all prepared?

Don’t tell me you’re slacking off and haven’t finished your tasks yet.

Remember when people used to spend weeks preparing for the festivities?

Nowadays, luxury food items flood the supermarkets.

It’s like that scene from Victor Victoria, where you stand at the window, admiring the expensive items, but waiting for them to go on sale.

Have you noticed how everything comes in fancy red boxes with gold decorations like hollies and ivies?

They look appealing, but the price tags quickly change our minds.

They’re just too expensive.

Now, let’s get back to the royal story of the day.

What makes it fascinating is this ongoing issue that has plagued the British monarchy for quite some time.

It all started when Meghan gave that infamous interview to The Cut, a relatively unknown New York magazine.

She talked about various things, including her desire to return to Instagram.

Many of her statements didn’t stir much interest among the public.

However, there is something intriguing about this situation.

Meghan has come to realize that writing her memoir, while undoubtedly a lucrative venture for her, will come with its fair share of problems.

Publishers who have already submitted their ideas and plans want every detail.

This is similar to Prince Harry’s book, which he had to delve into deeply personal matters to attract attention and generate sales.

They know that scandalous details are what the tabloids thrive on.

This is where Meghan faces a challenge.

Her story has changed so much over the years, from her humble beginnings at the salad bar sizzler to her self-funded education.

Many people will scrutinize and question these inconsistencies.

Legally, it becomes a complex situation.

Recently, what has truly spooked Meghan is the involvement of her on-again, off-again friend, the author of a book that has failed to make an impact, especially in the Netherlands.

She has witnessed the damage caused by that book’s publication and fears that a similar fate awaits her memoir.

Another significant issue is the need to provide evidence, such as past pictures, to support her stories.

As we know, she is still embroiled in a legal battle with her half-sister Samantha, and it appears that this feud will continue.

It is unlikely that Samantha will back down and accept a settlement, which is what Meghan and Harry are hoping for.

They may even attempt to have the case dismissed altogether.

However, if you were eagerly anticipating Meghan’s memoir, you may have to wait a while longer.

She has realized that in order to release such a book, it would have to be radically different and impervious to criticism.

She likes the idea of a pictorial book showcasing memories of her time in the British monarchy.

However, they know that this concept wouldn’t sell well enough to meet Meghan’s financial expectations, which amount to millions.
