Prince Harry and Meghan Markle fear Sarah Ferguson Tell-All Memoir Deal

According to insiders, the possibility that Ferguson will now press her version of the royal story into print as she searches for a steady income has deeply upset Harry, 41, and his wife Markle, 44.

An insider told us: “There is every possibility that Sarah will formalize a deal and put her account of events on paper for a very substantial advance. The very prospect of that has set the nerves ringing because once it is printed there is no control over the story or containing its fallout.”

The source added: “Harry and Meghan would be keeping a close eye on developments. They are well aware that a memoir of that magnitude would inevitably revisit the most controversial chapters of recent royal history, and they are concerned about how their actions and private exchanges could be framed.”

“Ferguson has never been known for her diplomatic formulations or softening her opinions for the sake of harmony. She tends to speak clearly and emotionally about her experiences,” the insider added. “That unpredictability, the sense that she could be outspoken to the point of discomfort, is exactly what upsets the Sussexes and indeed the entire royal family.”
