With the dust still settling after his last book on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Tom Bower has promised more bombshell revelations about the couple.
As the, often hostile, eyes of the world are always on them, the royal author claims the pair face constant battles in their lives that push them to seek revenge. Bower also reckons Harry and Meghan’s relationship has reached crisis point amid differing points of views after they turned their backs on royal life to move to California.
He said: “I’ve got a lot of new material already and I think the whole world wants new insights. It’s an amazing story, it’s an eye wateringly unique story because it’s unprecedented. This is such a famous couple who are fighting [for themselves] all the time. They are relentless and they are restless, and that’s what makes it so interesting.”
Bower’s first book, Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors, came out in 2022. His plans for a new one come as Harry deals with a bitter breakdown of relations at his Sentibale charity, which he set up in 2006 in memory of his mother, Princess Diana.

He recently embarked on a last-ditch attempt to secure his family’s right to security protection while in the UK. Bower, who has also written unauthorised biographies on Tony Blair, Mohammed Al-Fayed and the Beckhams, claimed Harry, 40, and his wife, 43, have been left deeply hurt.
He added: “They have both been wounded, and what’s fascinating about them is they don’t stop fighting back. And the fight back is just as important as their survival.
“This battle for survival and the fight for revenge is increasing by the week. A lot of people were sceptical of the first book and couldn’t quite believe it. Now more are converted to what I discovered then, and they’ll be fascinated by what I’ve discovered now.
“So much has changed over the last three years and so many new things have come out about them.” Speaking about the couple’s struggle to fit in, Bower said Harry wants a reconciliation with the Royal Family and his dad the King but Meghan has other plans.
He added: “They have a crisis, Meghan wants to be a billionaire celebrity and Harry doesn’t understand that world, other than [understanding that] Meghan wants to be famous.
“He’s spent his whole life never having a penny in his pocket. He’s never regularly travelled on the Tube, never had to worry about having a car or a job. So he doesn’t understand where she’s coming from, which is that she worked phenomenally hard, struggled hard, and was constantly humiliated, and wants the security of finance and status.
“She hasn’t got the status she craves, she hasn’t got the pulling power. He’s stuck in California clinging on to his royal status, as is she. Harry’s thinking is of reconciliation. That’s just totally unrealistic. There is zero chance of reconciliation because there is irreconcilable anger on the part of William and Kate.”

Bower’s first book came out a year after Harry and Meghan’s shock TV interview with Oprah Winfrey. Among the claims in it were that the Queen was relieved when Meghan did not attend the funeral of Prince Philip in April 2021, and that the Duchess was “abrasive” and demanding of her royal staff.
