Following Queen Elizabeth's death, Prince Harry wants to tone down his explosive memoir because of concern that his final draft "may not go down too well" with the royal family.

Following the Queen Elizabeth II's passing, a source claims that Prince Harry is "desperately" attempting to alter his tell-all book.

The Penguin Random House publication of the "intimate and passionate" book will be postponed due to the period of royal mourning. With top royals including King Charles III and Prince William reportedly becoming increasingly unhappy about the memoir's contents, it is now expected to be released the following year.

Publishers Might Ask Prince Harry to Add About Queen Elizabeth II' Death

In light of his grandmother's passing, an insider now claims the Duke of Sussex is desperate to have the book polished, but warns that it may be too late.

Prince Harry has thrown a wrench in the works because he is keen to get it perfected in light of the Queen's passing, her funeral, and his father Charles taking the throne, a source claimed. The revelation of the book sent a tsunami of terror through royal circles, but Prince Harry has sworn that it will be a "truthful and totally true chronicle of his life."

Following the Queen Elizabeth II's funeral on Monday, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are returning to the US after attempts were made "on both sides" to mend fences with their royal kin, a friend said. King Charles III, Prince William, and Prince Harry reunited after the death of the monarch as they grieved, followed her casket in many processions, and attended her funeral along with their wives.

Although the publishers are said to want the book to be on the stores in the US by Thanksgiving on November 24 so that it will target the crucial Christmas market, no publication date for the book has yet been made public.

It is still possible that the publishers will want the Duke to add information about what transpired after the Queen's death, when there were evident tensions between Prince Harry, his brother Prince William, and the King over his own role in the events leading up to the funeral and that of the Duchess of Sussex. This would not mean that the publishers would want the Duke to water down the memoir.

It comes after new allegations regarding the Duchess were published in royal author Valentine Low's book 'Courtiers, The Hidden Power Behind the Crown'. According to the report, Meghan Markle's advisers referred to her as a "narcissistic psychopath" and themselves as the Sussex Survivors Club.

Royal household officials believed there might be a compromise for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to continue with part-time royal duties before they stepped down from their positions, but the late Queen rejected the notion, according to Low.

There were five various options explored, including giving the couple a month off each year to spend however they pleased. Some senior courtiers even thought they could use the same model in the future for junior members of the Royal family.

The Queen emphasized that the pair could not do any royal duties at all if they were unable to follow the restrictions placed on all working members of the Royal family, which meant they could not accept paid employment, as per Mirror.

Prince Harry Thinks He Would be 'Irrelevant' When Prince George Turns 18

In the meantime, a recent book claims that the Duke of Sussex was keen to make a difference before Prince George turned 18 because he was concerned he would lose his relevance after that. Prince Harry reportedly felt irritated that his advisors were holding him back when he wanted to get involved in the same fields as his brother, the Prince of Wales, according to a new book by The Times' royal writer Valentine Low.

Low spoke to members of the royal family and according to an excerpt from The Times, Low was informed that Prince Harry had long-standing "anxiety that his time was running out" while he was still a working royal. The Duke's staff allegedly tried to reassure him that if he laid the proper foundations now, he would still have an impact well into his later years, but their efforts failed to calm his fears, according to the book.

Low claims that some of Prince Harry's advisors spent much of their time talking him down because it would not fit into the bigger picture of what the three of them - Prince William, Kate Middleton, and Prince Harry - were trying. Prince Harry allegedly harbored a great mistrust of the courtiers at Buckingham House and his father's palace and his desire to establish his legacy in the same areas as Prince William could lead to tensions, Independent reported.
