I wonder how much inheritance tax Charles will have to pay from his late mothers’ estate?
You will never know because the Queen's will will be sealed.

Charles paid tax on earnings from the Duchy of Cornwall while Prince.
The Duchy employs many people.
They have even built an eco housing estate.

He’s very wealthy.
I said to Mrs B if I was him, I’d ask Harry how much he was getting for the book and match it not to publish.
I feel that this could be the final straw and there would be no going back when it’s published.
It’s an absolute shame when a family are at odds.
I couldn’t stand it if it was my family.

Nor me. Mind you I'm not sure any publisher would pay for my memoirs.

I’m not sure if Harry can stop the publication now but it would be a good move by the firm to try and stop his memoirs being published, especially as he has said his book will contain the truth and nothing but the truth. :thumbup:

I would guess there will only be one loser when it is published and that will be the Sussexes. US public opinion is already turning against them, and if that continues then funds from Netflix and others will quickly dry up.

It is my firm belief that Harry could if he so wished tarnish the Monarchy beyond repair so they would be well advised to start being nice to him and his lovely wife Meghan…I mean wouldn’t it be awful if Harry decided to revel what he knows about the rumours surrounding William and Rose Hanbury? :shock:

With all the interesting things that Harry is said to have done, no wonder the papers keep feeding the fire.
Myself, can not be bothered with it all.
Don't worry, be happy

If your firm belief is only as good as your racing tips, then I don't think the firm will have any problems at all.

Since that's already been all.over Cosmopolitan as well as social media anything Harry can add is not going to be worth diddly squat.

I may inquire now about the Royal toilet rolls that will become available when tons of unsold copies of his memoirs are pulped.
