Meghan Markle Speaks Out on Memoir Rumors After Harry’s Royal Tell-All
Meghan Markle Breaks Silence on Memoir Rumors: “It Might Be Too Soon”
The Duchess of Sussex Talks Books, Food, and Future Writing Plans
Meghan Markle is keeping herself busy post-royal life, and fans have been speculating: Is she working on a memoir to follow Prince Harry’s explosive book Spare?
In a recent podcast conversation, the Duchess of Sussex gave an honest answer — and while she hasn’t ruled it out, she thinks it’s not quite time yet.
Let’s dive into what Meghan had to say, and why fans are eagerly watching her next move.
Meghan Markle Has Already Entered the Literary World
Before any talks of a personal memoir, Meghan has already dabbled in publishing. She released a heartwarming children’s book titled The Bench in 2021 and also contributed to a cookbook, Together: Our Community Cookbook, in 2018 — both of which were well-received.
But after Prince Harry’s tell-all Spare shocked the royal world with deeply personal stories, many wondered if Meghan would follow with a memoir of her own.
Meghan Reveals What She’s Working On Now
In a recent episode of her podcast, Meghan spoke with entrepreneur and billionaire friend Jamie Kern Lima, discussing creativity, writing, and what inspires her right now.
“I love working on everything in this space of hospitality and home and entertaining and food... something like that, I think, would be really fun,” Meghan shared.
She seems focused for now on lifestyle projects — something along the lines of cooking, entertaining, or tips for the modern home. Fans have compared her recent creative interests to the tone of Martha Stewart or Joanna Gaines, suggesting Meghan might be leaning toward lifestyle branding rather than memoir writing — at least for the time being.
Is a Memoir in the Works?
So, will Meghan Markle ever write a memoir?
She answered that directly:
“People are often curious if I’m going to write a memoir... but I’ve got a lot more life to live before I’m there.”
In other words — she’s not saying no, just not now.
This statement didn’t stop royal watchers from speculating. Many believe that if and when she decides to write a memoir, it could reveal never-before-heard details of her time inside the royal family — especially after how candid Spare turned out to be.
Prince Harry's Memoir Set the Stage
Prince Harry’s memoir Spare, released in January 2023, didn’t hold back. He shared personal stories, controversial moments, and deep rifts within the royal household.
Key revelations included:
- His infamous Nazi costume scandal
- A physical altercation with Prince William
- Emotional struggles after the death of Princess Diana
- Behind-the-scenes tension following Meghan’s entry into the royal family
Spare topped best-seller lists and created global headlines — but it also deepened divisions within the British royal family. Many believe a potential Meghan memoir could have an even bigger impact.

Meghan and Harry’s Life After Royal Exit
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were married in May 2018, and for the first two years, they lived within the royal fold. But in January 2020, the couple announced they would step back from royal duties — a move that stunned the public and media alike.
Since then, the couple has relocated to Montecito, California, where they live with their two children: Archie and Lilibet. Their new life includes media production deals, public speaking, podcasting, and humanitarian work — all on their own terms.
What Could Meghan’s Memoir Include?
While nothing has been confirmed, fans believe Meghan’s memoir — whenever it happens — could explore:
- Her early life and Hollywood career
- Challenges entering the royal family as a biracial American woman
- Mental health struggles and public scrutiny
- Her relationship with the British press
- Raising children away from royal expectations
- Her perspective on the infamous Oprah interview
Given her past openness and eloquence, it’s likely any future memoir would strike a balance between personal and powerful.
So, What’s Next for Meghan?
While a memoir isn’t coming just yet, Meghan appears excited about continuing creative and lifestyle projects. Many believe she may launch a cooking or entertaining brand, perhaps with a book or digital series.
For now, she’s choosing to enjoy the present and live her story, not write it — at least not yet.
“I’ve got a lot more life to live before I’m there,” she says. And that’s a line many fans are clinging to with hope.
A Memoir May Be Coming… Eventually
Though Meghan Markle has shut down immediate memoir plans, her words leave the door wide open. Given her global influence, personal story, and natural ability to connect with people, a future memoir would likely be both explosive and inspiring.
For now, fans can look forward to her other ventures — and keep an eye out for that next big announcement.
