About This Book

INSTANT INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER * ONE OF THE TOP 10 BEST-SELLING ROYAL BIOGRAPHIES OF ALL TIMEWhen news of the budding romance between a beloved English prince and an American actress broke, it captured the world's attention and sparked an international media frenzy. But while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have continued to make headlines – from their engagement, wedding, and birth of their son Archie to their unprecedented decision to step back from their royal lives – few know the true story of Harry and Meghan.For the very first time, FINDING FREEDOM goes beyond the headlines to reveal unknown details of Harry and Meghan's life together, dispelling the many rumours and misconceptions that plague the couple on both sides of the pond. As members of the select group of reporters that cover the British Royal Family and their engagements, Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand have witnessed the young couple's lives as few outsiders can.With unique access and written with the participation of those closest to the couple, FINDING FREEDOM is an honest, up-close, and disarming portrait of a confident, influential, and forward-thinking couple who are unafraid to break with tradition, determined to create a new path away from the spotlight, and dedicated to building a humanitarian legacy that will make a profound difference in the world.

Reviews

"he book says little about how the Windsors — as opposed to aides — viewed Meghan as a person of color."

Autumn Brewington· The Washington Post Read review ↗ Near the Top

"Here she is presented as the independent woman who emboldened him to stand up for himself and do whatever it took to get what he wanted: a life outside the Firm."

Tariro Mzezewa· The New York Times Read review ↗ Maybe Someday

"This means the reader is subjected to the Sylvie Krin style of writing that is de rigueur in the genre (I could just about stomach Harry and his 'famed ginger locks', but details of his and Meghan's glamping trip to Botswana, on which 'their days were spent getting closer to nature and their evenings, closer to each other' made me briefly furious that the book hadn't come with a health warning)."

Hadley Freeman· The Guardian Read review ↗ Maybe Someday

"we get the pure, undiluted voice of H and M (as their staff call them)."

Valentine Low· The Times (UK) Read review ↗ Maybe Someday

"Did she ever do anything unkind, ill-judged or plain wrong?"

Anne McElvoy· The Evening Standard Read review ↗ Bottom of the Pile
