Prince Harry’s book deal has been the subject of much speculation in recent months, with reports of a $20m (£17m) advance for his upcoming book, Spare. The book is due to be released in September 2021 and is expected to be a collection of stories from the Duke of Sussex’s life.
The publisher of the book, Penguin Random House, has not officially confirmed the figure, but it is widely believed to be in the region of $20m. This figure is further supported by reports from ET Canada, which suggest that the book deal consists of four editions, with a total price tag of between $35m and $40m (£28m-33m).
If these figures are accurate, it would mean that Prince Harry would be making an estimated $10m per book. This would make him one of the highest-paid authors in the world, and certainly one of the most successful authors in the royal family.
It is unclear how much of the advance will be paid upfront, and how much will be paid in royalties. However, it is likely that Prince Harry will receive a significant amount of money for each book sold.
The success of Prince Harry’s book will depend on a number of factors, including the quality of the writing, the promotion of the book, and the public’s interest in the Duke of Sussex’s life. If the book is a success, it could potentially earn Harry millions of dollars in royalties.
It is clear that Prince Harry is set to make a significant amount of money from his book deal. While the exact figure is yet to be confirmed, it is likely to be in the region of $10m per book. This would make him one of the highest-paid authors in the world, and certainly one of the most successful authors in the royal family.
