But despite claims that she has been worked-up about the content of the book, a close friend to the Duchess said that the book has barely even registered on Meghan’s radar.
Speaking to Vanity Fair, they said: “Meghan has not seen Samantha for years so the idea that she is worried about the book is nonsense.
“Meghan barely knows Samantha, they haven’t seen each other for nearly 20 years.”
The book, called “The Diary of Princess Pushy’s Sister: Part 1,” is meant to delve into the life of the royal – despite Samantha last seeing her half-sister Meghan in 2008.
But according to sources, Meghan is also thinking of writing a book – and has had numerous offers from publishing houses.
The source said: “Meghan has some very serious book deals on the table.
“They are all up for consideration.”
NOVEL APPROACH
Samantha Markle‘s autobiography has sensationally claimed Meghan and the Royal Family should have postponed the wedding so Thomas Markle could attend after he had a heart attack.
She also claims Meghan was “controlling” towards their father, and has promised readers that they will find the “truth is stranger than fiction”.
In one passage, Samantha writes that her dad sounded upset when she had called to check in with him in the lead up to the wedding.
She wrote: “I said, ‘Dad, what’s going on, what’s wrong?”
“He said, ‘This is really weird, she’s not the same. When Harry is in the room, she is very sweet and a different person, but when he steps out of the room, she is mean and controlling.'”
Samantha, who is wheelchair-bound and lives in Florida, completed the highly-anticipated memoir four years after saying she was writing it.
And she says she’s already begun a second book.
The book was released in the US via American bookselling giant Barnes and Noble and is currently out of stock online.
Meghan’s team has not yet publicly commented on the book’s contents and did not respond to The Celeb Report’s request to comment.
