PRINCE Harry will never publish his memoir as there will be “no way back” to Royal life, an expert has warned.
Tina Brown, a Royal biographer, has said she now doesn’t think the Duke of Sussex‘s tell-all, “explosive” book will ever see the light of day, following the Queen’s death.

Tina, who is the author of The Diana Chronicles and The Palace Papers, was speaking at the Henley Literary Festival in Oxfordshire.
The Telegraph reported Tina said: “They are now in this bind, where they’ve taken all this money and Harry has made this book deal where he’s supposed to spill everything about his horrible life as a royal.
“But now he’s actually tortured about it because he understands there is no way back if he does it.”
She added: “If the book continues, I don’t think there is any way for Harry to return. So my view has always been that the book won’t see the light of day.
“The window is beginning to close but I always thought at some point a deal would be made and Charles would have to pay back the advance to stop Harry writing this book.”
Tina, who is the former editor of Tatler, Vanity Fair and the New Yorker, was one of the last people to see Princess Diana alive, at a lunch in New York in the summer of 1997.
When she was asked what she believed Diana would have given her son if she were alive, Tina said the princess would have advised him to return to the family.
Tina said: “Diana was very pragmatic. I think she would have said to Harry, ‘This isn’t going anywhere. You need to make a deal and find a way to come back.’”
Harry is said to have been secretly working on his memoir for at least two years, but only spoke publicly about it last year.
Last month, in the days after Her Majesty died, sources revealed the prince had delayed the release of book because of the royal mourning period.
Some said the book would not be released until next year, while others said it would be released next month.
Harry, and wife Meghan Markle, are also said to want to edit and delay the streaming of their Netflix series.
Last week sources said the Sussexes have secretly planned a year of reconciliation with the Royal Family – but only after the memoir and Netflix series have come out.
Insiders say Harry and Meghan always avoided criticising the Queen but now want to make changes to the memoir and series because both are too critical of the new King and Queen Consort.
