Meghan Markle has held off writing a book… but did the royal family just force her hand?
According to new RadarOnline.com intel on Monday, the Duchess of Sussex is considering the ultimate revenge on her in-laws — exposing them all in another tell-all! Her possible change of heart — and change of tactics — is all thanks to Prince Harry‘s failed legal battle for police protection in the UK, a fight he believes he could have won if he had his family’s support.

A source claimed Meghan feels that the royals are trying to bleed them of their finances, as evidenced by the fact they wouldn’t help out with the 40-year-old’s lawsuit. An insider broke it down like this:
“Meghan didn’t want Harry to pursue an appeal because if he lost, he would be required to cover legal costs for both sides. But there was no talking him out of it. He was determined to make a point and he truly believed the court would side with him.”
It doesn’t help that, as this insider sees it, the Duke never stood a real chance at victory:
“It’s especially infuriating because Harry assumed it was going to be a fair and balanced decision, but now it appears it was biased and a waste of time and money.”
A waste of a LOT of money! The confidant detailed:
“This $2 million bill puts a huge amount of pressure on Markle as well as Prince Harry to make up for the revenue loss. They already run a tight ship financially and don’t have a spare couple of million just sitting in the bank. It must be taken from investments, which will now cost them additional fees.”
Yeesh. That is a brutal loss… But with heartbreak often comes revenge, and the Suits alum is looking for just that, per this report.
The source went on to claim that the Confessions of a Female Founder podcast host is now strongly considering finally writing that highly-anticipated tell-all of hers to protect them from a financial crisis! The insider pointed out:
“It’s something that’s been dangled in front of her since they settled in California.”
She’s always shut down the suggestions, even as recently as in an interview on her pal Jamie Kern Lima‘s podcast in late April, in which the 43-year-old insisted she’s “got a lot more life to live before” she’s ready to do so. And yet, maybe she’s changed her mind? Or perhaps figured a Part One wouldn’t be so bad? The source sure thinks so:
“She kept putting it off, but now she may have no choice. Someone’s got to pay the hefty legal bill plus all their other costs — the mortgage, living expenses and their security team in Montecito. It’s easy to imagine that putting out her own story, in exchange for a huge paycheck, is starting to look more tempting.”
Sure, she just launched her As Ever products and new TV show and podcast, but is any of that really as lucrative as one explosive book from her? Yeah, we don’t think so! Not at this point, anyway.
But if she does go down this route, it’ll be the end of any reconciliation dreams:
“For Meghan, there’s no reason to hold back now that things have become so toxic with the royals, but Harry must realize she is building a wall between him and his family that he will never be able to scale.”
While Harry may claim he wants to reconcile with his family, last we heard he was considering the idea of changing his family’s last name to Spencer after his late mother Princess Diana. So, uh, it seems like he’s pretty much done with his living relatives at this point! So maybe some extra cash to go along with that family feud wouldn’t be so bad right about now??
Based on Meghan’s comments, it seems pretty unlikely that she’d be ready to do this, but hey, we wouldn’t put it past her either. Harry was sure quick to release his book after the royal exit! If they’re desperate enough for the money, it’s certainly possible! But again, of course, grain of salt and all that…
