A press release on the Harpers Collins website details how the Duchess of Sussex had a ‘extraordinarily accomplished life’ before marrying Prince Harry.
The book aims to delve into the ‘rom-com fantasy’ of the Duke and Duchess’ relationship, as well as touching on the ‘disturbing drama’ which followed their joyful wedding in May 2018.
The release adds: ‘Theirs was a story that the screenwriters of Hollywood – where Meghan had made her name – could scarcely have imagined.’
The biography promises to ‘pull no punches’ as the author unravels the ‘remarkable and powerful story of this self-made, intelligent American woman with a strong social conscience.’

The Duchess told of the unbearable pressure of life in the spotlight, saying she had ‘no idea’ of the struggles she would deal with as a member of The Firm.
In a candid interview for an ITV documentary, she revealed her friends warned her not to marry Harry because the media focus would ‘destroy your life’, admitting that since the wedding and during her pregnancy she felt ‘vulnerable.’
The searingly honest interviews come following months of controversy involving Meghan and Harry, who came under fire for their privacy demands over Archie’s christening, their use of private jets, and Meghan’s Wimbledon appearance when she banned fans from taking photos.
Since the interviews aired in November, the Sussexes stepped back from life in the royal family.
After initially moving to Canada after stepping down as senior working royals on March 31, the couple have now set up home in California.

News of the latest biography on the couple comes after it emerged another explosive book detailing their troubles will be released this autumn.
Biographer Robert Lacey, a historical consultant for Netflix’s The Crown as well as the author of Majesty, a 1977 study of Queen Elizabeth, has penned Battle of Brothers: William and Harry – the Friendship and the Feuds, set to be released in October.
He told how he was ‘astonished’ and ‘sometimes moved to tears’ by the fresh details of the rift that emerged while he was researching the conflict.
The book explores conflicts that emerge as a result of the heir and the spare dynamic that permeates British aristocracy, and claims that the ‘seeds of damage were sown’ when William and Harry’s parents’ marriage unravelled.
It will also delve into how the relationship between the two brothers has been impacted by their wives – Kate Middleton and Meghan.
It is believed the trigger that caused the rift to develop between William and Harry was when the Duke of Cambridge, 38, advised his younger sibling to ‘take things slow’ when he first began dating Meghan Markle in 2017.
