It is no secret that royal content always breaks the top charts. The same was proved correct once again by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle with their anti-royal tell-all projects, starting with Netflix’s six-part docuseries and memoir, Spare. After spending consecutive weeks as the top 1 New York bestseller, Prince Harry’s memoir had a lot to Spare.

Nevertheless, if it has not appeased your appetite for more royal content, Spare is not the only option. There have been various books and novellas written about the life and times of the royals. However, some handpicked them actually provide a naked insight into the Palace doors. One such book, named Royals at War, The Untold Story of Harry and Meghan’s Shocking Split with the House of Windsor by Dylan Howard, is available for the readers.

As the name suggests, the book primarily focuses on the Sussexes’ perspective side of the story. Narrating from scratch, the author extensively portrayed the differences and disputes between the Sussexes and the rest of the family. Through highly confidential interviews with Palace insiders and aides, Dylan Howard puts into words the ghastly experiences of Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle.

Not only does it talk of the Duke and the Duchess, but it also gives an instance of a similar situation way back in royal history. Long before Prince Harry denounced royalty for the sake of standing with his wife, King Edward VIII set the stage in the year 1936 as he abdicated the throne for falling in love with American Wallis Simpson. 

What else does the book talk about apart from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle?
