Prince Harry will be sharing his story in his upcoming memoir. It was announced on Monday that the Duke of Sussex, 36, is writing an “intimate and heartfelt memoir” that will be published by Penguin Random House. “I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become,” Meghan Markle ’s husband said in a statement.

The Duke’s book, which is tentatively scheduled to be released in late 2022, will cover the royal’s “lifetime in the public eye from childhood to the present day, including his dedication to service, the military duty that twice took him to the frontlines of Afghanistan, and the joy he has found in being a husband and father,” according to a press release.

Prince William’s brother will also “offer an honest and captivating personal portrait, one that shows readers that behind everything they think they know lies an inspiring, courageous, and uplifting human story.”
Per the press release, Harry will be donating proceeds from the book to charity. An audiobook edition will also be released by Penguin Random House Audio.
