Prince Harry‘s memoir is reportedly finished with a final manuscript recently being signed off by lawyers, ready for it to hit shelves during the Christmas period.
The 37 year old has teamed up with ghostwriter JR Moehringer for the project, and according to The Sun, Moehringer finished the manuscript in recent weeks.
“The manuscript has been finished and gone through all of the legal processes. It’s done and out of Harry’s hands.
“The publishing date has been pushed back once but it is on track for the end of the year,” a publishing source told the publication.

Publisher Penguin Random House is said to be hoping that Harry’s book will be published in time for Thanksgiving and Christmas, allowing it to be marketed as a gift.
In a statement last year, Penguin Random House opened up about the upcoming book in a statement, which read: “In an intimate and heartfelt memoir from one of the most fascinating and influential global figures of our time.
“Prince Harry will share, for the very first time, the definitive account of the experiences, adventures, losses, and life lessons that have helped shape him.
“Covering his 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, Prince Harry will 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.”

The dad-of-two has remained mostly tight-lipped about his latest project however, only revealing that he is “writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become”.
He also told how it will include “the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned” and he aims for it to be “heartfelt and intimate”.
Reports claim that Harry has been researching his late mother Princess Diana’s life for his memoir.

It’s also said that the only member of the family he consulted about the book was his grandmother the Queen, 96.
Harry apparently spoke to Her Majesty last summer before making a public announcement about the project shortly after.
