With Meghan Markle continuing to make a name for herself in Hollywood, fans are still holding out hope she will one day release a tell-all memoir.
Her husband, Prince Harry, sent shockwaves around the world when he released his debut memoir, Spare, in which the Duke of Sussex spilled explosive royal family secrets.
While Meghan has yet to announce a book, fans hope she will one day release a memoir of her own. Amid the speculation, celebrity ghostwriter Joshua Lisec told The Express US that Meghan could make a lot of money from writing a book—but only if it’s not a typical memoir.
“If it’s a memoir mashup/how to, I would guess that her advance would be somewhere between £4-9 million ($5-12 million) in my estimation,” he said.
The expert then explained what he meant by a “memoir mashup.” Lisec said it’s when the author “tells episodes of their life but it’s in the service of a self-help category, a how-to, a personal development.”
The writer suggested Meghan’s memoir mashup would “have potential to give Spare a run for its success money.”
Lisec said it’s possible Meghan could write about “finding your own identity as a woman who’s potentially overshadowed by previous relationships,” whether that’s friendships, family relationships, or past romances.
He continued, “It’s sort of a find your voice, claim your identity as a woman and so the selling point is it’s Meghan’s memoir and it has more broader appeal behind her super fans.”
He also suggested she write about her marriage to Harry and create a self-help book titled “How to have a feminist marriage.”
Lisec explained Meghan could open up about “that sort of a feminist dynamic is what we see. And I’m sure there are a number of people in the world who would be curious how to cultivate a relationship like that and how to raise children like that and travel.”

The ghost writer suggested, “It can be a sort of a feminist marriage, feminist parenting sort of book that would be in the context of a memoir mashup and that would probably sell exceedingly well because there are a significant number of progressive readers in the world and she would then be able to own that market and she could become the icon of that.”
Lisec also believes it’s extremely likely Meghan will release a memoir very soon. “I would give it about a 60-70% chance that we’ll see a Meghan Markle memoir in three years or less,” he predicted.
Lisec concluded, “Regardless of what she would write or publish, her fans are going to love it and her critics are likely going to pan it. We can certainly predict that with 100% accuracy in advance.”
