A Tory councillor has lashed out at Prince Harry after it was revealed his new book will published on January 10. Conservative politician Susan Hall, member of the London Assembly, said the Duke of Sussex could damage his own family – his wife, Meghan Markle, and children – with the book, and wished he “finally grew up and realised we must not bite the hand that fed us”.

Ms Hall told Express.co.uk: “If the rumours about the content of the book are to be believed, it could damage his own family.

“Families are very precious and he may well wish that he had kept ‘his’ truth – ‘his’ being in the inverted commas because Meghan Markle is always going on about her truth.

“I certainly wish he would finally grow up and realise that he should not bite the hand that fed him.”

Earlier, reacting to the news that the Prince’s book will reportedly be released on January 10, the politician said she hoped Harry and Meghan are stripped of their royal titles.

Ms Hall wrote on Twitter: “If it’s as bad as some predict then I hope his titles will be removed from him and his wife. He has earnt off the back of our Royal Family for long enough.”

The New York Times revealed the much-anticipated publication date, citing industry sources.

Commenting on the news, Mail Online columnist Richard Eden said the date was a “strange one”.

He noted in a post on Twitter that January 10 was “too late for the lucrative Christmas market”. The book will be published by Penguin Random House.

Upon announcing the deal, the publisher last year shared a statement from the Duke of Sussex, in which he said: “I’m writing this not as the prince I was born but as the man I have become.

“I’ve worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story – the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned – I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think.

“I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my life so far and excited for people to read a firsthand account of my life that’s accurate and wholly truthful.”

Though the release date has been revealed, speculation is bound to continue over the contents of the prince’s memoir, with royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams telling the Mail: “If it had anything sensational it would be tasteless.”

The contents of the book are understood to have been somewhat “watered down” following the death of the Queen, according to the Daily Star.
