Five revelations Prince Harry could unleash on Royals in his new memoir as he promises to be ‘wholly truthful’
PRINCE Harry has vowed to be "wholly truthful" in his upcoming memoir.
The duke, 36, announced he had been writing a new book on his life - with reports the news has already triggered a "tsunami of fear” in the palace over what the prince could reveal.
He is expected to detail his experiences growing up as a royal, his relationship with wife Meghan, leaving the Firm and moving to California as well as raising his kids.
These are some of the explosive revelations Harry may make in his memoir.
Who made the racist comments about Harry's son?
During the couple's interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this year, Meghan Markle claimed that there had been conversations with Harry and a "family" member about their unborn son and what colour his skin would be.
She also said the couple's son Archie wasn't made a prince after "concerns and conversations" about "how dark" his skin would be when he was born.
But the 39-year-old declined to say who had started those conversations, saying it would be "damaging" for them.
Harry said he would "never share" the full details of the discussion but that he was asked at the start of his relationship with Meghan, how dark the skin of their children might be.
However, he may choose to reveal all in his book.

What is Harry's side of his rift with William?
Harry and his brother William have been feuding - with reports the brothers fell out over Meghan.
The Sussexes made waves when it was announced they would be moving out of Kensington Palace and into Windsor's Frogmore Cottage - amid speculation that a rift had developed between the two couples because "Kate and Meghan are very different people".
Despite reuniting and standing shoulder-to-shoulder earlier this month to unveil a statue of their mother, Princess Diana, those close to the royals believe Harry and William's rift may never be healed.
Another source close to the brothers claims Harry is still an "outsider" as things are "still too raw" for William.
"Despite William and Harry coming together for the sole cause of commemorating their mother’s legacy, Harry is very much on the outside," the insider told the Mirror.
“They put on a show, did what they had to do to make sure the day went without a hitch and said goodbye.
"It was nothing more, there was nothing to discuss. Things are still far too raw for William and other members of the family to entertain Harry, so it's best to let things lie for the moment.”
Did he tell the Queen about naming his daughter Lillibet before she was born?
There was some controversy over whether Harry and Meghan asked the Queen if they could use her private nickname Lilibet for their baby girl born this year.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex admitted they bought Lilibet Diana and Lili Diana internet domains before Harry spoke to his gran.
Harry and Meghan insisted they snapped them up to stop profiteers cashing in.
But Penny Junor, the prince’s biographer, said: “He clearly hasn’t consulted the Queen at that point. It is common courtesy to ask, and this is no ordinary grandmother — this is the Queen.”
The Sussexes threatened to sue the BBC after it quoted a source as saying they “never asked” permission to name their daughter Lilibet.
And although the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared relaxed and carefree on their Windsor wedding day, the royal expert writes: "The weeks leading up to the wedding had been far more tense for both Harry and Meghan than most people realised."
However, the biographer claims "whether these treatments had much impact on Harry is debatable" as he continued to grow more short-tempered with royal staff in the weeks leading up to the wedding.
Who stopped Meghan from getting support as she struggled with mental health?
Meghan broke down in tears as she revealed she told Prince Harry she "didn’t want to be alive anymore" and had suicidal thoughts in the interview with Oprah.
The Duchess of Sussex said she begged for help from the Firm after struggling with her mental health - saying it was her husband who "saved" her.
Meghan claimed she had been told she would not be able to seek help as it "wouldn't be good for the institution."
Breaking down in tears, pregnant Meghan said: "I just didn't see a solution.

And she said when she reached out for help with the Palace's Human Resources team, she was told because she was not a paid employee, she could not be supported.
