Meghan Markle has once again fuelled speculation about a potential memoir after offering a carefully worded response during a recent podcast appearance — a reply that neither confirmed nor denied future plans, but left royal watchers reading between the lines.
Speaking in April on a podcast hosted by her close friend Jamie Kern Lima, Meghan was asked directly whether she intended to write a memoir of her own.
Rather than dismissing the idea, she smiled and replied:
“People are often curious whether I’ll write a memoir, but I think I still have a lot of life to live before that time comes.”
The answer was widely interpreted as strategic — measured, ambiguous and deliberate.
A door left firmly open
Royal commentators noted that Meghan’s response avoided any definitive refusal, a contrast to the way senior royals typically shut down speculation outright.
By suggesting that the “time” for a memoir had simply not yet arrived, Meghan appeared to leave the possibility firmly open — a detail that did not go unnoticed in royal circles.
For critics, the phrasing sounded less like a dismissal and more like a pause.
Experts: a memoir may be the next move
Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams told Express.co.uk that a memoir from Meghan Markle remains a very real possibility — particularly given the shifting landscape of the Sussexes’ media ventures.
“Writing a memoir is entirely plausible,” Fitzwilliams said, especially amid reports that Netflix may be scaling back its involvement with the couple.
He added that, commercially, a memoir may be one of the few remaining formats guaranteed to attract global attention.
“The only thing left that would sell is another memoir,” Fitzwilliams said.
Unfinished stories — and untold pages
Fitzwilliams also pointed to Prince Harry’s own book, Spare, as evidence that there may still be significant material yet to be revealed.
Harry previously disclosed that approximately 400 pages were cut from the final manuscript — suggesting that large portions of his story remain unpublished.
“There is still a great deal that has not been told,” Fitzwilliams noted.
“It could now be Meghan’s turn — or even Harry revisiting parts of his childhood he chose not to include the first time.”
Why the timing matters
The speculation comes at a moment when the Sussexes’ public projects appear to be under increased scrutiny, from financial challenges surrounding their charity to uncertainty over future media deals.
In that context, a memoir — particularly one offering a new perspective — would represent both a commercial opportunity and a renewed source of controversy.
Silence that speaks volumes
For now, Meghan has not announced any plans to write a book.
But her refusal to close the door has only intensified debate over whether another royal tell-all is already being considered — or quietly drafted.
In royal history, silence often signals restraint.
In this case, many observers believe it signals something else entirely:
that the story, in Meghan’s view, is not yet finished.
