In a press release obtained by Fox News, it was stated that Harry would donate the proceeds to charity, though what charity was not immediately clear. As unknown is whether the royal will keep his advance or donate it as well.

"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," Harry said in the release. "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."

The memoir will cover the British royal family member's life in the public eye beginning from his childhood to the present day.
