Meghan Markle may have taken a leaf out of Prince Harry’s bookliterally.The Duchess of Sussex is said to be preparing to release a book early this year. And reports claim 2026 is going to be a year of major moves for the royal.

Meghan Markle made waves last year.

The release of her Netflix show, With Love Meghan, and her luxury lifestyle brand, As Ever, saw the attention on the duchess skyrocket.

Meghan also attended a number of summits and charity galas as well as appearing on podcasts and even launching, then later retiring, her own podcast, Confessions Of a Female Founder.

Now, Meghan is said to be set for new heights. Her very own book!

Meghan Markle’s next project

The Duchess of Sussex is already known to have penned the foreword for Together: Our Community Cookbook, following the tragic Grenfell fire disaster in London in 2018.

Meghan has also written a children’s book, The Bench.

The royal reportedly has another literary feat in the works.

Meghan is said to be sticking with her preferred genre, lifestyle.

Meghan Markle set to pen new book

And given her Netflix success, where she shows viewers how to cook up thoughtful dishes and how to craft tokens for loved ones, it isn’t that much of a surprise.

“Meghan is looking at a cookbook for early 2026 and there will be more lifestyle products coming in the spring. 2026 is looking like another big year for her.

“There will be more wine and definitely more homeware too,” an insider claimed to MailOnline.”But she will ease off selling her biscuit and crepe kits.”

Former royal butler Grant Harrold has also chimed in on Meghan’s alleged plans to pen a new book.

The Duchess of Sussex leans into lifestyle prowess

Writing for AceOdds he said: “I believe Meghan will write a book in 2026, however I don’t think it will be the memoir many of her fans are hoping for. While she’s led a really interesting life and has many stories to tell, I don’t think she will want to share them at this point. She’s shared her stories and experience in interviews, however I’m not sure we’ll see a longer, tell-all book.

“However I think we’ll likely see something that fits with her new lifestyle branding, maybe a cookbook or a written version of her Netflix show sharing tips and tricks. I think the Royal Family hope she continues her work in the lifestyle sphere. It’s what she’s passionate about and she’s made a real mark. Plus, it can’t really do much harm – and especially nothing like Harry did with his memoir.”

We’ll be be waiting patiently to see what Meghan Markle launches next!
