vii, [3], 354, [4] pages. Illustrations (most in color). Authors' Note. Omid William Scobie (born July 1981) is a British journalist and writer best known for co-authoring the book Finding Freedom. Scobie's work focuses on the British royal family. He studied journalism at the London College of Communication. Scobie became the European bureau chief on the American celebrity and entertainment magazine Us Weekly, where he stayed for a decade. Part of his role was reporting on royals. He became royal editor-at-large at Harper's Bazaar and the royal contributor at ABC News, appearing regularly on Good Morning America and hosting the network's royal podcast, the HeirPod. In 2020, Scobie co-authored a book about Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, with American journalist Carolyn Durand. Finding Freedom: Harry and Meghan and the Making of A Modern Royal Family was published in August 2020. Within five days it had secured the number one spot for hardback non-fiction on The Sunday Times bestseller list. In August 2021 a paperback edition of the book was released with a new epilogue covering events of the previous year, including Meghan and Harry's TV interview with Oprah Winfrey. Carolyn Durand is a producer and writer who has spent nearly two decades working in London covering Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace, Clarence House and major international events. She produced multiple interviews with members of the Royal Family including Prince Harry. She contributes to O, The Oprah Magazine, Elle Magazine and other American and British news outlets. The biography describes the lives of Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex over the course of their courtship, marriage, and eventual departure from the British royal family. The book goes into detail about their relationship, royal household, and personal lives. In May 2020, two months after Megxit, HarperCollins announced the forthcoming publication of Finding Freedom, a biography of the Duke and Duchess authored by royal reporters Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand. Durand is a producer and writer with two decades of experience with the Royal Rota. She has previously interviewed multiple members of the royal family and contributes regularly to print outlets. Scobie is the royal editor for Harper's Bazaar, and regularly contributes to Good Morning America and ABC News. He reportedly "maintains strong access to the Sussexes' working world." The book was reported to detail the events leading up to Megxit and reveal "unknown details about the couple's life together" with "participation of those closest to the couple". The information in the book was stated to have been drawn from "more than one hundred sources". Media outlets reported that the Sussexes had contributed to Finding Freedom, which representatives for the couple initially denied. In November 2020, Meghan's legal team admitted that she had permitted a close friend to communicate with Scobie and Durand, "so the true position. could be communicated to the authors to prevent any further misrepresentation", confirming the Duchess's participation in the book. Extracts of the book were serialized in The Times and The Sunday Times in the weeks prior to its release. Finding Freedom was released on 11 August 2020. The book subsequently topped bestseller lists in the United Kingdom and the United States. The book was noted for specifying intimate details such as "the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's text messages", a description of the Queen's private sitting room at Buckingham Palace, and providing conflicting details of the private relationship between the couple and Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

INSTANT INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
The first, epic and true story of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s life together, finally revealing why they chose to pursue a more independent path, despite Harry’s deep devotion to his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, and the reasons behind their unprecedented decision to step away from their royal lives, from two top royal reporters who have been behind the scenes since the couple first met. Finding Freedom is complete with full color photographs from Harry and Meghan’s courtship, wedding, Archie’s milestones, every unforgettable moment.
When news of the budding romance between a beloved English prince and an American actress broke, it captured the world’s attention and sparked an international media frenzy. But while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have continued to make headlines—from their engagement, wedding, and birth of their son Archie to their unprecedented decision to step back from their royal lives—few know the true story of Harry and Meghan.
For the very first time, Finding Freedom goes beyond the headlines to reveal unknown details of Harry and Meghan’s life together, dispelling the many rumors and misconceptions that plague the couple on both sides of the pond. As members of the select group of reporters that cover the British Royal Family and their engagements, Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand have witnessed the young couple’s lives as few outsiders can.
With unique access and written with the participation of those closest to the couple, Finding Freedom is an honest, up-close, and disarming portrait of a confident, influential, and forward-thinking couple who are unafraid to break with tradition, determined to create a new path away from the spotlight, and dedicated to building a humanitarian legacy that will make a profound difference in the world.
