Finding Freedom

Harry and Meghan and the Making of a Modern Royal Family

De: Carolyn Durand, Omid Scobie

Narrado por: Omid Scobie

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 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.

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.

A wonderful read

Best I’ve heard yet— well done and balanced. Great job on the part of the authors—a wonderfully read book!

Thought it would be much juicer...

This book was a bit of a yawn, I’m sorry to say. I was looking forward to a not so biased account . I truly have much respect for them both buy would have liked more interesting facts not already known. Everything that was discussed is info I already know or have read. Nothing new here.

So Proud!

This was so enlightening and made me feel so proud of these beautiful people take charge of their lives and live it the way they want to. So happy to see change where needed!.

Sincere ~ not tabloid gossip

I really enjoyed this book. It felt very sincere and accurate. . Not gossip

Delightfully Enlightening!

As a avid consumer of history and a change management advisor, my interest in reading this book was to gain insight into how this very modern couple would bend the arch of change within the Royal family and impacts not only to the “Firm” and British institution, the British people and to the wider global community. The authors have accomplished their goals and more. I love Harry and Meghan’s strength and conviction and know that time and space will allow them, their families and the people around them to call the world their home. The ties that binds Harry in particular will be as forceful and loud as a crashing wave to bring him home eventually. Win-win with love and duty! There is no place like home even when abroad!

Finding your voice

H &M
I am so glad you were allowed to share your side of the story through this book finding freedom. I am sure it was liberating and helped you heal from your difficult circumstances. Everyone in this life should take the opportunity to stand up for what is right. There are consequences but sometimes it is necessary for our mental health to be heard.
I hope you can go back to be working royals because together you are both a power house of change. You are driven to make a difference and I hope the king will appreciate and know how much you can do for the world. I hope your skills can be channeled in a positive way within the structure of the royal family. It would amazing to see what you both could do if you get re-instated.
They did the PR for Camilla and they can do it for you both as well. Your children need to receive their titles as this will be the olive leaf for healing.
Go back to your jobs as working Royal but with a vision, new wisdom and fresh eyes. The world will love you for it!

Wonderful concise and well written book.

Dog Days Are Over

I am very pleased they got out of the UK and to the US when they did. Now they can live a life of their choosing.

Finding Truth

It was good to finally hear the truth about H&M. This book was fair and balanced, without name calling or being disrespectful to anyone. Family dynamics is can be difficult, but I’m sure all will be well in the end.

Meghan is finally vindicated!

I have been following the story of these two for a few years and the media really did tear Meghan apart for no real reason other than the fact that she was half black, divorced and an actress. The articles written about her were sensational tabloid junk. I really enjoyed this book. It was clear and very objective.

Propaganda pure and simple

This book told from the view of the Suxxes is so one-sided as to be laughable. According to the author, Megan Markle is nothing less than Mother Teresa and Prince Harry only second to the Pope himself. A more balanced view would have been appreciated.
