EXTRACTS from an explosive new biography have threatened to further cut Prince Harry and wife Meghan adrift from the Royal Family.

The book, Finding Freedom, currently being serialised before its release on August 11, reveals intimate details of secrecy, snobbery and controversy within Britain’s most famous family.

During a brief courtship it is claimed Harry used a mysterious Instagram alias, @SpikeyMau5, to communicate with his American lover.

Early dates included a private plane to Botswana where they stayed at a £1,500 per night luxury resort.

The serialisation also suggests the couple exchanged the words “I love you” within three months of dating but the honeymoon was short-lived.

Prince Charles had just 20 minutes to digest his son’s fledgling relationship, before they announced the news globally.

It is claimed Clarence House was “crushed” at the timing of the revelation, taking the spotlight away from Charles and Camilla’s diplomatic tour of the Gulf.

According to the book, which reads favourably for the Sussexes, Prince Harry labelled his brother a “snob” for William’s perceived attitude towards Meghan.

The siblings “hardly spoke” during a fractious period that also included one senior royal referring to Meghan as “Harry’s showgirl”.

In return, a friend of the Sussexes labelled senior royals as “the vipers”.

A further extract reads: “As Meghan tearfully told a friend in March: ‘I gave up my entire life for this family. I was willing to do whatever it takes. But here we are. It’s very sad,”.

Harry and Meghan both deny any direct involvement in the book, written by journalists Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand.

However, they have not sought to block its release or deny any of the damaging claims which paint other members of the Royal Family poorly.

The Duchess of Sussex, has spent a total of six hours in the county.

During a whistle-stop tour in October 2018, the pair visited Chichester, Brighton and Peacehaven.

The couple, now based in Los Angeles, are currently in the process of a lawsuit after a photographer used a drone to gain footage of their young son, Archie.
