It’s unclear if the couple will be adapting the novel as a movie or series. However, Penguin Random House did confirm to Forbes that their production company Archewell Products had secured the rights. Other outlets reported estimates that the deal cost as much as $3.8 million, though no one confirmed or denied that number to Forbes.
Interestingly, while the novel is fictionalized, it does draw parallels to Meghan and Prince Harry‘s life and relationship. For instance, a character loses a parent to a car accident just like Prince Harry lost Princess Diana.
