Prior to the public release of Prince Harry's upcoming memoir, numerous shocking revelations that are set to rock the British monarchy have surfaced.

As well as alleging that he was physically attacked by older brother Prince William, another shocking confession is that the 38-year-old prince has commented on looking up Meghan Markle's TV sex scenes.

After excerpts of the book were obtained by various news outlets, including the Daily Mail, excerpts reveal that Prince Harry made the "mistake" of looking at some of Markle's acting work when they first started dating.

The couple first entered into their back in 2016, after the pair were introduced by a mutual friend. At the time, Markle was still acting in the legal TV drama Suits.

The series ran for nine seasons, before airing for the last time in 2019.

The show followed the story of a college dropout Mike Ross, who slowly works his way up the ranks in a New York City law firm, handling legal cases while trying to keep his lack of qualifications secret. Meghan, now 41, played Rachel Zane, Mike's love interest in the series.

In Harry's memoir, he described feeling uncomfortable after googling Meghan's love scenes when they first became romantically involved, joking that he needed "electric shock therapy" to wipe the footage from his brain.

"I'd witnessed her and a castmate mauling each other in some sort of office or conference room. I didn't need to see such things live," he wrote, via The Daily Mail.

The scene in question could be the show's season two finale, in which Meghan's character Rachel reveals she has feelings for Mike. The pair then get intimate in an office file room.

While the images appeared to have been seared into Harry's brain, that also didn't stop the prince from also sharing an in-depth description of how he lost his virginity at the age of 17.

Writing in his upcoming memoir, Prince Harry says that the act occurred in a field behind a bustling pub back in 2001. He added that his bodyguard had then visited him at Eton College, where he was still a student.

"I suspected he was referring to my recent loss of virginity, a humiliating episode with an older woman who liked macho horses and who treated me like a young stallion. I mounted her quickly, after which she spanked my ass and sent me away. One of my many mistakes was letting it happen in a field, just behind a very busy pub. No doubt someone had seen us," the father-of-two explained.

Also in his memoir, Harry details that he thought Queen Consort Camilla could be a "wicked stepmother," writing that: "I remember wondering... if she would be cruel to me; if she would be like all the wicked stepmothers in the stories.

"Willy had been suspicious of the Other Woman for a long time, which confused and tormented him; When those suspicions were confirmed, he felt agonizing remorse for not having done or said anything before."

The official release date for Harry's explosive memoir, Spare, is on January 10.
