Some copies of the book are already on sale.

The pregnant mum-of-one was "inspired" to write the book after originally creating a poem for Harry's first Father's Day from their son.

And the 39-year-old has already revealed a sneak peek inside the book - showing her love for the two men in her life.

A sneak peek inside the book shows Harry and Archie appear to feature in a cute illustration.

The picture shows a ginger-haired dad with a beard walking hand-in-hand with a child around Archie's age.

And Meghan - who is currently pregnant with a baby girl - made sure to pay tribute to her son and husband with the latest tribute.

Meghan's touching dedication, reproduced from a hand-written note, reads: "For the man and the boy who make my heart go pump-pump."

BOOK WOES?

But the duchess' book is at risk of flopping after Waterstones pulled its publisher's books from displays in a row over supply.

Her publisher Penguin Random House is in a spat with Waterstones,  reported.

Penguin Random House has reportedly limited the credit they give to Waterstones - meaning the bookseller can only buy a certain amount from the publisher.

In response, Waterstones has yanked Penguin Random House books from its displays at 283 stores across the UK.

Waterstones bosses reportedly gave orders that only a small amount of Penguin Random House books should be visible to customers.

This could impact sales for upcoming titles like Meghan's book.

The mum-to-be's pen name is given as: "Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex".

She will also narrate an audiobook of the tale.

Meghan said: "The Bench started as a poem I wrote for my husband on Father's Day, the month after Archie was born. That poem became this story.

"Christian layered in beautiful and ethereal watercolour illustrations that capture the warmth, joy and comfort of the relationship between fathers and sons from all walks of life.

"This representation was particularly important to me and Christian and I worked closely to depict this special bond through an inclusive lens.

"My hope is that The Bench resonates with every family, no matter the make up, as much as it does with me."
