Captain Sir Tom Moore's daughter has admitted in an interview with TalkTV to keeping £800,000 from the three books he wrote, despite saying the money would go to the Captain Tom Moore Charity.
Hannah Ingram-Moore told TalkTV that her father, Sir Captain Tom, wanted the family to keep the profits from the books in the separate firm named Club Nook Ltd.
Last night, The Sun published extracts of the family's interview with Piers Morgan.
Hannah Ingram-Moore reportedly told Piers Morgan: "These were father's books, and it was honestly such a joy for him to write them, but they were his books. He had an agent and they worked on that deal, and his wishes were that that money would sit in Club Nook, and in the end . . . "
Morgan interjects with: "For you to keep?"
She replies: "Yes... specifically."
The Captain Tom Foundation was set up in honour of Captain Sir Tom Moore, a 100-year-old war veteran who managed to raise £39m for NHS Charities Together by walking 100 laps of his garden during the coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
In the prologue of one of Captain Tom's books, it reads "Astonishingly at my age, with the offer to write this memoir I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name."
The family also spoke to TalkTV of their "regret" over the spa complex built at their £1.2m home in Marston Moretaine, near Milton Keynes.
