"Ghostwriters are professional writers who author books on behalf of a celebrity. The celebrity's name will appear as the author despite the majority, if not all, of the writing being done by the ghostwriter - whose name will occasionally also feature on the front cover. The job of the ghostwriter is to create the book in a tone that is fitting of the celebrity, using details about their life that they have discussed together."
"There has been controversy following the publication of Mary Earps' memoir - written with the help of a ghostwriter. The former England and Paris St-Germain goalkeeper faced backlash after she made comments about former team-mate Hannah Hampton and manager Sarina Wiegman. Earps told BBC Sport that she has not written her book to "tear anyone down" and feels that reaction to her words has been "distorted"."
