You've been offered 1 million to write your biography but to get the money you have to reveal certain facts that would prove embarrassing to you and may cause irreparable damage to a relationship with another family member. Would you do it?

If I were to write my bio, it would cause me no embarrassment, however, there would defo be a family rift, well actually, it would just widen the rift that is already there. Yes, I'd do it!

I think I'd go the person in question and tell them what I intend to do and offer them a portion of the earnings.

I wouldn't give my member in question the time of day let alone a portion of the earnings. I'd give it away to charity first!

1 million isn't nearly enough to justify causing embarrassment to a family member and irreparable damage to a relationship.  No, I wouldn't do it.
