On the shelf? Just pop in.
From the heartbreak of Diana to the quiet strength of Camilla, from Meghan's rebellion to Catherine's composure, this book brings together the four women who have changed the British monarchy forever. Drawing on decades of reporting as one of British television's most trusted royal correspondents and a long-standing member of the royal rota, Simon Vigar offers an insider's portrait of the lives behind the palace gates. Through vivid storytelling and revealing new insights, Vigar explores how these four outsiders who married into 'the Firm' navigated love, duty, and an unforgiving public spotlight.
