THE SUNDAY TIMES #1 BESTSELLER A Book of the Year for The Times, Financial Times and Waterstones 'This isn't a book; it's a case for revolution' CAMILLA LONG, SUNDAY TIMES 'A damning cannonball of truth through the York ramparts' MAIL ON SUNDAY 'Surely has a claim to the title of book of the year, for its seismic impact' JANINE GIBSON, FINANCIAL TIMES The first joint biography of the Duke and Duchess of York and the first full biography of either of them, by renowned royal biographer and literary agent, Andrew Lownie. Drawing on four years of research, numerous FOI requests and interviews with over a hundred people who have never spoken before, the book traces the lives of the late Queen's second son and his ex-wife through their childhoods, courtship, marriage, divorce, careers, and royal and charitable activities. Still living in the same house, they claim to be "the happiest divorced couple in the world". The book investigates the reality of their relationship and their love lives. It charts Andrew's record in the Falklands, his business activities and reveals details of how the couple have been able financially to sustain their extravagant lifestyles. It also recounts the full story of the Yorks' links with Jeffrey Epstein. Chronicling their lives in parallel, the picture that emerges is of a spoilt prince unable to connect and a duchess pushed by her insecurities into a desperate need to maintain the attention her 'royal' status brought. Rigorously researched and packed full of revelations, this is eye-watering biography at its best. 'This isn't just a royal biography. It's a study in reputational collapse and the danger of unchecked power inside Britain's most protected institution' THE STANDARD 'A catalyst for Andrew's de-princing' THE TIMES
