In The Diana Chronicles, you will meet a formidable female cast and understand as never before the society that shaped them: among them, Diana's sexually charged mother, her bad-girl sister-in-law, Fergie, and, most formidable of them all, her mother-in-law, the Queen. Add Camilla Parker-Bowles, the ultimate "other woman" into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana broke out of her royal cage into celebrity culture, where she found her own power and used it to devastating effect.

After a childhood spent on Hollywood film sets, Meghan Markle fought hard for stardom. But even when she landed her breakthrough role on Suits, her dream of worldwide celebrity remained elusive until she met the man who would change her life—Prince Harry. Their whirlwind romance culminated with Meghan’s ultimate fairy tale ending: their 2018 wedding at Windsor Castle. Finally, the world was her stage. It seemed that the dizzying success of the wedding between the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex marked the beginning of a fresh era for the British Royal Family.

For seventy years, Queen Elizabeth ruled over an institution and a family. She was constant in her desire to provide a steady presence and to be a trustworthy steward of the British people and the Commonwealth. In the face of her uncle’s abdication, in the uncertainty of the Blitz, and in the tentative exposure of her family and private life to the public via the press, Elizabeth became synonymous with the crown. In The New Royals, journalist Katie Nicholl provides a nuanced look at Elizabeth’s remarkable and unrivalled reign.

Diana’s Boys revealed the powerful bond between the teenaged princes and how it strengthened even more in the wake of their mother’s tragic death. Now, 20 years later, Queen Elizabeth II is in her mid-90s, Prince Charles is in his 70s, and all eyes are turned increasingly toward William and Harry again. Andersen picks up where he left off, covering everything that has happened to the brothers as they have grown up, gotten married to two remarkable women, and had children.

Many questions are explored in this authoritative book, written by two people closely associated with Diana: Inspector Ken Wharfe was the Princess's police protection officer for six years during the most turbulent period of her marriage to Prince Charles, and Ros Coward was chosen as author of the official book by the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Trust. This book is both an examination of the people and events of the time and an elegiac tribute to one of the most iconic figures of the late twentieth century.

Queen Elizabeth II’s death ruptured the already-fractured foundations of the House of Windsor—and dismantled the protective shield around it. With an institution long plagued by antiquated ideas around race, class and money, the monarchy and those who prop it up are now exposed and at odds with a rapidly modernizing world.

This is the story of how King Charles was shaped and moulded by his heritage. His mother was the woman he always loved but could never be close to. As Queen she held the Pandora’s box of the crown and all he could do was wait and learn. In his mother’s old age, he finally received the affection and respect from her he had craved for so long. This book documents his life through many personal anecdotes from his family and his friends from the moment the guns saluted his birth until St. Edwards Crown was placed on his head and he was officially declared as the King at his Coronation.

In The Real Diana, she reveals that the reason she knew so much about what went on behind the palace gates was because Diana herself was the source. Drawing upon these confidences - as well as on conversations with countless people who knew Diana and with Diana herself in the final years of her life - Lady Colin Campbell combines true insight with true compassion to bring us the most intimate and revealing portrait of the Princess of Wales.

In A Royal Duty, Paul Burrell reveals the truth about Princess Diana, as well as a faithful account of her thoughts. He was the favourite footman who formed a unique relationship with the Queen. He was the butler who the Princess of Wales called "my rock" and "the only man I can trust". He was accused of theft, then acquitted following the historic intervention of the monarch. He was the Princess' most intimate confidant.

Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The “addictively readable” (The Washington Post) inside story of the British royal family’s battle to overcome the dramas of the Diana years—only to confront new, twenty-first-century crises
“Frothy and forthright, a kind of Keeping Up with the Windsors with sprinkles of Keats.”—The New York Times (Notable Book of the Year)
ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The Washington Post, Elle, Town & Country
“Never again” became Queen Elizabeth II’s mantra shortly after Princess Diana’s tragic death. More specifically, there could never be “another Diana”—a member of the family whose global popularity upstaged, outshone, and posed an existential threat to the British monarchy.
Picking up where Tina Brown’s masterful The Diana Chronicles left off, The Palace Papers reveals how the royal family reinvented itself after the traumatic years when Diana’s blazing celebrity ripped through the House of Windsor like a comet.
Brown takes listeners on a tour de force journey through the scandals, love affairs, power plays, and betrayals that have buffeted the monarchy over the last twenty-five years. We see the Queen’s stoic resolve after the passing of Princess Margaret, the Queen Mother, and Prince Philip, her partner for seven decades, and how she triumphs in her Jubilee years even as family troubles rage around her. Brown explores Prince Charles’s determination to make Camilla Parker Bowles his wife, the tension between William and Harry on “different paths,” the ascendance of Kate Middleton, the downfall of Prince Andrew, and Harry and Meghan’s stunning decision to step back as senior royals. Despite the fragile monarchy’s best efforts, “never again” seems fast approaching.
Tina Brown has been observing and chronicling the British monarchy for three decades, and her sweeping account is full of powerful revelations, newly reported details, and searing insight gleaned from remarkable access to royal insiders. Stylish, witty, and erudite, The Palace Papers will irrevocably change how the world perceives and understands the royal family.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Zingers crisscross these pages like tracer fire. . . . [Tina Brown] becomes the ideal tour guide: witty, opinionated and adept at moving us smoothly from bedchamber to belowstairs while offering side trips to the cesspits of the tabloid press, the striving world of second-tier celebrities and the threadbare lodgings of palace supernumeraries.”—The Wall Street Journal
“[Tina Brown] deploys her sterling contacts and deeply embedded sources, her familiarity with British royal history and her personal encounters with royals, palace courtiers, politicians and journalists to serve up a luscious feast of . . . well, yes, gossip. But what elegant gossip, dressed up in Brown’s stylish sentences and erudite insights.”—USA Today
“Gripping . . . [The] real power of this book is the cumulative picture it builds of lives as they have to be lived by the rules and customs of the Windsor palaces.”—The Daily Beast

Well Balanced (mostly) and Insightful
Overall a very respectable and deeply researched account of the players who make up the Windsor Royal family.
Ms Brown provides a mostly balanced profile of the actions and behaviours of the members of the firm, while offering her sharp witticisms and suggesting conclusions one can infer from them. If she observes hypocrisy, she’ll point it out. If there’s irony, even better. Still, if there’s pathos, she’ll leave some room for that.
She draws some pretty hilarious extended metaphors when she wants to point out a particularly scathing set of circumstances to characterize the Royal she’s unfolding. (My favourite being the cake metaphor attributed to Meghan and her offers of celebrity appearances… yes, please!).
Notwithstanding, there’s a tone, at moments, of elitism, that could also be interpreted as an assessment of who preserves the traditions of the monarchy best. For example, in speaking of Harry’s love interest one prior to Meghan, Brown’s criteria for why she would have made a perfect Harry-match is all about lineage, alliance and acquiescence. In a similar vein, she hasn’t a bad word for Kate / Catherine nor the Queen. To Brown, both upheld their duties impeccably.
Nevertheless, she leaves room for the desire for reform, as the reader learns, in the epilogue, of Charles’ aspirations to open his home to the public to honour his mother’s legacy.
As many readers will do, I cheered at the outcome for Andrew (no Prince title warranted here) and loved how the truth was scathing in itself.
She neither condemns nor supports Harry and Meghan’s actions, yet draws attention to motivation and psychology to explain behaviour. As such, for the most part, she asks the reader to draw their own conclusions and make their own value judgements.
While I may have been led somewhat by the astute persuasive skills of the author, I did just that.

More than I expected
As a British born and raised woman, I have only experienced our Queen for most of my life. Now after more than 50 years in Canada, I have watched the machinations of royal court from afar. There is no-one to compare to HM the Queen in the world or in history. I am nervous regarding Charles/Camilla for all her loyalty and steadfastness to the crown. I struggle with forgiving and her role in undermining young Diana’s marriage and confidence. I realize Charles will be King, I am sure he will be a good caretaker, but get anxious because he has not honoured his first wife appropriately and wishes to make sweeping changes - some of which may be necessary but may also be Ill-advised in these turbulent times. However, it does give William & Katherine a chance to raise their beautiful family before the world welcomes them. I really enjoyed this book and learned a lot of things I had not been aware of over the years. Thank you Tina Brown

Tina Brown, renowned as a trusted provider of the facts - be they blooming or dark - delivers an honest education on the subject of the House of Windsor with its current players. "Bouquets" for the positive and good, "Beefs" for the destructive and unacceptable. highly readable!

Excellent
I believe this was a factual and fair presentation of the Monarchy and issues surrounding its members and Harry and Meghan in particular.

Splendid!! Absolutely loved it!
I've been fascinated by the Royals since my first magazine glimpse of Diana when she first burst upon the world as a girl (of my age), Have followed the press drama for all those years and, of late, read many books (by many authors) so much of this book was not "new news" but, uniquely, it was fairly presented without a story-altering bias. Tina Brown's, The Palace Papers, was so well researched and read. As a Canadian, you just know she knows Brits, Americans, and the Royals inside and out along with the history, human folly, and culture clash that comes with those identities. Her sense of humour is woven throughout, her voice oh so wise, and her research impeccable. The epilogue swept me away... and will bring me back to her books in the future.
