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.

Their whirlwind romance culminated with Meghan’s ultimate fairy tale ending: their 2018 wedding at Windsor Castle. Finally, the world was her stage.

For many years, Camilla was portrayed in a poor light, blamed by the public for the break-up of the marriage between Prince Charles and Lady Diana. Initially, the Queen refused to see or speak to her, but, since the death of Prince Philip, the Duchess has become one of the Queen's closest companions. Her confidence in Camilla and the transformation she has seen in Prince Charles since their wedding resulted in her choosing the first day of her Platinum Jubilee year to tell the world that she wants Camilla to be Queen Consort not the demeaning Princess Consort suggested in 2005.

Meghan was 11 when she first advocated for women’s rights; a teenager when she worked in a soup kitchen feeding the homeless; a popular actress when she campaigned for clean water in Africa and passionately championed gender equality in a speech to a United Nations Women’s Conference. Even before she met Prince Harry, hers was an extraordinarily accomplished life. Meghan’s wedding to Harry was a joyful occasion, marking happiness at last for the Queen’s grandson who had captured our hearts 20 years earlier when he bravely walked behind his mother Diana’s coffin.

Publisher's Summary
The first, epic and true story of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s life together, finally revealing why they chose to pursue a more independent path and the reasons behind their unprecedented decision to step away from their royal lives, from two top royal reporters who have been behind the scenes since the couple first met.
When news of the budding romance between a beloved English prince and an American actress broke, it captured the world’s attention and sparked an international media frenzy. But while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have continued to make headlines—from their engagement, wedding, and birth of their son Archie to their unprecedented decision to step back from their royal lives—few know the true story of Harry and Meghan.
For the very first time, Finding Freedom goes beyond the headlines to reveal unknown details of Harry and Meghan’s life together, dispelling the many rumors and misconceptions that plague the couple on both sides of the pond. As members of the select group of reporters that cover the British Royal Family and their engagements, Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand have witnessed the young couple’s lives as few outsiders can.
With unique access and written with the participation of those closest to the couple, Finding Freedom is an honest, up-close, and disarming portrait of a confident, influential, and forward-thinking couple who are unafraid to break with tradition, determined to create a new path away from the spotlight, and dedicated to building a humanitarian legacy that will make a profound difference in the world.

Changed my perception of Meghan for the worst
I first want to say this book was easy to get through and the naration was good.
Prior to reading this book, I was very pro Meghan and Harry. However after reading this book, unfortunately it has changed my mind about Meghan for the worst. The book reads as if she was always this sweet and innocent do-gooder who never did a single bad thing in her life and all the drama surrounding her was in no way her fault. Basically she was a bystander and all these horrible things just happened around her while she was doing only noble things in life. She had no explanation why or how drama started because she did nothing wrong. It was always someone else's vendetta against her. Meghan is so perfect that everyone on the planet who met her was forever impressed and in awe. The book goes on and on about her virtues and how blameless she is.
Did you ever have that one teenage friend in highschool who acted like she was so "innocent" and didn't know why "drama always followed her" But in reality you knew that she was the instigator of all the drama but then she pretended like it was never her fault?
That is how this book made me feel about meghan. I do feel as though she had a part in writing this book becuase it is not very objective and it seemed to be the perspective of one person. She was the only person in the book who had zero flaws. Everyone else was low key shaded at some point (even Harry). Either Meghan played a strong role in this book or Omid is so obsessed with her that in his eyes she is perfect.
The other thing in this book that was quite nauseating was the constant name dropping. Endless name dropping that came across like the author (or meghan) was trying so hard to seem like Meghan was always part of the "cool kids".
If this book was meant to humanize Meghan, it did the opposite for me. It made me think that she is gravely lacking in self awareness and also values the vapid qualities of celebrity. I felt like the person described in the book did not showcase the life and values of a woman but rather described how an immature teenage girl desperately wants to portray herself - Perfect, popular.
Now I have my doubts about whether I actually want to continue to support meghan's charities and causes. It left me with a terrible impression of her.

Same old stuff
I found this book to be very boring. The whole thing was basically same news heard and read the news media for several years so there was no real revelation and I don’t get the finding freedom part I think they’re a very immature couple that just didn’t want to have to do boring tasks that the royal family sometimes has to do. I think Megan has stars in her eyes and Harry yes seems to follow along whatever she wants. So sad he had to give up the military stuff. I expected a lot more in this book but it really wasn’t worth my time

Worst one sided book ever
This book was so ridiculously one sided. It’s totally unbelievable. It’s like Harry and Megan wrote it themselves with no accountability for anything they may have done. I can’t even believe it was published. I had to skip parts because I could t even listen to the insanity of how great Megan is In every aspect of her life with not one fault, and I never even minded her, I am sure the Royal family is hard to be a part of. But come on!!!!! Horrible

Fair Story Telling
I wasn’t sure what to expect as I am one of the many who has been exposed to the many headlines in the news. I thought the authors did a great job presenting facts. It wasn’t all flattering to Meghan and Harry, but it did come across as authentic. As someone who is estranged with some of my own family, there were triggering moments. I definitely am glad I was not born into the monarchy; it seems clear that duty often comes before family, that strangers are in a position to orchestrate the direction of other people’s lives and that there are a lot of painful moments that become public when they should remain private. I with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex a wonderful new chapter in the fairy tale they are writing for themselves. It is inspiring the work they do to make the world a better place, even when not paid or pampered as official working royals. I would definitely recommend giving this book a listen as it opened my eyes to the ways of the media and the monarchy. Well done!

Don”t buy this book
While I hoped to learn how H&M we’re ‘Finding Freedom’ this book appears to be an ego filled, victim based narrative - provided by them - and is not an edifying or redemptive experience. Save your $ and read the news headlines instead.

This book was written by Meghan Markle. I could not believe the way she portrays herself in chapter one. She writes about her life as if she is a mixture of Mother Teressa, Joan of Arc, and Princess Diana. Absolutely self absorbed and a disgrace. Do not waste your time on this one. Poor Harry

Funding Freedom
The audible version I believe is the most entertaining version as Omid Scobie reads his book and he has a nice cadence in his voice. However the content of the book is fluff, adoring tome to saints Meghan and Harry. Really no new bits. Minutiae regarding what dinners they had, their luxe trips, their friendships and rolling out this relationship of Meghan and Harry.
But the characters are incredibly shallow.

An absolute page turner!
It’s disheartening to see comments about how this is a “poor me” type of book and perspective. What this book offers, in my opinion, is the unfortunate truth of what two people in love had to endure, while together and prior to that. Shaming them for “breaking tradition” or “modernizing the Royal family”. Does anyone know that when Princess Diana died in 1997, it was Charles who pushed for the Queen to make a public statement, with the intention of modernizing the traditions or rules set in place? Does anyone care to see how a human being, having their entire life planned out for them, could seriously affect their mental state? Or for any newcomer, with no intention to change or compromise the traditions set in place, could also be affected by being completely slandered solely due to her race and upbringing? If you don’t see any of that, then clearly your own views are skewed and not the other way around.
This book is eye-opening and unapologetic about the realities of being a royal and what comes with it. So, for that, I thank the authors for bringing to light just another example that, not only the United States, but the world has A LOT of work to do in terms of acceptance of others different from themselves.
My ONLY complaint was the misinformation being narrated by the author versus what was printed in the actual book. I.e. Diana died in 1997 versus him saying in 1996 and the boys’ nanny resigned in 1999 versus 1997.

Utter sickly sweet drivel
I don’t know why I finished this book. This book is 95 percent about Meghan as in “ Meghan is wonderful , Meghan is perfect , Meghan is compassionate , Meghan is this ,Meghan is that” . The other 5 percent is about either how in love Harry is or how enraged Harry is. They come off as a bunch of spoilt twits. What a waste of my time . Don’t bother. There isn’t anything in here that hasn’t been already in the press .

I enjoyed the matter of fact reporting of both sides of this story. The context and specific examples of certain events, it is clear that Harry & Meghan made the right choice in leaving "The Firm" as with every explanation on why they wouldn't support the couple it was obvious that they just didn't want to.
Could the transition could've been smoother? Probably but at the end of the day I see a couple that was left unprotected and a family that cares more about ranking then do about people, no wonder they call the British Royal Family , "The Firm".
My respects to Harry & Meghan, can't wait to see how they change the world

Wonderful Love Story
At the heart of this book is a beautiful love story. I now understand so much more about these two people and their love for each other.

Save Your Audible Credit, Money and Time.
Nothing new under the Sun here.
It’s basically Meghan Markle telling her friends, authors what to write.
Seriously nothing new that you haven’t heard about on T.V
I was so happy for Harry when he got married and happy for Meghan.
They disrespected not only his family, but as an American, I thought Meghan would be a stronger Woman.
Instead she is whiny and sue happy, power hungry.
Honestly didn’t want to believe any of the things I have heard negative about her.
I was hoping there would be something new in this book..there isn’t.
Save your money.
