Prince Charles
Edward VII waited for over 59 years to accede to the throne. Prince Charles passed that milestone as far back as 2011. Although he still waits to accede to the throne, his role within the royal family has grown as his mother's has receded with age. But it has been a long journey. Few heirs will have fallen and risen in the eyes of the public as much as our current Prince of Wales. This book charts his life. From his early days brought up by nannies - one extremely tough, the other loving and kind.
His close relationship with this grandmother, through university, the military and his many attempts to find a love to rival the one he could not pursue. His marriage made in heaven, which would so soon descend to hell. But also, the good times; his sons, his growing closeness to his parents, his ultimate marriage to the woman he loved for so much of his life. This is Prince Charles' story - the man who would be king.
Camilla Parker Bowles
Her Royal Highness The Princess Charles, Princess of Wales and Countess of Chester, Duchess of Cornwall, Duchess of Rothesay, Countess of Carrick, Baroness of Renfrew, Lady of the Isles, Princess of Scotland. Quite a mouthful for a girl who used to enjoy a smoke on the roof of her school in London. Camilla Parker Bowles has led a full life. It takes a lot to turn from being the cause of public ire to a very well-loved royal in less than a generation, but that is something that she has, remarkably, achieved.
Both she and Princes Charles might have been delivered by the same doctor, but their bond grew even tighter as they got older. In this biography we will examine the evidence as to whether it was Camilla who was behind the break up the 'fairy tale marriage' of Charles and Diana Spencer. We will see whether the criticism she received was justified, or whether it was unfair vitriol from an uninformed public, harnessed by a prejudiced and headline grabbing media.
