Non-Fiction Biography
I put it to William, particularly, that if you find
someone you love in life, you must hang on to that love and
look after it. . . . You must protect it. —Diana,
Princess of Wales Theirs was destined from the start to
be one of the most celebrated unions of the twenty-first
century: he, the charismatic prince who would someday be
crowned king of England; she, the stunningly beautiful
commoner who won his heart. Prince William and Kate
Middleton defied all odds to forge a storybook romance amid
the scandals, power struggles, tragedies, and general
dysfunction that are the hallmarks of Britain’s Royal
Family. In the process, they became the most written about,
gossiped about, admired, and envied young couple of their
generation. Yet for most of their nearly decade-long
affair, William and Kate have remained famously quiet and
kept their royal relationship a tantalizing mystery. Now, as
their long-anticipated wedding finally approaches,
journalist and #1 New York Times bestselling author
Christopher Andersen reveals the intimate details of their
celebrated courtship and offers a mesmerizing glimpse of the
man and wife—and future king and queen—they will become:
· William’s lifelong role as confidant and adviser to
his fragile mother, and how it has shaped his relationship
with Kate · The lengths the couple went to to keep
their affair secret, from their first days together as
university students (when he cheered her on as she modeled
racy lingerie at a fashion show) · William’s romantic
conquests before—and during—his decade-long romance with
Kate · The person who was really behind their
headlinemaking breakup—and how Kate won back her prince
· The shocking sex-and-drugs scandals involving
Kate’s wild relatives, and how the would-be queen survived
them · The long-troubling influence of William’s
substance-abusing aristocrat friends and the depression Kate
rescued him from · Stunning new information on the
threats to both their lives, the nightmare scenario that
haunts William’s dreams to this day, and their narrow escape
from repeating Diana’s fate · Surprising details on
the Queen’s historic plans for William and Kate, which will
forever change the face of the monarchy For many,
William and Kate’s union represents an opportunity to
recapture the magic—the compelling and complicated legacy—of
his beloved mother Diana, Princess of Wales. Part glittering
fairy tale, part searing family drama, part political
potboiler, part heart-stopping cliff-hanger, theirs is,
above all else, an affair to remember.
