From The NY Times bestselling writer of America?s Queen?the definitive biography of Diana, Princess of Wales
Diana, Princess of Wales, is nothing less than an icon, remembered in death as vividly as she appeared in life. Yet throughout her brief life, Diana was plagued by rumor, innuendo, and scandal. With exclusive access to those closest to Diana, Sarah Bradford now casts aside the gossip and lies and takes us to the very heart of the royal family to split up the myth from the reality of the Diana years.
Diana follows the old-fashioned courtship that saw her captivate the Prince of Wales; the transformation associated with an unworldly teenager into an emotionally demanding, but adoring, wife and mother; the damage caused by the ever-present specter of Camilla Parker Bowles; and the eventual collapse of any doomed marriage once hailed as the best fairy tale. Bradford examines Diana?s lovers and her relationships with her staff, friends, and family, as well as her children, husband, and the royal family. She also charts Diana?s profound commitment to her charities and her rare connection to and empathy with those she met; the battle to find an identity after the separation from Charles; and the final, complicated year as a single woman.
Using the authority missing from all previous accounts, as well as remarkable new sources and firsthand accounts, acclaimed royal biographer Sarah Bradford offers a complex and explosive study of 1 of the most popular figures of the twentieth century.
