Sinopsis
In August of 1992, British newspapers published photos that shook the very foundation of the monarchy. The pictures revealed the Duchess of York enjoying a clandestine affair in St. Tropez with American Johnny Bryan-and the public who had been surprised by Sarah's groundbreaking separation was now stunned by the shocking new evidence of her dissatisfaction with her life as a royal. What behind-the-scenes events could possibly have driver the Duchess to rebel as drastically as she did?
Chris Hutchin's and Peter Thompson's years of royal watching--with special attention to the Duchess--have culminated in this explosive account of the events preceding and during Sarah's fall from royal favor. Exposed at last:
- The intimate details of the flowering of her relationships with Johnny Bryan and Steve Wyatt;
- The secret liaisons in Texas, London, and the French Riviera;
- The trump card Fergie holds--why the palace can never take her children from her.
- Get the inside story on the champaign within the palace to destroy the image of the defiant Duchess--the ill-will on the art of:
- The palace staff -- famous for excluding anyone not of royal birth, they resented the Duchess's familiarity and common ways;
- Princess Diana--initially Fergie's champion, she soon hated sharing the spotlight with the Duchess's vibrant personality and outrageous behaviour. Diana regretted involding herself in some of the more ghastly exploits, particularly as her own marriage took a turn for the worse;
- Queen Elizabeth--Fergie's spending habits, reliance on pills, and friendships with political enemies threatened the image of the monarchy;
- Prince Andrew himself--his fun-loving bride wasn't exactly pining in his absence, and Koo Stark hadn't really left the picture.
Never before has the energetic, determined Duchess been revealed in such honest detail--from the plain, outdoorsy girl who liked to have a good time, to the bride who bested the odds to marry into a royal circle that promptly shut her out. This mesmerizing book offers not only the first candid view of Sarah herself, but also an astonishing book at what really goes on in the lives of today's young royals.
CHRIS HUTCHINS is the British newspaper columnist who revealed Sarah's friendship with Steve Wyatt in 1990; he has chronicled her headline-making activities since her arrival on the royal scene in 1985.
PETER THOMPSON is the former editor of the Sunday Mirror and the co-author of Maxwell; A Portrait of Power.
