Your support makes all the difference.A new biography delving into the life of Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, has been released today. Billed as “revelatory”, the new book details how she met and fell in love with Prince William, and contains snippets of her life within the royal family.
Titled Catherine, the Princess of Wales: The Biography, the book aims to shed new light on the story of Kate’s journey to becoming Queen in waiting and the events that have shaped her, including her recent cancer diagnosis.
Ahead of its release, excerpts from the book have been shared with many revelations coming to light, from the circumstances behind the royal couple’s brief break up in 2007 to the news that Prince William clashed with King Charles over his decision to fly in a helicopter with his family.
Written by New York Times best-selling author and veteran Royal correspondent Robert Jobson, the biography draws on Jobson’s connections within the royal household and conversations with sources, which have taken place both on and off the record.
