Mr. Christopher Andersen – Author – Royal Family Expert

bacon-bits

Christopher Andersen's bestselling book, Diana's Boys, revealed the powerful bond between the teenaged princes, and how it strengthened in the wake of their mother's tragic death. Now, twenty years later, Queen Elizabeth II is in her mid-nineties, Prince Charles is in his seventies, and all eyes are turned increasingly toward William and Harry.

In BROTHERS AND WIVES: Inside the Private Lives of William, Kate, Harry, and Meghan (Gallery Books; Hardcover; on-sale November 30), Andersen picks up where he left off, covering everything that has happened to the brothers as they have grown up, gotten married and had children-all while facing continual waves of controversy and questions about the ways their relationship has shifted.

BROTHERS AND WIVES unveils brand new information about the inner workings of the Royal Family, including: . Stunning new details about the aftermath of Diana's fatal car crash--a crash she repeatedly predicted would happen in letters to her lawyer and others.

. How William and Harry were forced to walk behind their mother's casket, and how the brothers struggled for decades with symptoms of undiagnosed PTSD.

. The identity of the royal family member whose curiosity ultimately led to charges of racism.

. Insights into the true impact of Megxit--and news that Meghan was not the only royal pushed toward self destruction.

. "Who the hell do you think you are?" What Harry said to William when his older brother urged him not to be too hasty about marrying Meghan

. The surprising truth about how far the rift between William and Harry really dates back--how the seeds of Harry's self-doubt and resentment were planted in early childhood, and the 20-year-old scandal that was Harry's first wake up call to where he stood in the royal pecking order

. Behind-the-scenes details about Kate and Meghan's hot- and cold-running sister-in-law dynamic, including what really happened the day the princesses made each other cry.

. How the Queen was shocked and wounded by Megxit, and how a furious Charles may take his revenge once he becomes King.

Andersen examines how the Queen's behind-the-scenes maneuvering to mold her grandsons in the Windsor image after Diana's death, and her expectations of William as the future king, played out. He questions whether the brothers' famously close relationship can survive Harry's departure from the Royal Family-the first time this has happened since their great-great-uncle King Edward abdicated the throne to marry a divorcée. Andersen also looks with an honest eye at how the princes and their wives have been continuously buffeted by scandal-including headline-making allegations of bullying, racism, betrayal, and emotional abuse that has pushed more than one royal to the brink of self-destruction.

Based on in-depth research and with his "fascinating and insightful" (The Christian Science Monitor) writing, Andersen leaves no stone unturned in this intimate and riveting look into the private lives of the world's most famous princes.
