Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 11
One was a married American socialite who embarked on a scandalous affair with the future king of England. Another was an aristocratic ingenue whose winsome charm captured the world’s imagination. And the third was a thirty-something actress whose outspokenness put her on a collision course with the British public. The marriages of Wallis Simpson, Diana Spencer, and Meghan Markle into the British royal family sparked a series of crises that at times seemed to threaten the future of the monarchy itself.

The Author doesn’t understand Royalty at all.
Revisado: 07-11-24
I’m American and I understand why the Royal Family/Monarchy has the rules it has. Meghan went into the Family, guns blazing planning to break protocol every time and not expect push back. I think the late Queen was very forgiving of Meghan until she stole $250,000 of jewelry. I wouldn’t put up with that either.
This Author needs to research her subjects more thoroughly and she can start with Tom Bower’s books. He has never been sued. His research of his subjects is impeccable.
Harry has always been protected and the Palace always used their PR machine to make him appear to be the happy go lucky Prince when he is a spoilt man child. Did the author know he beat up a woman during his service in the Army while she was “servicing” him?
Not happy with this book at all.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 192
When Ann Woodward shot her husband, banking heir Billy Woodward, in the middle of the night in 1955, her life changed forever. Though she claimed she thought he was a prowler, few believed the woman who had risen from charismatic showgirl to popular socialite. Everyone had something to say about the scorching scandal afflicting one of the most rich and famous families of New York City, but no one was more obsessed with the tale than Truman Capote.

Really enjoyed the way the reader used her voice to vary the characters. Very good. I always enjoy learning about people whose names I know, but don’t know their story. Now I do.

This was very interesting. A lot of facts I didn’t know. History is repeating itself with Markle and Harry. Let’s learn from history.
