About ENTITLED

The House of York has seen its fair share of scandal. Still living in the same house, Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson claim to be “the happiest divorced couple in the world”. But what don’t we know?

Packed full of extraordinary revelations, Entitled is the first joint biography of the Duke and Duchess of York, revealing how their lives are still deeply entwined. Drawing on four years of research, numerous FOI requests and interviews with over a hundred people who have never spoken before, biographer Andrew Lownie traces the lives of the late Queen’s second son and his ex-wife through their childhoods, courtship, marriage, divorce, careers and royal and charitable activities.

Investigating the reality of their relationship it also assesses Andrew’s Falklands record, his business dealings and reveals new details of how the couple have been able to financially sustain their extravagant lifestyles. It also delves deeper into links with Jeffrey Epstein [pictured above with Andrew], which began earlier, continued longer and were much more frequent than reported.

Chronicling their lives in parallel, the picture that emerges is of a spoilt prince unable to connect and a duchess pushed by her insecurities into a desperate need to maintain the attention her ‘royal’ status brought.

BEYOND THE ROYAL HEADLINES is a monthly zoom event that delves into the detail and discusses the issues the royals would rather were forgotten.
