The book was originally published in 1990, but it was re-released in 2017 (just around the time that The Crown became a hit, conveniently!) with a new foreword by the author.

For those who love the Queen, the Princess, or The Crown, Edwards’s book is a fascinating read. We’ll be discussing the book right after my wedding in July (!), so you’ve got plenty of time to get reading while I finish up wedding planning! Grab a copy from Amazon (or your retailer of choice) and enjoy!
