This book presents the other side of royal protocol and perhaps gives a glimpse of the real lives of this much-loved clan. We were all smitten with The Cruel Prince, so the challenge was coming up with a cover that looked like part of the series, but could also stand out on it.

But, somehow, they still manage to maintain a sense of humour - and it's those flashes of fun and brilliance that this book celebrates.įrom Prince Philip's gaffe-prone remarks (most of which appear ON camera rather than off) to the 'in' jokes shared by the knowing smiles of the younger royals and the Queen's wickedly dry and often bitingly funny remarks from Prince Charles's asides to the Duchess of Cornwall to the self-deprecating smile of the Duchess of Cambridge and the belly laughs that appeal to Prince Harry. I am so thrilled with all the buzz around the cover for The Wicked King Especially since the second book in a series can be more challenging than the firstand this one was no exception. Watched and picked over in the media for everything from fashion choices to baby bumps, sporting achievements to nightclub preferences, there doesn't seem to be a moment when they can escape public scrutiny. There is no doubt that the British royal family is THE most famous family in the world.
