Summary
*THE SENSATIONAL NEW ROYAL BIOGRAPHY FROM THE NO.1 BESTSELLING INVESTIGATIVE BIOGRAPHER, TOM BOWER*

'Juicy... A Bower news bomb is always something of a publishing event' Tina Brown, Observer

'Explosive' - The Times

'A fascinating read' - Evening Standard

'Sensational... A brutal, forensic takedown of the House of Sussex at its most fragile moment yet' The Daily Beast, The Royalist Podcast with Tom Sykes

'The Royal Family's vulnerability was exposed... Treachery in the family was rarely rewarded - as Harry and Meghan realised. The Palace chose silence as its only option... Few could anticipate the endgame.'

The British Crown is in crisis, with constitutional threats at home and abroad. Since their infamous 'Megxit' split from the Royal Family, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have dominated global headlines. Ferociously controversial, not least for demanding privacy while seeking the spotlight, the Sussexes have remained a subject of gripping fascination for both supporters and cynics alike. Both camps are united on one platform: what is the endgame?

Fighting to preserve their royal titles and privileges, In their attempts to create a Sussex brand the couple have fuelled bitter hostility. Accusations of disloyalty have been trumped by recriminations about dishonesty. Amid High Court battles with the government and the media, and the infamous publication of Spare, the Sussexes have reeled after successive Netflix flops and their doomed collaboration with Spotify - only to be ridiculed for Meghan's self-invention as a domestic goddess.

At a landmark moment in royal history, the Sussexes' challenge to the British monarchy echoes worldwide. The fallout always threatens to be catastrophic. Just five years on from 'Megxit', can King Charles overcome the scandals that blight the family and limit the Sussexes' threat to the monarchy? Can the broken bonds between the Houses of Sussex and Windsor ever be repaired or will the King choose to strip them of their titles and banish them forever? The Sussexes are in a race against time to solve their predicament.

With inimitable research and exclusive interviews from insiders, Britain's leading investigative biographer Tom Bower exposes the latest contortions in the explosive Royal saga of power and betrayal.

'Tom Bower is the Inspector Morse of investigative biographers, a fluent, phlegmatic story-teller and a master of intricacies.' Sunday Times
Reviews
Profile Avatar David Lilly May 2026

This work is a hit piece aimed at Harry and Meghan, all criticism and no objectivity. It defends the British monarchy and culture at all costs and criticizes ruthlessly the once royal "back up" couple for turning to America for a life of independence. The author totally rejects the premise that not everyone is cut out to live a royal life and that rejecting such a life might actually be healthy and justifiable. If you already hate Meghan and Harry for rejecting a life under the scrutiny of both the British monarchy and tabloid press, then this book will offer you abundant confirmational bias. If you want to read a fair and balanced accounting of how and why Harry and Meghan did what they did after they married, this book is NOT for you. I couldn't finish it because it had an obvious anti Meghan and Harry agenda and its writing style and content was too negative and hate filled.

Well read, but I was hoping for a balanced piece of research. But the choice of words used is clear that the author’s purpose was to paint them in a bad light. It’s a pity, that there were no redeeming or mitigating observations. I stopped listening.

Profile Avatar Jodi B. May 2026

Just a hate book that is told in their own way, shame on the family for allowing this, Harrys book was t least reapectful, and insightful. Adults being bullies thats what this is. Makes the king and william look and sound disgraceful and childish. Queen Elizabeth would be disappointed, as she should be.
