    Diana: Her New Life

    Written by Andrew Morton

    Narrated by Lynn Redgrave

    4/5

    About this audiobook

    The publication in 1992 of Andrew Morton's Diana: Her True Story shook the British Royal family to its very foundations. Initially greeted with disbelief, as time passed, it became clear that the book was, as its title claimed, Diana's true story.

    Diana's friends were hopeful that separation from Charles would bring Diana freedom to find happiness. But has it? With her marriage in limbo and her children only occasionally by her side, Diana's position in the royal family is one of increasing isolation. Diana: Her New Life chronicles the secret battles that have raged behind closed doors, and Diana's frustration as she tries to break free from the restrictions of her semi-detached royal life.

    Again with unprecedented access to some of Diana's closest friends, Andrew Morton strips away the royal propaganda and reveals how Diana is learning to become a woman in her own right not a puppet of the palace, and shares Diana's private thoughts on retirement from public life, remarriage, the men in her life, and the grooming of Prince William for his future role.

      Diana’s life has been an intriguing tabloid material ; she was married to the heir of the British throne and captivated billions of people around the world. Diana had often been hailed as the woman who brought the British monarchy closers to its subjects. However, Diana was no saint; she was bitter sometimes and manipulate the media to her advantage. I have been a Diana sympathizer but Charles, Prince of Wales has been cordial when he spoke of Diana. She was not.
