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?

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.… (more)

a very good book ( )
  KimSalyers | Oct 5, 2016 |
Written before the car crash in Paris, it is a full examination of her private and public life and the expectations for her private and public future. With contributions from her closest friends and advisors, this book gives a very fresh focus on the human story behind the sensational events that were her life so far. The reader's knowledge of what would eventually happen lends this book a very real and tragic ending.
