Released in the United States on 1 June 2018 (and due to be released on 5 July in the UK), Jane Dismore’s Princess The Early Life of Queen Elizabeth II takes a look back, as the title states, at Her Majesty’s young life beginning before she was even born.
While writing my review, I’ve tried not to give too much away, so that you all can enjoy the book for yourselves without it…

If you were secretly hoping that the new Lifetime movie – Harry and Meghan: A Royal Romance – would be good, I’m sorry to burst your bubble. The Crown it is not.

Who Will Walk Meghan Markle Down the Aisle?
14th May 2018

And, personally, I…

Following the death of Prince Henrik, rumours that Queen Margrethe II of Denmark will abdicate have once again began circulating.
These rumours have been around for some years stating that The Queen of Denmark would abdicate in favour of her eldest son and heir, Crown Prince Frederik, mostly due to her advanced age and the very high popularity of both the Crown Prince and his wife, Crown Princess…
