520 _a"Entitled is the first joint biography of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson by renowned royal biographer and literary agent, Andrew Lownie."--
520 _aThis explosive biography of the Duke and Duchess of York - - Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson - exposes the secrets and scandals behind their extravagant lives and troubled marriage. Entitled presents an unvarnished and meticulously researched account of two of the most controversial figures in modern royal history. Based on years of investigation, extensive Freedom of Information requests and more than a hundred interviews with previously silent sources, acclaimed royal expert Andrew Lownie delivers an authoritative and deeply revealing dual portrait of the Duke and Duchess, whose lives and relationship have been marked by privilege, controversy, and public fascination. Tracing their stories from childhood through their high-profile courtship and marriage, dramatic divorce, and enduring connection as "the happiest divorced couple in the world," Entitled digs deeper than ever before into a pair that has long been a source of scrutiny. Lownie examines Prince Andrew's trajectory from a celebrated naval officer to a disgraced royal accused of sexual assault and stripped of his public duties, and unpacks the truth of his lavish lifestyle and the enduring fallout from his association with Jeffrey Epstein. More than just a story of personal failings or royal scandal, Entitled examines the broader context of a monarchy navigating public accountability and the pressures of modernity. The result is a compelling and nuanced portrait of a flawed couple whose lives have defined and defied the expectations of royalty in the 21zst century, and whose actions continue to resonate far beyond the palace walls.
