Meghan: Royal Duchess and Mother

This beautifully illustrated biography of Meghan covers her early years, Hollywood career, fairytale wedding to Prince Harry, and new role as duchess and mother. This book features images of the couple's newborn son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

In 2018 a new kind of royal joined the House of Windsor. Her name was Meghan Markle and the country fell in love with her.

Following her marriage to Prince Harry, bi-racial American Meghan Markle has come to represent the changing face of the modern Royal Family. Like her husband, she communicates on issues of importance to her with passion and sincerity.

This book charts Meghan's extraordinary life so far, following her journey from the suburbs of Los Angeles where she grew up in a single-parent household to her life as a modern-day princess within one of the world's most important royal families. It describes her days as a successful film and television actress in the US, looks at her humanitarian work and discusses the 'Meghan effect', a direct result of her enormous popularity on both sides of the Atlantic. It also records, with stunning photos, her beautiful wedding to Prince Harry, a truly global celebration that attracted around 2 billion television viewers worldwide.

Post-wedding, we bring this royal love story up to date, defining Meghan's role as an ambassador for the Royal Family, looking in detail at her first year as Duchess of Sussex - and celebrating her new role as a mother.
