A Biography of the Future Queen

By: Robert Jobson

Narrated by: Lucy Scott

Through the author’s extensive connections within the royal household, this dynamic new biography tells the full story of how Catherine, the Princess of Wales, became the woman she is today.

Kate Middleton’s life story seems like a modern-day fairy tale.

An attractive, clever, and ambitious girl from unexceptional beginnings meets and falls in love with a wealthy prince when they are both college undergraduates. Now, with the British monarchy in transition, Catherine is destined to become the first “commoner Queen” in British history since Anne Hyde, wife of James II.

Since her wedding on April 29th, 2011—and since becoming the Duchess of Cambridge—Catherine has endeared herself to the people of the Britain and America with her extensive travels, with her infectious smile, sense of style, and down-to-earth nature. With her self-deprecation, willingness to laugh at herself, solid work-ethic—along with William’s warmth, and accessibility—this dynamic duo has become the most popular members of the royal family.

As interest in the royals continues to gain legions of new, younger fans, there is increasing interest in the histories and back stories of the principal players in this story. Through the author’s connection with sources both on and off the record within the royal household, this dynamic new biography tells the full story of how Catherine became the woman she is today.

The level of detail

I am a royalist & follow the English royal family on a regular basis. I didn’t expect to learn anything new, I expected to hear the same information that I knew. Imagine my surprise when I learned a few new things. I think another thing that surprised me is the recent information which is very current. This is the book you want to read if you have any desire to learn more about the Princess of Wales.

Very well narrated and included Princess Catherine as both Royal and wife/mother.
Enjoyed learning more about the remarkable, resilient woman, who is loved and admired by a watching world.

Meh

Nothing that has not been said. Too many times.

At least the narrator wasn’t horrible.

Kindness

A breath of fresh air. She is going to usher in kindness and compassion to a world desperately in need

Growth of honor

The support she and her husband give each other and the way the couple take care of their children
