The Future Royal Family: William, Kate and the Modern Royals

Rate this book
An insightful, authoritative biography of “modern royals” William and Kate and their family, by the “Godfather of Royal Reporting”!

A true insider account of Prince William’s love affair with Kate Middleton, from their initial meeting while attending university in Scotland to married life in Wales while William pursued his Royal Air Force career. In the US, William and Kate are largely heralded as pop-culture he, the confident young Prince who is the future of the Royal family; she, the royal bride and future Queen Consort who is thoroughly modern and confounds all stereotypes of what a royal partner should be.

Published in time for the centenary of the House of Windsor (7/17/17), the American edition provides an in-depth look at the next chapter in this modern-day fairytale, packed with beautiful photographs, fascinating facts, and expert analysis into the most pivotal royal romance of our time. An intriguing insight and unrivaled souvenir, this is an essential read for royalists and romantics alike.

Dubbed the “Godfather of Royal Reporting” by The Wall Street Journal , Robert Jobson is one of Britain’s leading royal commentators. He is the Royal Editor of the London Evening Standard . In the US, he serves as the royal contributor for ABC’s Good Morning America and Forbes magazine. He is the author of William & Their Romance and Royal Wedding in Photographs and the co-author of Closely Guarded Secret . For more information, go to www.jobsonmedia.com.

This is a book for people who enjoy reading People magazine like articles about the Current Royal family. There is no scandal, no shocking information, but a reassuring tale of a happy family whose young Prince William dates wisely, takes care of his children and his wife has severe bouts of morning sickness when she is pregnant. Everyone is happy and the British along with commonwealth people should feel safe. The Royal Family is perfection.

Pretty standard fluff piece and a quick and easy read. Some of the tenses seemed weird, as if the book had just compiled a bunch of earlier pieces of reporting and sometimes the chronology was out of order or certain events were referenced more than once. Still a fine read though.

Oof, this was pretty dry and as someone who follows the Royal Family, I didn't learn anything new here.
