Once again Meghan and Harry are juggling with their identities.

They are clearly wanting to be royal having given up being 'royal'. If you decide to walk away from your royal identity just what are you left with?

This book,'Traitor King', tells the story of an inglorious royal. It is a shocking example of what happens when inherited status is randomly given to a person who is clearly not up to the task. The book is the basis of the Channel 4 programme that shed light on the whole episode.

As well as telling the historical story Andrew Lownie discusses the lessons that can be learned by the present Royal Family. Maybe food for thought for Andrew as well as Harry and Meghan.

Andrew Lownie is currently working on a biography of Price Andrew. Because of the rules surrounding the royals he is finding it impossible to access some of the documents he requires to write a substantial comprehensive book.

I'm looking forward to talking to Andrew about it.
