About this audiobook
Reissued for the twentieth anniversary of Diana’s death, this sensational bestseller is an explosive account of her life, from the man who was by her side throughout its most turbulent period.
In 1981 Lady Diana Spencer was seen by many as a lifeline for the outdated Windsor line. But Diana didn’t follow the script. Instead she brought a revolution.
Patrick Jephson was Diana’s closest aide and adviser during her years of greatest public fame and deepest personal crisis. He witnessed the disintegration of her marriage to Prince Charles and the negotiation of the royal divorce.
Rooted in unique first-hand experience, Shadows of a Princess is an authoritative, balanced account of one of the world’s most famous and tragic women.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very honest portrayal of what it was like to work for Princess Diana.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Lovely written and read. It's a new take from an insider on the princess's life. Highly recommended
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Having been a longtime fan of the Princess I found some of the information unbelievable yet by the end of this book found it had a ring of truth. Listening to Jephson reading it in the audio version I felt like he was genuine. He expressed both enjoyment of his job and his frustration as well. He drew a complete picture of this Princess worts and all. I’d recommend this to anyone interested in Diana the Princess of Wales.
