New Prince Charles biography set to cause shockwaves in palace

An unauthorised biography about Prince Charles is to be released in March, which could potentially cause some unrest for the royal family.

The Tom Bower book is due to drop around the same time as Prince William’s third child and Prince Harry’s wedding.

But despite his current high levels of popularity, Prince Charles is known for not wanting the spotlight on his past as he prepares to assume the throne.

During the recent 20th anniversary of Princess Diana’s death, Prince Charles saw his popularity plummet, so it’s safe to assume that dredging up the past is not on his priority list.

According to the Daily Star, Tom Bower wants to give the reader an insight into a “royal household rife with intrigue and misconduct”.

He claims to have spoken to more than 120 “royal insiders” for material for the book – a claim which the palace believes to be false.

Still, Bower states, “There are a lot of revelations. I was amazed how much new material there was. It’s got a lot of very, very new, untold information.”

Rebel Prince: The Power, Passion and Defiance of Prince Charles will be published on March 22 in the UK.
