Best-selling author Tom Bower reveals the making of a monarch – King Charles III

King Charles faces many challenges as he succeeds his mother to the throne. Despite his hard work and genuine concern for the disadvantaged, King Charles III has struggled in the past to overcome his unpopularity. After Diana’s death, his approval rating crashed to 4% and has been only rescued by his marriage to Camilla.

In unearthing many secrets and dramas surrounding King Charles, Bower’s book, relies on the testimony from over 120 people employed or welcomed into the inner sanctum. The result is a book which uniquely probes the character and court of Charles that no one, until now, has seen. It offers an unrivalled and intimate look at King Charles, his many years as heir and how a monarch was made.

The King wears no clothes

A book with eye-openings about Charles and other royalties.

Many specifics were known to me and gave validity to the book. What I didn’t know was the ‘ponytail’ projects behind what was the result of years of deliberate scheming of Charles.
Astonishing is Charles show of entitlement and abuse of people.
Alarming is his sympathy with the ISIS/Islam nations and associated royalty in exchange for money.
Camilla might be seen as calming him but EVERY move is choreographed to feed their narcissistic beasts.
Long live the Queen!
