Overview
- Titled The Showgirl and The Prince, the memoir recounts Henshall’s on-and-off relationship with Prince Edward from 1988 to 1993.
- Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams cautioned the book may be “nightmarish” for Buckingham Palace and could contain “intimate insights.”
- Henshall says she drew on personal diaries and letters she found, including correspondence from Edward, to inform the account.
- She previously spoke openly about the romance on television in 2020 during I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!.
- It is unclear whether the Palace has seen the manuscript, as Edward marked his 62nd birthday at the Paralympic Winter Games and Andrew remains under investigation after his arrest.
