Lady in Waiting: My Extraordinary Life in the Shadow of the Crown
by Anne Glenconner
This is a small, enjoyable, easy to read peak behind the curtains of how the other half lives. Anne, born the oldest of three girls to the Earl of Leicester. Destined to never inherit the earldom or home, she was presented as the debutant of the year. As a result she married Colin Tennant, Baron of Glenconner, one time Princess Margaret suitor. Colin is eccentric to say the least. Thru there 55 year marriage they saw so much together; triumph to tragedy. This included 30+ years as Lady in Waiting to Princess Margaret, loss of two children, buying/selling the island of Mystique. At the end of the day, her husband left her nothing. He left to a person who was like a personal aide to carry out his "wishes." Anne is a person who thrived and survived, no matter what.
Fun facts:
Anne was once engaged to Princess Diana's father
Anne share a very tender/personal moment with Diana and explains the differences of Diana and old school royals respectfully
Anne's father didn't trust her husband and told her to buy a house of her own. In the end, it is all she had left to her name.
