During the week marking 100 years since the birth of Queen Elizabeth II, host Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen is joined by former Press Secretary to the late Queen, Ailsa Anderson, and royal author Robert Hardman to explore the woman behind the Crown.
Drawing from Robert Hardman’s new book Elizabeth II: In Private. In Public. The Inside Story, this True Royalty Original reveals new insights into the late monarch’s character, sense of duty, humour and extraordinary global influence.
The programme revisits some of the defining moments of her reign, from her famous Covid address and the aftermath of Princess Diana’s death, to her relationships with world leaders including Donald Trump, who tells Hardman why a portrait of the late Queen now hangs prominently at Mar-a-Lago.
A deeply personal discussion about service, leadership and the legacy of one of the most influential figures in modern history. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
