Description
For ages, women have added luster and glory to European royal houses, with their extraordinary fates captivating contemporaries and subsequent generations. However, behind the walls of magnificent palaces, country estates, and hunting lodges, dramas often unfolded that the average person had no idea about. The ten stories presented in this book are undeniable proof of that. Life in luxury, the cheers of crowds, and media attention came at the cost of the main protagonists' privacy, freedom, and personal happiness. Few members of the high aristocracy of the present and past century managed to live a life according to their dreams and visions. Yet, through their beauty, professional activities, and behind-the-scenes intrigues, they have left an unforgettable mark on history, and their fates have become the basis for not only this book.
