When Harry Met Sandra

Product Information

The King’s formidable sister, the Princess Royal, 73, is portrayed as the chief architect of the decision to evict Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage, their Windsor home. Scobie claimed many within the royal institution doubt the King’s ability to modernise and are impatient to see the Prince of Wales crowned. The couple share frank accounts of Harry's battle with depression during his tenure as a football manager, his arrest for alleged tax evasion and when he accidentally ran Sandra over leaving her with a crushed foot. They also share the many happy times they've shared, from their time spent living in America with Bobby Moore to the births of their grandchildren and of how close they have all remained as a family unit.

You’ve had your fair share of abuse in football but said the worst was when someone said they “hoped your wife got cancer”. How did you deal with that? Princess Anne is described in the book as being “at the forefront of the supporters of the firm approach” taken against the Sussexes.

About Harry Redknapp

The Duke of Sussex is ready to put the bitter feud with his family behind him and move on but Meghan has refused to have anything to do with them, Scobie claims. Harry: It was fantastic for me because they both loved sport, they loved football, and as kids they were respectful and polite. In his interview with the magazine, Scobie noted that when he started writing his book, Elizabeth II was still alive.

Sandra was beside herself when I was on trial in 2012 for tax evasion. It broke my heart how upset she was. But even though I knew she was angry, we never had an argument about it. We’ve always said throughout our marriage that you can’t just have a row, and throw the towel in. You’ll have good days and bad days and you just have to work through it.

Harry regaled his campmates, in his signature down-to-earth style with tales of how they met in the Two Puddings pub and of how Sandra makes the best jam roly-poly pudding in the business - which became his ultimate craving during the long days and nights with little more than rice and beans to keep them going.
