Ever wondered what it’s like inside the Royal Household? Lady Anne Glenconner, at 93 years young, spills the tea on her astonishing experiences with King Charles in her new memoir, “Manners and Mischief: An A-Z of a Life Lived Well.” As a former lady-in-waiting to Princess Margaret, Anne shares tales from a lifetime among royalty. One story in particular left her floored—a gesture from King Charles that she never saw coming.
Recounting the moment, Anne explains how she was stunned to receive an invitation from King Charles to a small, exclusive gathering. Limited to just 120 close friends, this nod was unbelievably special. And dinner with the king himself three days later? She was in awe and gleefully described the event as “Magnificent!”
Anne is clearly embracing her golden years, dotting about to places like Vienna and Chatsworth while soaking up all life has to offer. From speaking engagements to champagne dinners with literary greats like Jilly Cooper, she’s living her best life. Her stories are not only fascinating but a testament to the extraordinary world she’s navigated—one “with a bang,” as she puts it.
Her book is a sure read for anyone intrigued by Royal Family insights. It follows her 2019 bestseller “Lady in Waiting,” where she candidly opened up about both her career and a tumultuous marriage. If you’re keen for more tales from royal circles, add this one to your list! 📚👑
