Princess Margaret's former Lady in Waiting shares everything she's learned from her extraordinary and unexpected life.

'Glorious and highly readable' - iPaper

Anne Glenconner's glittering life hasn't always been golden. As she revealed in her astonishing bestselling memoir Lady in Waiting, it has been one of stark contrasts - from growing up in the splendour of Holkham Hall to living in a tent in the jungle of Mustique, from travelling the world with Princess Margaret to coping with her wildly unpredictable husband Lord Glenconner. Tragically, she has also survived the loss of two of her sons and nursed a third son back from a coma.

At her happiest in her ninetieth year, Anne brings her bracing honesty, characteristic wit and courage to reflect on and reveal more about her long and unexpected life, her extremely volatile marriage, and what it's taught her.

As a wife, she became a master in the art of keeping the peace, knowing when to pick her battles, when she needed help - and when to take a lover. As a hostess, she acquired great practical skills in throwing marvellous parties and looking after magnificent homes, and, as a lady in waiting, became well versed in diplomacy and etiquette. It was as a mother she learnt the toughest lessons of all, and through them the value of friendship, family, and laughter to get her through the worst moments in life, as well as celebrate the best of them.

Anne Glenconner's Whatever Next? is the richly entertaining proof that staying open to every new adventure and being ready for whatever happens sets an inspiring example for us all.

What a lovely book and how good that it was read by Anne herself. It made me reflect on my mother’s life, tole and experiences as there were so many similarities. It was very illuminating to hear positive reflections about Princess Margaret who generally gets bad press. What a positive and entertaining person Anne is and how wonderful of her to write about her life warts and all so we can get a glimpse of it as well as giving us some insight into the Royal Family. Thank you Anne

Interesting, moving and positive

I’ve read both of Anne’s books. She comes over as a very warm and honest “Lady”. She has led a fascinating and sometimes very sad and cruel life. She deserved to have a kind and loving husband though .. goodness knows how she put up with Colin .. maybe she’ll find that kind companion one day!

Love Lady Anne!

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Different stories from A Lady in Waiting, even better that she narrates herself

Well worth buying

Fascinating life of Anne Glenconner

Read with honesty and candour, but with little understanding of privilege and wealth. How both of these can make life however difficult and tragic easier and survivable!!

Very good
