Hugo Vickers - Behind Closed Doors: The Tragic Untold Story of Wallis Simpson

Wallis Simpson, Duchess of Windsor died in Paris in April 1986, a few weeks short of her 90th birthday. Despite having vanished from public life for more than a decade, her death made headlines around the world, prompting a fresh retelling of Edward VIII’s abdication story, and reignited a long-smouldering feud between the exiled Windsors and the Royal Family.
