Brought to you by Penguin.

Susannah Constantine, our loved style guru and one half of the outrageously popular television programme, What Not to Wear, spent her youth entangled in glitz and glamour. Susannah's very first memoir is filled to the brim with scandalous stories, jaw-dropping royal relationships and star-studded encounters from pop stars to the fashion greats. But beneath it all is a woman who is still getting to know herself, even after falling in love at first sight, presenting one of the most monumental television programmes ever and having Princess Margaret as a second mother figure.

Uncertain of her future, unsure of how to cope with her own mother's tragic battle with bipolar disorder, and becoming a mother herself, Susannah is on a journey of discovery and her memoir tells you her greatest loves and lessons, bound together with disarming honesty and beguiling humour.

Funny . . . Never dull Included in 'Best celebrity autobiographies of 2022 to buy for Christmas' Absolutely brilliant Wonderfully written, very funny, but more than anything completely genuine We lunched better than we danced Shewd, funny, ideally candid and written with great confidence, brio and aplomb. A feisty, thought-provoking delight A romp . . . Constantine comes across as a trooper with a filthy sense of humour A rollicking ride . . . What a life Fascinating Sparkling Entertaining and funny Exuberant A treasure trove of previously untold stories . . . A riveting read Bonkers and brilliant. Her writing is exquisite. With comedy and candour, she bares her soul . . . Magnificent Filled with royal anecdotes and celebrity snippits . . . An entertaining read Astonishing, frank and frankly hilarious Wildly fun Gives readers a fascinating insight into [her] extraordinary life Sensational, juicy, gossipy, filthy and bravely honest in equal measure, Susannah Constantine's memoir is a rollicking romp through the upper middle classes Hilarious and honest, sparing neither herself nor her readers from incredibly intimate details . . . A book for anyone who's after laughter, tears and one hell of a rollercoaster ride Expand reviews
