The Rise
Michelle Mone's life was a rags-to-riches story that seemed too good to be true. Now, PPE Medpro, a company connected to her husband, is under investigation.
The extraordinary story of a young girl who grew up poor in Glasgow’s East End and went on to live a life filled with private jets, mega yachts and opulent homes around the world. But the price of these luxuries turned out to be much more than the money they cost.
Baroness Michelle Mone achieved everything she had ever dreamed of - fame, power, money and status. Yet just when she thought she had made it in life, it all came tumbling down.
