HRH, Princess Michael of Kent talks about her life, and her latest book
King Henri II ordered his coronation robes to be embroidered with the symbols of the woman he loved: Diane de Poitiers. Tiny pearls depicted her bows, arrows, and the letter 'D' interlaced with 'H'. But he was married to another: Catherine de Medici. There were always three people in the marriage.
Her Royal Highness, Princess Michael of Kent joins Jenni to talk about her new book The Serpent and the Moon, a story of intrigue and scandal in Renaissance France, and how her own life has attracted controversy of a different kind.
