Royal biographies often promise access; this one sounds like it. In William & Catherine: The Intimate Inside Story, Russell Myers brings his years on the royal beat to the microphone, and that decision—to narrate his own work—proves crucial. Over almost 11 hours, you can listen to someone who has stood outside palace gates in the rain and chased down briefings before dawn.

Myers traces the arc from St Andrews to the turbulence of recent years: the Caribbean tour backlash, the Sussex rupture, the death of Queen Elizabeth II, and the seismic health crises facing both the Princess of Wales and King Charles III. The pacing is deliberate but never plodding; revelations are layered carefully, giving listeners time to absorb the emotional weight behind the headlines.

Myers avoids tabloid sensationalism, opting instead for quiet context and institutional insight. When he speaks of the couple’s evolution toward what he terms a more modern monarchy, there’s a subtle undercurrent of urgency—history in motion rather than nostalgia.

For listeners fascinated by the future of the House of Windsor—and by the human cost of public duty—this is absorbing, thoughtful, and undeniably compelling audio.
