Balloon flights, baton relays, Buckingham Palace, David Beckham, boys and booze – event impresario, Di Henry’s life has been anything but B-Grade. In this rattling retelling, royals, CEOs, celebrities, Sheikhs and superstars rub shoulders with the great unwashed. Everyone has a story to tell, especially Henry, once branded as the woman who touched the Queen! From professional triumph to personal free fall, this book strips bare every outrageously well-lived moment. Mordantly funny and morally provoking, it is, like the writer herself, a fabulous contradiction. Wherever Henry turns up, the circus – or the Olympics – is in town!
