Architecture

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"Well I'm a very similar age to Prince Charles. I'm a year older than him. I was at university at the same time as him. I think in the sixties, like all the Royals, he really had very little impact on my life at all and he seemed, if anything a lot older in his attitudes."

Life

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"A close associate of his gave an interview in which the book was described as quotes 'fiction from being to end'. I suffered trial by tabloid for a couple of weeks, lots of insults in the press, in the columns - this man should be put in the tower and so on."

Being

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"They tend to be civil servants, often diplomats drawn from the Foreign Office, who may be very pleasant, intelligent people, but once they get inside the Palace they're riveted to the status quo and they lose track of public opinion in the real world."

Anthony Holden
"I think the relation between the monarchy and the press is very much a two-way street."

Press

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"Well the wedding in the words of the Archbishop of Canterbury was a fairy tale and there was a huge public impress, investment of goodwill, affection and indeed money in this Institution. It was a huge success at the time."

Money

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"I decided he'd changed so much that a whole new book was required and that book actually I can say so was the first to say that the marriage was in trouble and the Prince didn't like at all and my book was being serialized in the Sunday Times over five weeks."

Marriage

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"It was delightful but, of course, it was pretty insulting to my professional reputation."

Pretty

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"I first got to know Charles in the late seventies when I wrote an article and then a book about him and I think at the time he came across as quite appealing, it was probably the height of his popularity."

Time

Quote_1.png
Anthony Holden
"I've always said, since I got to know him and wrote about him, that he's the generation he least appeals to is his own and I think in many ways he was born middle-aged and that's become apparent in recent years."
