From Side Piece to Duchess: Wallis Simpson
WALLIS SIMPSON PREVIEW: Twice divorced, fiercely charming, and unapologetically herself, Wallis didn’t just turn heads, she turned the course of British history. From American debutante balls to the glittering circles of high British society, she made her way to the top (and into the heart of a king). Prince Edward became utterly obsessed with her quick wit and razor-sharp style, and before long, he gave up the crown for love...whether she wanted him to or not.
Was she a social climber? A scapegoat? Or just a woman who didn’t play by the rules? Let’s get into it.
