Dukes of Hazard

Harry, Andrew and Edward VIII. The Spares Who Shook the Throne.

In Dukes of Hazard, royal journalist Tom Sykes argues that the gravest threats to the British monarchy have never come from outside agitators but from within. Drawing on deep palace access and years of reporting, he traces a line from Edward VIII’s abdication to Prince Andrew’s disgrace and Prince Harry’s exile, revealing a pattern of institutional failure in handling the “Spare.” As King Charles and Prince William clash over how to contain these internal crises, Sykes exposes a monarchy at war with itself – and asks whether history is about to repeat itself.
