The Edwardian age is remembered as a glittering interlude between the staid Victorian era and the conflagration of the First World War.

In the August issue of Majesty, which goes on sale in the UK today, I explore the jewels that made the Edwardians sparkle.

It was the end of August when the shocking news came. A royal lady in the prime of her life who had been idolised by many and was the darling of the press had lost her life in a tragic car accident abroad. Her death turned her into an icon. 90 years on, in the August issue of Majesty, which is out today, I tell the story of the violent death of Queen Astrid of the Belgians and its aftermath.
