Young, rich, and beautiful, these youngsters realize that being born into royalty has its perks, but they are also acutely aware that being royal means living life in a fishbowl. While the generation before them struggled to come to terms with their royal position in this modern, media-driven age, it appears that these young royals are effortlessly thriving in the new status quo.

Tragically, iconic royals like Diana, Princess of Wales, and Princess Grace of Monaco are no longer with us. But their lives remain the subject of intense global fascination—and so, too, the lives of their offspring.

The Monegasque children seem to have been born with elegance in their DNA and have put Monaco back on the map as one of Europe’s most glamorous and youthful monarchies. Meanwhile, Prince William and Prince Harry have not only kept their mother’s flame alight, but have captured the adoration of millions. (And with the addition of Catherine Middleton, it’s safe to say that William’s glamour has increased tenfold.) All of the young aristocrats and royals mentioned in this book have a strong sense duty, a unique sense of fun, and a fresh determination to leave their own mark on the monarchy. But will they avoid the mistakes of their parents?

Whatever the future holds, we know that in this ever-changing world, these bright young bluebloods will continue to pique our interest, surprise the media, shock their families, pull our heartstrings, and honor their historical royal heritage—while inspiring everyone to find the human nobility that dwells inside us all.
