Originally published in 1982, this is the 2nd revised and abridged edition, 2017.
A somewhat guarded yet interesting account of Eileen Parker's life up to her divorce from Mike Parker, UK's Prince Philip's long-time private secretary. If you want to read something scandalous and gossipy, this is not for you. It is simply one woman’s story of how her husband’s job with Prince Philip affected their marriage. Eileen Parker obtained a divorce from Mike in 1958 on the grounds of adultery. The Queen promoted Philip to Prince so that he didn't have to testify in Mike Parker’s divorce trial. Prince Philip remained friends with Mike Parker after his divorce scandal.
Review:
'Only Eileen Parker could write a book like Step Aside for Royalty with its intimate portrait of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip in the early years of their enduring partnership. Eileen was inside Buckingham Palace for all the grand state occasions as well as the private moments of crisis and joy.Eileen knew Prince Philip before his marriage. Later, her husband Mike Parker became the Prince's first private secretary and the ‘Parkers of the Palace’ became part of the furniture at Court. Prince Philip even gave them his car. The events that tested Mike and Eileen's marriage to breaking point have been seen in fiction in the Netflix television series, The Crown. Here’s the real story in Eileen's own words.'
