A biography on Princess Kate and Prince William is set to be released next month, marking the first time a biography on the couple has been written in over a decade.
The book, written by royal editor Russell Myers, will be released on February 26, 2026.
Published by Ebury Spotlight, an imprint of Penguin Random House, the work represents the first comprehensive portrait of the couple together in more than 10 years.
Mr Myers shared the news on X, stating: “I am delighted to announce that my first book, William & Catherine: The Intimate Inside Story, will be published on 26th February.

“It will also be out in the US on 10th March…I can’t wait to share it with you all!”
The biography will chart the royal couple’s journey from their initial encounter at St Andrews University through to their current roles as senior working royals.
Drawing on exclusive conversations with Palace insiders, the book will examine several defining moments, including the intense media scrutiny surrounding their 2022 Caribbean tour and the Princess of Wales’s cancer diagnosis, which emerged alongside the King’s own health battle.
Mr Myers has also addressed the departure of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from royal duties, the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, and what the author described as the formation of the “Cambridge way” of operating within the institution.

The veteran royal journalist, who has spent nearly a decade tracking William and Kate as part of the press pack, expressed his belief that there is far more to the couple than public appearances suggest.
“I am immensely grateful to Ebury for granting me the platform to explore the unseen,” Mr Myers said.
“The result is a truly intimate portrait of William and Catherine; providing not just unparalleled insight into who they are as individuals, but seismic revelations about them as a couple and the world they inhabit.”
He added that the biography “moves beyond the headlines as it explores love, resilience, and their journey together as they navigate their public duties amid this unprecedented era.”

Lorna Russell from Ebury Spotlight emphasised the significance of the timing, noting the monarchy finds itself amid considerable upheaval.
“It’s a time of extreme change and turmoil in the monarchy, and Russell finds a very human, emotional story unfolding at the centre of it. It’s powerful and revealing,” she said.
The publisher added that readers would encounter Britain’s future King and Queen from an entirely fresh perspective, discovering “a very real family, living their lives behind the pomp and ceremony.”
She predicted the biography would “completely change the narrative on the Royal family, in unexpected ways.”
