On the surface, his life appears to be a dream come true. From growing up as a bullied boy in a small northern town, to achieving international success in his greatest passion — Europe's royal houses. But life hasn't all been champagne and palaces. Interwoven with glamorous assignments and close relationships with world royalty, his life has contained streaks of darkness and deep trauma.
