You’ve read all about it in the press, now you can read all about it again in the book: “William and Kate: A Royal Love Story” hits the shops this week in London and is said to be winging its Royal way across the Atlantic before Christmas.

The Associated Press reports that the book was penned by The Sun‘s royal reporter, James Clench, and has been published by the British tabloid and Harper Collins — both owned by media mogul Rupert Murdoch. The book will trace the history of the royal couple’s love story from it’s roots at a university fashion show to last week’s engagement.

Unsurprisingly, it’s the first of several books planned for release ahead of the April 29 wedding. Although the book has no official royal backing, this must-have Christmas gift for Royal collectors around the world will surely do the business sales wise. It includes many photographs of a variety of Royals as well as the happy couple by the Sun‘s royal photographer, Arthur Edwards.
