  Wallis, Diana and Meghan: Three Wives, One Narrative 
   
  One was a married American socialite who embarked on a scandalous affair with the future king of England. Another was an aristocratic ingenue whose winsome charm captured the world’s imagination. And the third was a thirty-something actress whose outspokenness put her on a collision course with the British public. The marriages of Wallis Simpson, Diana Spencer, and Meghan Markle into the British royal family sparked a series of crises that at times seemed to threaten the future of the monarchy itself. In Unroyal, veteran New York Times reporter and former London correspondent Sarah Lyall revisits how each royal wife threatened the stability of—and was ultimately rejected by—this most ancient and opaque of institutions.  
   
  Using archival material and interviews with experts like the bestselling author Tina Brown, the royal biographer Andrew Morton, and the social commentator and broadcaster Afua Hirsch, Lyall’s audio documentary examines three pivotal TV interviews in which each woman pushed up against the official royal narrative: Wallis in 1970, Diana in 1995, and Meghan in 2021. Lyall describes the differences and highlights the similarities between the women at these three flexion points to examine the endless codependent dance between the monarchy, the public, and the news media and to shed fresh light on the fraught intersection of power, fame, and family politics in an institution torn between tradition and modernization.  
   
  Narrated by the author against a beguiling soundscape of contemporaneous news footage and a spectral score, Unroyal blends the probing inquisition of You’re Wrong About with the historical intrigue of The Crown, serving both neophytes and obsessives a delectable royal feast for the ears.

   Australian voice-over artist Lofty Fulton knows what it's like to have the odds stacked against him: Born with achondroplasia, which is a form of dwarfism, his grandmother thought he should be locked away from the world.

  A prophetic memoir bridging heaven and earth — the fulfillment of a 200-year-old promise. 
  In The Seventh Generation Blessing, Chaplain Dr. Shirley Mower Canniff uncovers a divine inheritance hidden across centuries — a legacy that began with her ancestor, Rev. Freeborn Garrettson, the 18th-century Methodist reformer and abolitionist whose faith ignited revival and whose prophecy declared that a female descendant would one day continue his mission. 
  Seven generations later, Dr. Canniff stands as the living fulfillment of that prophecy. Through dreams, music, ministry, and healing, she discovers that God’s covenant transcends time — restoring families, generations, and nations through the power of love and obedience. 
  From the vision of a Victorian attic filled with holy light to her baptism in the River Jordan, Dr. Canniff’s journey weaves together faith, family, music, and medicine into a tapestry of hope. 
  Her voice — both as a chaplain and prophetic worshiper — calls readers to rediscover their own generational purpose and divine assignment. 
  Through vivid storytelling and spiritual reflection, The Seventh Generation Blessing invites you to witness:The rediscovery of a sacred family lineage from colonial AmericaThe prophetic connection between Rev. Freeborn Garrettson and Dr. Canniff’s modern-day ministryThe birth of her healing outreach, The Joshua Connection for FamiliesThe sacred inspiration behind her album Somewhere Between the Heavens and the EarthA living example of how God’s promises pass from one generation to the next 
  “Freedom is the song of the Lord, and love is the sound of every generation redeemed.”
