Tina Brown on The Vanity Fair Diaries, plus Advice for Meghan Markle

Tina Brown, editor extraordinaire-author-longtime favorite guest, joins Satellite Sisters Lian, Liz and Julie for a lively, thoughtful, personal discussion about her new book The Vanity Fair Diaries. Plus, she offers advice to Meghan Markle, the American woman about to marry Prince Harry. Brown, who was very close to Prince Harry's mother Diana, has a unique take on this transition from Hollywood TV star to British royalty and a little bit of a warning, too. Vanity Fair Diaries is Tina Brown's contemporaneous diaries from the days when she hit New York as the shiny new editor of the struggling glossy magazine Vanity Fair. This is a remarkable woman's adventures in a glittering and scorching era: 1983 - 1992. Bold faced names in this Satellite Sisters discussion include Reagan, von Bulow, Demi Moore and Princess Diana.  To listen to the Satellite Sisters previous interview with Tina Brown about her bestseller The Diana Chronicles, go here.  Thanks to Thrive Market for sponsoring this week s Satellite Sisters.
