HARD BACKHIS TITLE IS LORD BROCKET OF BROCKET HALL.He seemed like the token toff when he signed up for the hit ITV show I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here! But within days he was bonding with Johnny Rotten, fondling Jordan, and taking to the Australian jungle as if to the manner born.Charlie Brocket's irrepressible sense of fun endeared him to millions. But the Brocket we saw then is only one side of his larger-than-life personality. Now, in this searingly candid autobiography, he tells his incredible tale in full. Often shocking, frequently hilarious, and always surprising, it lifts the lid on the extraordinary history of his family and shows how wrong our assumptions about the aristocracy can be.Despite his grandfather's attempts to prevent him inheriting the family fortune, Brocket fought to regain Brocket Hall, then fought again to turn the crumbling estate into a multi-million-pound business. His luxury lifestyle, beautiful home and world-famous collection of classic sports cars made Brocket a magnet for media attention. But his apparent triumph hid a bitter secret. Prevented by his family from marrying the woman he loved, Brocket had rushed into wedlock with a supermodel. Behind the glossy facade, he was trapped in an increasingly difficult relationship.Finally the bubble burst. Brocket's business ventures were hit by recession. An ill-advised scheme to save Brocket Hall led to a stunningly harsh conviction for fraud. He swapped his stately home for a prison cell.
