Since I Was A Princess

In 'Once I Was A Princess' Jacqueline Gillespie told how her marriage to an Islamic Malaysian prince, went horribly wrong, descending from fairy tale into a cycle of abuse, deception and virtual imprisonment. When she decided to leave him and return to Australia with their two children, her former husband exacted a terrible revenge, kidnapping the children. It was a story which made international headlines. But what happened next?

Here, in a long awaited sequel, Jacqueline reveals how she channelled her grief and loss into a positive force, helping other parents whose children had been abducted. Marrying again, she began another family, and worked as a CARE ambassador in refugee camps. But all the time she hoped to hear something of her two young children - and of their lives in Malaysia. And finally she received an email which became the first step in the highly anticipated and emotional reunion with her daughter, earlier this year.

A gripping true story 'Since I was a Princess' is a deeply affecting memoir of love and faith rewarded.
