Royal Scandal cover

The eighth novel in the hilarious bestselling The Princess Diaries series

The eighth in the bestselling Princess Diaries series. Mia is facing a crisis. There's massive friendship drama and her stupid hair can't seem to get with the royal program. And, oh yeah, Michael is moving to Japan! Can their love possibly withstand the distance?

Read the series that inspired the smash-hit Disney film, starring Anne Hathaway!

The new school year's only just started, and already the drama has begun! Royal Scandal is the eighth entry in the Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot.


Life takes a dramatic turn for Mia, as her best friend lets slip a shocking revelation – Lilly has got together with J.P.!

Mia is further thrown off by her new haircut which, let's just say, hasn't turned out as regal as expected.

Then Michael drops a bombshell. He has been accepted to a year-long Computer Science course – in Japan!

Can his love for Mia stretch across continents? Or will this be the end of Princess Mia's fairytale?

Continue the Princess Diaries with Bad Heir Day, the ninth book in the series.

Previously published as After Eight, and in the US as Princess on the Brink.
