India Hicks might be King Charles’s goddaughter, but she’s refreshingly down to earth despite growing up alongside royalty. The British designer and charity worker—whose mother, Lady Pamela Hicks, is Prince Philip’s first cousin—was a bridesmaid in Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s 1981 wedding. Recently, she sat down with Marie Claire to talk about her new book, Lady Pamela: My Mother's Extraordinary Years as Daughter to the Viceroy of India, Lady-in-Waiting to the Queen, and Wife of David Hicks, while visiting NYC to promote the title.
Hicks tells Marie Claire that her 95-year-old mother “has had an exceptional life in the fact that she’s obviously had a front-seat to historic events.”
