Summary
We are taking a voyage this week with Dominick Dunne, who is attending the 60th birthday party bash of Colin Tennant, 3rd Baron Glenconner at the end of 1986. Colin had a great party the decade before and Princess Margaret is no stranger to the party time hedonistic time happening on the island. Dunne attends this celebration, but this is not Nick’s first introduction to Princess Margaret.
In the first part of this getaway episode, we explore Dunne’s previous relationship with Princess Margaret, fill in a bit of backstory on her land and home in Mustique, and get to the boat, right on time, for Colin’s party. It truly is a family affair.
