Books
This is the story of 'the real' Bodyguard, Lee Sansum, ex-Royal Military Policeman, martial arts champion, private military contractor and expert in close protection. In being part of Mohamed and Dodi al-Fayed's protection team, Lee also had to protect the most famous woman in the world, Princess Diana. He formed a close bond with Diana and the young princes, particularly Harry, and it was only by a stroke of luck that he was not in the car the night Diana died. That night proved to be the turning point in his own life. Over the course of his career, Lee has worked with the rich and famous, such as Hollywood stars Tom & Nicole, Pele and Sylvester Stallone, and he gives a candid account of what it's like to work in such a high-pressure job where lives are literally at stake.
