Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York is a forthcoming biography of Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Sarah, Duchess of York by Andrew Lownie.

It will be published by HarperCollins on 14 August 2025.[1] Lownie conducted four years of research and submitted 'numerous' Freedom of information requests for the book.[1] The book also examines Andrew's links with the convicted sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein (1953–2019) which HarperCollins describes as having "[begun] earlier, continued longer and were much more frequent than reported".[1]

The book claims that Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex punched Andrew at a family gathering in 2013 over comments that Andrew had made about him "behind his back" and that Andrew had disparaged Harry and his wife Megan's relationship in 2017.[2] Harry subsequently stated that he and Andrew "have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make the comments he is alleged to have made about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry".[2]
