Giles Andreae
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Giles Andreae is Britain's best-selling contemporary poet, through his personas "Purple Ronnie" and "Edward Monkton".
A graduate of Oxford University, Andreae completed his degree under difficult circumstances as he developed Hodgkin's lymphoma, a cancer of the lymph glands, and began an intensive course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy the day before his final exams began. He managed to sit some of his papers, and was awarded an upper second class degree.
Giles lives with his wife Victoria, a children’s clothes designer for Mini-Boden, in Notting Hill, where he shares an office with writer Richard Curtis and radio and TV presenter Mariella Frostrup.
He also has a seaside retreat in Dorset. Giles and Victoria have three children: Flinn, and twins, Freya and Nat, who were born at the end of the last millennium.
