OK I am defeated, so I am throwing this one out to the authors out there.
“Most famous author in the UK”
Lived in China for several years and brought at least one son up there.
Once stood on the balcony of an asylum with Berlusconi.
Has an exceptionally mannerless and badly behaved son.
If anyone has any ideas who this is, please reply to the tweet as comments on this website just get handbag adverts.
Thanks
Ina
