The Rise
The life of Michelle Mone was a rags-to-riches story that seemed too good to be true. Now, she is under investigation for fraud and facing a possible prison sentence.
The extraordinary story of a young girl who grew up poor in Glasgow’s East End and went on to live a life filled with private jets, mega yachts and opulent homes around the world. But the price of these luxuries turned out to be much more than the money they cost.
Baroness Michelle Mone achieved everything she had ever dreamed of - fame, power, money and status. Yet just when she thought she had made it in life, it all came crumbling down.
