In this episode of Violet Manners in Hidden Heritage, Violet is joined by designer, writer and entrepreneur India Hicks - a woman born into history who chose to build her life somewhere entirely her own.
The daughter of Lady Pamela Hicks and the legendary designer David Hicks, India grew up at the intersection of royal history and radical interior design. Her mother stood at the heart of 20th-century royal life. Her father reshaped the visual language of Britain’s great houses.
And yet India chose Harbour Island in the Bahamas.
In this conversation, India reflects on:
Growing up between tradition and reinvention
Who Lady Pamela truly was behind closed doors
The influence of Lord Mountbatten
Her father’s creative audacity
Recording the podcast conversations that brought her mother’s voice to a global audience
Life in the Caribbean beyond the postcard image
Her work with The King’s Trust
Marriage later in life
Reinvention, resilience and legacy
A conversation about identity, inheritance and choosing your own horizon.
