Princess Diana's Brother Alleges King Charles' Reaction After Her Death in New Memoir
Charles Spencer, brother of the late Princess Diana, published a memoir alleging that King Charles III sounded "giddily elated" after Diana's 1997 death and told him, "we'll forget her soon enough" during a dispute over their sons walking in her funeral procession. Spencer also discusses Diana's troubled marriage and her struggles. Buckingham Palace issued a rare strong denial, suggesting grief may affect Spencer's memory. The book has reignited debate over the royal family's response to Diana's death and her legacy.
