Part of situation: Charles Spencer memoir sparks legal threats and royal debate (11 clusters)

Charles Spencer memoir alleges controversial remarks by King Charles III

Charles Spencer King Charles III Princess Diana Swan Song memoir British Royal Family

Charles Spencer, the brother of the late Princess Diana, has released a memoir titled ‘Swan Song: Diana, My Sister’ that contains several controversial allegations against King Charles III. Spencer claims that in the days following Diana’s death in 1997, the then-Prince of Wales sounded ‘giddily elated’—likening him to a ‘lottery winner’—and told Spencer, ‘Rest assured, we’ll forget her soon enough.’

Spencer also describes a heated argument with the King regarding funeral arrangements, specifically concerning whether Princes William and Harry should walk behind their mother’s coffin. The memoir further details Diana’s personal struggles, including her mental health, potential ADHD, and thoughts of suicide. Spencer also draws parallels between the media treatment of Diana and the current scrutiny faced by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, describing the latter as a ‘cancerous influence.’

Buckingham Palace has issued an unusual response to the claims, stating that while they do not typically comment on books, the King is ‘mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory’ in ways others may not recognize.
