‘Grief can colour memory’: Palace responds after Earl Spencer’s claim in Diana book
Buckingham Palace has responded after a claim by Earl Spencer, the brother of Diana, Princess of Wales, that King Charles said "we'll forget her soon enough" days after her death.
Buckingham Palace addressed the claim made by Earl Spencer, Diana's brother, regarding a statement from King Charles following his sister's death. Earl Spencer alleged that Charles told him, "we'll forget her soon enough" shortly after Diana's passing. The Prince of Wales reportedly subjected Earl Spencer to a "stream of anger" when Earl insisted that their mother would not have wanted Princes William and Harry, then aged 15 and 12, to participate in her funeral procession.
The Palace declined to comment on the book, stating that they do not comment on books as a matter of principle. However, Earl Spencer's book, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, is expected to be highly critical of the Royal Family. The book is due to be published next week and is said to be a difficult read for the recent history of the Royal Family.
