Britain's King Charles appeared elated like a lottery winner after his late first wife Diana passed away, according to her brother Charles Spencer, who reveals these details in his upcoming book, excerpts of which were published on Thursday. Spencer's account, featured in the Daily Mail, suggests that Charles was giddily elated in the immediate aftermath of Diana's death in 1997, possibly because he believed it would grant him the freedom to remarry.
However, the king has taken a unique approach to address the criticism that has followed the publication of Spencer's book, responding via a spokesperson. The spokesperson stated that grief can affect one's reason, judgment, and memory, without providing any new comments from King Charles himself regarding the latest excerpts.
The book also mentions that Diana herself made several attempts to end her life at Beachy Head, the highest chalk sea cliff in England, driven by her desire to be free of her burdens. Spencer writes that Diana's love for her sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, prevented her from going any further with her suicidal thoughts.
