Diana's brother says he's 'telling truth' about king's 'monstrous' phone call
Princess Diana's brother has doubled down on his swathe of explosive claims about Britain's royal family, insisting he is "telling the truth", and suggesting the king is "embarrassed".
Charles Spencer, Princess Diana's brother, has spoken out in his first interview about explosive allegations he has made in his new memoir. The claims, which criticize Britain's royal family, have sparked a heated debate with Buckingham Palace. In the interview, Charles defended himself against the palace's statement, which questioned his claims.
He insisted he was "telling the truth" and suggested that King Charles was "embarrassed." Charles's allegations, particularly those concerning phone calls he claims to have had with Charles around Diana's death, have been met with strong rebuke from the palace. The monarch's spokesman stated that while they do not comment on books, the king is mindful of the pain of fraternal grief. Charles's claims have not been backed by any evidence, but he remains steadfast in his assertions.
