Harry and Meghan’s media treatment echoes what happened to Diana, Earl Spencer tells BBC
Earl Spencer has told the BBC that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's treatment at the hands of the media has "echoes" of what happened to his sister Diana, Princess of Wales.
Earl Spencer has told the BBC that the treatment of Prince Harry and Meghan by the media echoes the scrutiny Princess Diana faced in her life, describing it as a "cancerous influence." He urged people to learn from Diana's example to avoid similar fates. The Sussexes, who recently returned to the UK, have repeatedly criticized media treatment.
Earl Spencer, speaking to Laura Kuenssberg, said he believed Diana would identify with the Sussexes' experience. He recalled her "tears of despair" and sensitivity to criticism, emphasizing that she was brought low by such scrutiny. Earl Spencer also claimed that King Charles once told him people would forget Diana "soon enough," despite later distancing himself from the statement.
