The anticipation for Lady D’s brother’s book is growing. And there is already a clash with Buckingham Palace

Buckingham Palace didn’t like the reconstruction that the conte Spencer, brother of Dianamade hours immediately after the death of the princess in 1997 in a car accident in Paris. In a memoir, due out next week, Earl Spencer revealed a heated exchange with the then crown prince and now king Carlo IIIwhich the royal palace has denied.

Charles’s alleged sentences after the death of Lady D

In a phone call with Carlo, the count would have expressed his doubts about the possibility of having his grandchildren William e Harry – then 15 and 12 years old – followed their mother’s coffin on foot. Diana would not have wanted her children to go through such an ordeal, she told her ex-brother-in-law. Who, in his story, reacted with anger, even to the wave of emotion aroused by the princess’s death. “Rest assured: we will forget about it soon enough,” he reportedly said of Diana.

Buckingham Palace’s reaction

Apparently comprehensive in form, but in substance it is a replica of Buckingham Palace. “While we do not comment on the books on principle, Her Majesty is aware that a brother’s grief can cloud reason, influence judgment and color memories in a way that others do not recognize, even many years after such a loss,” an official statement read.
The language of the note reminded the British media of the unexpectedly firm response of the Queen Elizabeth to Harry’s accusations against a member of the Royal Household (never identified) who allegedly made a racist joke about his wife Meghanin 2021. “Recollections may vary,” the sovereign said.
Earl Spencer’s book, ‘Swan Song: Diana, My Sister’ will be published next week. And the anticipated one may not be the only complicated memory for King Charles.
