Princess Diana's Brother Says King Charles 'Gaslit' Him Over New Memoir Claims

Charles Spencer is speaking out about his upcoming memoir, and his comments are raising eyebrows across the internet. In an interview with ABC News, Diana’s brother said he felt“gaslit”by King Charles over the palace’s response to the book, which claims the then-Prince Charles said“we’ll forget her soon enough”after Diana’s death in 1997. Buckingham Palace said it doesn’t comment on books, noting that grief can cloud reason and memory. Spencer was quick to point out that the statement didn’t deny the quote either, which he found interesting.

Spencer also said he has no relationship with the royal family and no interest in having one, though he adds he respects the Crown and carries no bad blood with the king. For many, the story brings back memories of William and Harry, just fifteen and twelve, walking behind their mother’s coffin in 1997. The book,“Swan Song: Diana, My Sister,”is set for release on Tuesday, September 22, so expect this conversation to keep building through the week.

Is it fair for family members to write their own version of events, especially when the person at the center of the story can’t speak for herself? Let us know what you think in the comments.
