King Charles sounded like 'lottery winner' after Diana's death, her brother writes
Charles Spencer says the king reacted with unusual relief after Diana’s death, prompting a rare Buckingham Palace response over the memoir excerpts.
- In his new memoir Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, Earl Spencer claims King Charles sounded "giddily elated" and "like a lottery winner" shortly after Princess Diana died in 1997.
- Spencer further alleges that Charles remarked during an argument over the funeral procession for Prince William and Prince Harry that his ex-wife would soon be forgotten, telling him to "rest assured."
- The book details the couple's unhappy marriage, alleging Charles told Diana he was "not actually in love with her" and commented she looked "a bit chubby" after she found a bracelet for Camilla.
- Buckingham Palace responded on Wednesday, stating they do not comment on books as a matter of principle and noting that "the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory."
- Amid these allegations, King Charles made his first public appearance on Thursday; the memoir also includes claims regarding Diana's mental health struggles and her visits to Beachy Head in England.
