Piers Morgan Says Earl Spencer Should Pull Diana Memoir From Shelves

Broadcaster Piers Morgan has said Earl Spencer, the brother of the late Princess Diana, should pull his memoir from shelves after Spencer apologized to Morgan over a factual error contained in the book.

Spencer's memoir, which recounts aspects of his life including his relationship with his sister, drew criticism after the error was identified, prompting Spencer to issue an apology directed at Morgan.

Morgan said he is pursuing legal action against Spencer in connection with the disputed claim, though further details of the legal steps being taken were not immediately available.

The dispute has drawn public attention given both men's prominence: Spencer as a member of the family of the late princess and a published author, and Morgan as a well-known media figure and broadcaster.

Neither the exact nature of the factual error nor the full content of Spencer's apology was disclosed in detail, though Morgan's comments indicate the matter remains unresolved between the two.

The publisher of Spencer's memoir has not been reported as commenting on the book's continued availability following the dispute.
