A renewed feud between Charles Spencer and Charles III
Lady Diana's brother publishes a book accusing Charles III of lacking empathy after the Paris accident, prompting a response from Buckingham Palace.
A feud has resurfaced between Charles Spencer, brother of Princess Diana, and King Charles III, twenty-nine years after the princess's death in Paris, according to an article in Le Monde.
In a new book, Charles Spencer reportedly accuses Charles III of displaying, in the terms cited, "careless cheerfulness" in the days following the fatal 1997 accident. The precise content of the book's passages and the detailed context of the accusations were not specified in the excerpt reviewed.
Buckingham Palace responded through a spokesman, according to Le Monde, with the statement: "The grief of fraternal mourning can cloud one's judgment." The palace did not provide, based on available information, a detailed point-by-point denial of the accusations made.
This controversy revives long-standing tensions within the British royal family regarding Diana's memory, who died in a car accident in Paris in 1997. Additional details about the book's content were not available from the source.
