The brother of the late Princess Diana, Charles Spencer, says Queen Elizabeth II considered restoring Diana’s Her Royal Highness (HRH) title. Spencer claims the offer was made on the day of Diana’s funeral, after she lost the HRH style when she divorced Prince Charles.
The reports cite Spencer’s account that the Queen reached out with the proposal, which he says he declined. All outlets present the claim as coming from Spencer, without attributing independent confirmation from Buckingham Palace or other official sources. The differing coverage focuses primarily on the same elements: the asserted timing of the offer, the specific HRH title in question, and that Spencer rejected the gesture.
