Princess Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, is due to release a memoir titled “Swan Song: Diana, My Sister” next week, nearly 30 years after her death in a car crash. Several outlets report that the book includes claims directed at King Charles and is framed as a “bombshell” account.
Earl Spencer says his allegations will not be a surprise to Princess Diana’s sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, according to coverage. The Daily Record also characterizes the upcoming publication as sparking a row involving William and Harry and the king. The New York Post similarly notes that the memoir is set to be released in both the UK and the US, describing Spencer’s remarks to connect his anticipated disclosures to what the nephews already know or expect.
Both reports focus on the timing of the release and Spencer’s intention to publicly air allegations concerning Charles following Diana’s death, while offering limited detail on the specific content of the claims. The different angles mainly relate to how each outlet describes the confrontation and how Spencer characterizes its relevance to William and Harry.
