Charles Spencer, the brother of late Princess Diana, has accused King Charles of gaslighting regarding the circumstances of his sister's death. In a new memoir detailing Diana's life, Spencer made several damaging claims about the monarch, asserting that he manipulated public perception. The book, which chronicles Diana's personal and public life, includes allegations that the king downplayed the role of his own actions in the tragic events of 1997.
Spencer described the media treatment of Harry and Meghan as reminiscent of the coverage surrounding Diana, suggesting it has a harmful influence. He emphasized the importance of learning from Diana's example, which he believes was overshadowed by the royal family's response to her death. The claims come as part of a broader critique of the monarchy's handling of the late princess's legacy.
The memoir has sparked renewed debate about the public's perception of the royal family and the legacy of Diana. Spencer insists he is speaking truthfully, though his allegations remain unverified. The book adds to ongoing discussions about the balance between royal privacy and public interest.
