Buckingham Palace Issues Strong Denial of Claims in Charles Spencer's Memoir

Buckingham Palace has issued a rare and sharp denial against claims in Princess Diana's brother Charles Spencer's new memoir that King Charles III said Diana would be forgotten following her death in 1997.

Striking Claims in the Memoir

Charles Spencer's upcoming memoir titled 'Swan Song: Diana, My Sister', expected to be published next week, discusses the emotional days following Princess Diana's death at the age of 36 in a car crash in Paris in 1997.

An excerpt published on Wednesday claims there was a tense dialogue between the then-Prince Charles and Spencer over Prince William and Prince Harry walking behind the coffin in their mother's funeral procession.

The Phone Call Argument

Spencer claims that during the argument, which he states took place over the phone, Charles angrily used the expression, 'Make no mistake, we'll forget about her soon.'

Response from Buckingham Palace

Following the claims, Buckingham Palace released a statement denying these rumors and suggesting that the grieving process may have affected Charles Spencer's memory.
