Diana's brother doubles down on scathing King Charles allegations

Well, I'm telling the truth. Princess Diana's brother doubling down in his first on-camera interview since scathing allegations in his imminent book were made public. That the then Prince Charles sounded giddily elated on the night Diana died and said later in a phone call, we'll forget her soon enough. Now under pressure to back it up. Do you have evidence that that is what he said at the time? Because to be fair, this was a time of massive shock and emotion for both of you. I told friends and family straight away, close friends and family about what had been said because it was so monstrous. And nearly 30 years after Diana died in a car crash, Charles Spencer is telling his side to everyone. It's very hard to see who the winners are. Leaving several royal experts sceptical of his motives. So this is a man who has regularly cashed in on his sister's legacy and is continuing to do so. In a statement last week, Buckingham Palace said His Majesty is mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory in ways others do not recognise. Still, Spencer is adamant, now also drawing parallels to his nephew. Comparing the press's treatment of Harry and Meghan to what happened with Diana, famously hounded by paparazzi. I do think Prince Harry has gone far beyond what his mother did in terms of actually opening himself up to criticism. Pointing to Harry's book along with the couple's famous interviews. I do think a lot of it they brought on themselves. Now, Spencer's full memoir will soon be out for public appraisal. I doubt that Earl Spencer's book is going to have much impact. But it has already stirred up a storm of controversy ahead of its Tuesday release. Leading some to speculate whether more is just ahead. Shianne Desjardins, CBC News, Toronto.
