Spencer’s book reportedly discusses Charles’s behavior in the days after Diana’s death in 1997. According to the Daily Mail, which is publishing extracts, Spencer alleges that Charles told him: “Rest assured, we’ll forget her soon enough.”
Charles responded through a spokesperson, who suggested that personal grievances can affect a person’s reason, judgment and memory.
The exchange has drawn attention to Spencer’s account, but the reported remark remains his allegation.
