King Charles Responds to Claim Made in Charles Spencer's New Book About Princess Diana

King Charles has responded through a palace spokesperson to claims published in an excerpt from Charles Spencer's forthcoming book Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. The book alleges that the King made a dismissive remark about Princess Diana shortly after her death in 1997. The palace statement acknowledged that grief can affect memory and judgment without directly confirming or denying the alleged exchange. The book, due for release on September 22, also touches on the debate surrounding Prince William and Prince Harry walking in their mother's funeral procession.

In a 2017 documentary called *Diana, 7 Days*, both William and Harry described the decision to walk in their mother's funeral procession as one reached collectively, with William noting that it had not been straightforward and that the family had arrived at that conclusion together; in his 2023 memoir *Spare*, Harry wrote that a number of adults had been firmly against the idea, and that Diana's brother, Charles Spencer, had raised strong objections, contending that the two boys ought not to be made to walk behind their mother's coffin.
