Prince Harry is "completely fine" with the new memoir about the life of his mother, Princess Diana, his uncle Earl Spencer said.
In the book, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, Spencer made claims that King Charles said "we'll forget her soon enough" after she died and that he sounded "giddily elated" after he passing.
A Palace spokesperson told the Daily Star that the King is "mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory in ways others do not recognise."
When Spencer was questioned by People, if he informed Harry and the Prince of Wales about the memoir, he said: "I can say that Harry is completely fine about it. He said, I hope there's nothing embarrassing about him in it. I said, 'There isn't'."
"I think they were actually worried where I was going up to with the book. It pretty much ends in 1997 with Diana's death, and there's a tiny postscript by the grave. So I think there was this, 'Gosh, what's he written about?' And I think it's natural that people so in the public eye are concerned how they will come across in the book," he continued.
The book also includes allegations about Piers Morgan
The book also includes allegations against Piers Morgan regarding a newspaper’s publication of photographs showing Princess Diana in a gym. Claims the broadcaster has vigorously denied.
Speaking on his Youtube show Piers Morgan Uncensored, he said: "Spencer recounts how he personally called round the tabloid newspaper editors to uninvite them from Princess Diana’s funeral, after they had all been invited. I remember this well, because I was one of them."
Reading an extract written by Spencer, Piers said: "They realised they were unable to be rude to the brother of the much-mourned princess … The only one who sounded surly, as opposed to merely confused or embarrassed, was Piers Morgan of the Mirror, who snarled with annoyance before he hung up."
"I assumed Morgan must be feeling particular guilt because, four years earlier, he and his Sunday Mirror counterpart had published photographs taken with hidden cameras by a gym owner. They were of Diana working out in a leotard," he continued to read.
Morgan denied this and claimed that he was not working for the Mirror at the time of Diana's funeral.
"My question though is this, if Earl Spencer can be so incredibly, defamatorially wrong about such basic facts involving me, well, why should we believe anything else he puts in this book? In the meantime, Earl Spencer, you’ll be hearing, and your publishers, from my lawyers," Morgan stated.
