Charles Spencer’s new book about his late sister, Princess Diana, goes on sale after searing extracts prompted a rare and sharp rebuttal from King Charles III. In ‘Swan Song: Diana, My Sister’, Spencer says he wants to speak on Diana’s behalf and correct untruths that have become accepted over time.
