Watch: Earl Spencer says he is telling the truth about a phone call with Charles after Diana's death

Watch: Diana's brother says Charles 'went ballistic' in phone call after her death Princess Diana's brother said King Charles "went ballistic" during a phone call with him in the days after his sister's death. Earl Spencer spoke exclusively with the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg about claims he has made in a new book, alleging the then-Prince of Wales said "we'll forget her soon enough" during an argument over whether Princes William and Harry should walk in Diana's funeral procession. In a strongly-worded response to the book claims, Buckingham Palace said the King was "mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgement and colour memory in ways others do not recognise, even many years after such a loss".
