Charles said Diana would be forgotten'soon enough', Earl Spencer claims in book Image caption, Earl Spencer (second from the left) said he disagreed with Charles over whether William and Harry should walk in Diana's funeral procession Earl Spencer, the brother of Diana, Princess of Wales, has claimed King Charles said we'll forget her soon enough days after her death, in an extract from his upcoming memoir published by the Daily Mail. He claimed the then-Prince of Wales subjected him to a stream of anger after he insisted Diana would not have wanted Princes William and Harry, then aged 15 and 12, to have to walk in her funeral procession.
