Earl Spencer to Publish Book on Sister Princess Diana, 'Swan Song: Diana, My Sister'
Earl Spencer is set to release a new book focused on his sister, Diana, Princess of Wales, titled Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. This publication will be available in the UK on 22 September, marking nearly three decades since her tragic passing in a car accident in Paris at the age of 36. Diana would have celebrated her 65th birthday on 1 July. Spencer, who gained recognition for his heartfelt eulogy during her 1997 funeral, criticized the media's treatment of her and characterized her as a 'dynamic character.' Motivated by numerous interview requests as the 30th anniversary of her death nears, he aims to share his truth about Diana. The book, released by Penguin Michael Joseph, promises to include 'many revelations' and honor her legacy.
