King Charles vs Earl Spencer Over Diana: 'Gaslit by the King', Palace Breaks No-Books Rule, Harry Says Nothing, Kate with Tom Cruise
M
4:02Mark FrancisHOST
An offer Spencer declined because, as he put it, "What was the point now? Diana was dead." There is more, and some of it is incendiary.
M
4:12Mark FrancisHOST
Spencer claims Diana told him before the marriage even began that Charles had informed her he was not in love with her, and later that, "My husband is in love with his valet." A single line that received a decades old, long denied rumor about Charles' relationship with his aide, Michael Fawcett, which the King has never dignified with a response and which remains entirely unproven.
M
4:33Mark FrancisHOST
He alleges that the late Mohammed Al-Fayed once groped Diana.
M
4:37Mark FrancisHOST
It is, in other words, a book full of grenades lobbed by a grieving brother nearly 30 years after the fact.

She wanted the Fawcett problem contained.

Michael Fawcett.

Now that brings us to the Pete Report, which I've got a copy of and I'll leave a link for you in the description box below.
S
0:41Shauna KayHOST
Now the Pete Report highlights a real structural absurdity that the same Royal Court that generated all the scandals was tasked with investigating itself.
S
2:13Shauna KayHOST
And the Queen, whose own public brand depended on competence and moral steadiness, could no longer ignore the damage that was being done.
S
2:23Shauna KayHOST
The Pete Review was her attempt to stop the humiliation, without allowing anyone outside the palace to actually investigate.
S
2:32Shauna KayHOST
The late Queen knew that Michael Fawcett had become a lightning rod in Charles's court.
S
2:38Shauna KayHOST
He was said to be abrasive, he was really feared, and yet mysteriously he remained indispensable to Charles.

the guy.
K
9:54KatieHOST
And from the segments we've seen, he didn't ask any follow-up questions, but everyone's like, oh, that's Michael Fawcett.
K
10:01KatieHOST
And Fawcett is the guy who took the blame for the cash for access scandal back in 2021.
K
10:06KatieHOST
Yeah.
K
10:53KatieHOST
So they're like, oh, yeah, he had to meet with him four years after the guy left under a huge scandal because there was a delay due to his schedule.
K
11:03KatieHOST
Like, what? They always
C
11:06ChandraHOST
compare the situation between Charles and Michael Fawcett to Prince William and Jason Knopf.
C
11:14ChandraHOST
And I'm like talking about like the structural relationship of, you know, this guy just keeps hanging around and he keeps getting jobs in Williams orbit.
Steph and Laura's 'Shameless' Rebrand
K
27:33Kate TorbaHOST
So Earl Spencer went on to allege that the reason Diana wanted to divorce Charles was because she believed he was in love with his valet.
K
27:41Kate TorbaHOST
Now, Earl Spencer didn't name the valet, but media publications are now speculating he may have been referring to the king's former principal valet, Michael Fawcett.
K
27:51Kate TorbaHOST
Now, I wanna point out these are just allegations.
K
27:54Kate TorbaHOST
But what's really interesting is it's not the first time questions have been raised over Fawcett and Charles's close relationship.

Your Royal Briefing for September 23rd
A
17:48Amanda MattaHOST
The other major bombshell that was released ahead of time, ahead of publication, was that Diana reportedly told her brother that her husband was in love with his valet after she revealed to Earl Spencer that she was going to get divorced.
A
18:05Amanda MattaHOST
Most likely, people have kind of speculated, based on the time period, this would have been in reference to Michael Fawcett, who was Charles's valet.
A
18:16Amanda MattaHOST
Again, I think it's very important to remember this is Earl Spencer's account of what Diana told him.
A
18:23Amanda MattaHOST
And he's been very careful in his pre-publication interviews to say, well, I'm not saying it's true.
Charles' Plot to Smear Diana After Death Exposed

49:23Phil CraigGUEST
Um, you're a massive world historical figure." Okay, I'm exaggerating, but that's what that tape shows.
P
49:28Phil CraigGUEST
Now, I can well imagine Michael Fawcett, you know, saying something similar, and other people in Charles's life.
P
49:33Phil CraigGUEST
Now, Diana never did that.
P
49:35Phil CraigGUEST
Diana was much more challenging, and therefore maybe a bit too spiky for him.
Prince Harry’s Verdict on Earl Spencer’s Explosive Diana Memoir
M
10:07Mark FrancisHOST
In a matter of eight words, writing in his new book about his tragic sister, Swan Song, the Earl has dusted off and reignited a decades-old rumor that King Charles had what amounts to a gay affair.
M
10:18Mark FrancisHOST
Speculation is the valet in the book refers to Charles' long-term aide, Michael Fawcett.
M
10:25Mark FrancisHOST
Elsa shares, "Mr.
M
10:27Mark FrancisHOST
Fawcett for decades was a key part of Charles' world.
M
11:58Mark FrancisHOST
I'm just an eyewitness to history." Morgan's response was blunt.
M
12:01Mark FrancisHOST
Writing on social media, he said, "He says having waited 30 years to launch a vengeful, resentful attack on King Charles." Friends of the King are also questioning Spencer's motives.
M
12:12Mark FrancisHOST
One particularly sharp response reportedly compared Spencer to an arsonist trying to sell you a fire hose before asking, "Why couldn't they all have just let her rest in peace? That would've been the decent thing to have done." Another unnamed aide suggested resentment of Charles and Camilla's position might have been driving the criticism.
M
12:31Mark FrancisHOST
If I were to hazard a guess, I'd say it's more than that.
Picking Sides in King Charles Vs. Charles Spencer
A
9:28Allie MerriamHOST
Nothing happened.
A
9:29Allie MerriamHOST
And as this got, like, reported or leaked out in biographies, it was kind of clear that it was an allegation made against Charles's valet, this man, Michael Fawcett.
A
9:41Allie MerriamHOST
And, you know, that's alleged.
A
9:43Allie MerriamHOST
We don't know.
A
10:30Allie MerriamHOST
But clearly that was pretty strong evidence against this man who was Charles' valet.
E
10:36Eva WalchoverHOST
And who is still around.
E
10:37Eva WalchoverHOST
He's still a name and only just recently left or is in the process of leaving, this guy Michael Fawcett.
A
10:43Allie MerriamHOST
There were HR complaints against him for bullying and clearly other things.

Yeah.

Right? Who we know, I mean, I know-

P
17:44Piers MorganHOST

P
17:45Piers MorganHOST
It was a male valet.
P
17:47Piers MorganHOST
It's all- From my knowledge, absolute bullshit again.
