‘The King is furious!’: Why Earl Spencer’s royal claims are unforgivable

In today’s special edition of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley sit down with Victoria Ward, The Telegraph’s Deputy Royal Editor, to discuss further claims we’ve learnt from Earl Spencer’s memoir, in which he claims King Charles made disparaging remarks about Diana, Princess of Wales, in the days after her death. Victoria delves into the Earl’s accusations that the King is “gaslighting” him with the Palace’s response, and how he responded to being challenged over the contents of his memoir in his BBC interview with Laura Kuenssberg. Elsewhere, before next month’s Budget, Camilla and Tim also look into reports Andy Burnham is considering raising capital gains tax to fund a £20bn handout for the lowest earners.Get your tickets to The Daily T’s On The Road Sunday Showdown between Camilla Tominey and Bridget Phillipson here: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/telegraph-events/live-events-party-conferences-2026/► Subscribe to our new Daily T YouTube channel: youtube.com/@dailytpodcast► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.
