伦敦讯 已故戴安娜王妃的兄长在其即将出版的新书中声称,时任威尔士亲王的英国国王查尔斯三世在1997年戴安娜因巴黎车祸去世后,“兴奋得飘飘然——听起来就像中了彩票大奖”。

这是戴安娜的弟弟查尔斯·斯宾塞新书《绝唱:我的姐姐戴安娜》中曝出的最新重磅指控,该书将于下周上架。

在本周日播出的《CBS周日早间新闻》采访中,斯宾塞详述了这一爆炸性指控:在他与戴安娜离婚一年后,举国还在哀悼年仅36岁的戴安娜离世之际,查尔斯却显得兴致高昂。

“显然我既不是在为谁辩解,也不是在批评谁,”他告诉CBS新闻,“我只是如实陈述这一事实。”

斯宾塞表示,他认为时任威尔士亲王的这种态度,或许是因为他终于可以毫无顾忌地追求卡米拉——也就是后来他迎娶的妻子,如今的卡米拉王后。

“我在书中就写过,这可能就是原因,没错,”他对CBS新闻说道。

就在本周早些时候,斯宾塞书中的首批指控曝光后,白金汉宫随即作出反驳。此前的指控称,查尔斯在戴安娜葬礼前几天曾告诉斯宾塞,“我们很快就会把她忘掉”。

白金汉宫在一份罕见地措辞强硬的声明中表示,尽管君主不会直接就一本书发表评论,但他“深知丧亲之痛可能会蒙蔽理智、影响判断,甚至在多年后扭曲记忆”。

CBS新闻王室撰稿人罗亚·尼卡赫周四表示,王室即将迎来“一段非常棘手的时期”,并预测斯宾塞关于查尔斯在戴安娜去世后言行的指控“只是后续系列报道的开端……我们知道还会有一些相当耸人听闻的爆料”。

“他们必须决定是逐一回应每一项指控,还是就以白金汉宫此次的首次回应作为最终定论,”身为《星期日泰晤士报》王室编辑的尼卡赫说道,“但这会将王室置于防御姿态,对国王来说将非常艰难。”

斯宾塞还在书中声称,查尔斯在1981年那场童话般的婚礼前就曾告诉戴安娜,他并不爱她,而戴安娜曾不止一次萌生过自杀的念头。

截至目前,白金汉宫尚未对斯宾塞书中的最新指控作出进一步回应。英国小报《每日邮报》正在连载该书的节选内容。

查尔斯·斯宾塞的这些指控对国王查尔斯三世乃至整个王室都极具破坏性,但周五上午,CBS新闻在白金汉宫之外采访民众时发现,许多人对君主表示同情。

“我爱戴安娜,也爱戴整个王室,”一名男子说道。

一名与母亲同行的年轻男子态度则没那么坚定,他表示自己“本来就不太喜欢国王”,但补充说,整件事在他看来“令人遗憾”。

“我的看法正好相反,”他的母亲说道,“我觉得这完全没有必要,说到底不过就是个故事而已。人们总会相信自己愿意相信的东西。但说实话,我不知道为什么非要把这件事翻来覆去地拿出来说。”

距离斯宾塞的新书上架还有五天时间,期间还可能会有更多节选内容发布,此事几乎必然会再次被频繁提起,而且很快就会发生。

Princess Diana’s brother claims Charles sounded “like a lottery winner” after she died

London — The brother of the late Princess Diana claims in his upcoming book that King Charles III, then Prince Charles, “sounded giddily elated — like a lottery winner,” right after his ex-wife died in a Paris car crash in 1997.

It is the latest bombshell allegation to emerge from “Swan Song: Diana, My Sister,” the book by Charles Spencer, Diana’s younger brother, set to hit shelves next week.

In an interview airing this weekend on “CBS Sunday Morning,” Spencer explains his explosive allegation that a year after the royal couple’s divorce, and with the nation in mourning just after Diana’s death at the age of just 36, Charles seemed upbeat.

“Obviously I’m not justifying or criticizing,” he told CBS News. “I’m just reporting that’s the fact.”

Spencer said he believed the then-Prince of Wales’ attitude could have been due to him finally feeling free to pursue Camilla, who he later married, and who is now known as Queen Camilla.

“I said in the book that that might have been it, yeah,” he told CBS News.

Buckingham Palace pushed back earlier this week after the first allegation from Spencer’s book emerged: a claim that Charles had told him days before Diana’s funeral that “[we’ll forget her soon enough].”

In a statement unusual in its force for the staid institution, the palace said that while the monarch wouldn’t comment directly on a book, he “is mindful that the pain of fraternal grief can cloud reason, affect judgement and colour memory, even many years after such a loss.”

CBS News royal contributor Royya Nikkhah said Thursday that the royal family was in for “a very tricky few days,” predicting that Spencer’s claims about what the king said after Diana died would be “just the beginning of a serialization that will go on … and we know there are going to be some pretty sensational claims.”

“They will have to decide whether or not they’re going about each and every claim, or just to make that first response we’ve heard from the palace their definitive response,” said Nikkhah, who is the royal editor for The Sunday Times newspaper. “But it’s going to put them into fight mode, and it’s going to be very difficult for the king.”

Spencer also claims Charles told Diana he didn’t love her before their fairy-tale wedding in 1981, and that Diana contemplated suicide more than once.

There has been no further response from Buckingham Palace to the latest claims from Spencer’s book, excerpts of which are being published by the Daily Mail tabloid in Britain.

The allegations from Charles Spencer are damaging for King Charles and the royal family, but speaking to people outside Buckingham Palace on Friday morning, CBS News found many who were sympathetic to the monarch.

“I love the king, and I love the royal family,” said one man.

A young man, walking with his mother, was less adamant, saying he wasn’t “big on the king anyway,” but adding that the entire episode, to him, seemed “a shame.”

“I’m probably the other way,” said his mother. “I probably think it’s totally unnecessary and it is just a story at the end of the day. And people are going to believe what they want to believe. But I don’t know why it has to keep getting dragged up to be honest.”

With five days to go until Spencer’s book is available, and more excerpts likely to be published in the interim, it is virtually guaranteed to be dragged up again, and soon.
