What explosive claim does Piers Morgan make about Earl Spencer’s new book?

Charles Spencer 0:00
I'm not a vengeful, resentful person. I'm just an eyewitness to history.
Piers Morgan 0:05
We now know, purely from what he's written about me, that he's telling lies in the book. Period. That's a
Unknown 0:10
typo. It's a date out of the street. It's not a typo.
Piers Morgan 0:13
It's a long attack on me based on an entirely false premise.
Katie Nicholl 0:17
It casts a lack of credibility over everything else that he's written. These are basic facts that could help.
Unknown 0:23
Been checked. To put your interpretation on it in that way, in with that hysterical level of hyperbole, that to me undermines any credibility.
Grant Harrold 0:31
I don't believe him. It was like a nucleus straight at the heart of the monarchy
Tom Bower 0:34
because it's almost he wants to destroy it. I really don't think anyone cares about Spencer. I think Spencer is irrelevant. Money grabbing salacious rubbish.
Tessa Dunlop 0:41
Did you just accuse somebody of writing money grabbing salacious rubbish? I I'm just gonna park that there.
Piers Morgan 0:48
Can you imagine anybody making a profit out of their brother or sister's death? asked Earl Spencer in nineteen ninety eight. It's so low, it's inconceivable. I'll never profit from Diana's death. Well, as the king himself said, grief can cloud memory and affect judgment. And so it seems can three high-profile divorces, a major privacy lawsuit, and the immense cost of maintaining a vast property empire. Like Prince Harry before him, Earl Spencer has chosen the path of profit over principle. A book which rails against the media's invasion of royal privacy has managed to invade royal privacy in the most grotesque way imaginable. Private conversations with the king. at a moment of unimaginable grief and shock, which allegedly happened almost thirty years ago, are reproduced without context or response.
Piers Morgan 1:35
The king, says Spencer, sounded giddily elated, like a lottery winner after Diana's death. And the most damaging allegation of all, that he told her brother, we will forget her soon enough. Readers, who will include Prince William and Harry, are left with the unmistakable impression that their father, our king, is a callous and uncaring ogre. Earl Spencer, in his promotional interview with Laura Kuntzberg in the BBC, preposterously claimed that he's written the book
Charles Spencer 2:03
purely as a duty to history. I have a duty, you know, as an eyewitness to history, and it's my duty in my the final season of my life. Um this was very much a spur for me to write this now, was both my parents died in their sixties. I'm in my sixties. I'm aware of mortality, and I wanted to just put things down once and for all that were true. And Part of the spine of my book is the construction of my eulogy. I know uh this is not a threat, it's a fact. I know lots of things about The King, which I chose not to include in the book because they were not relevant. I'm a historian. I've worked for decent news organisations like yourself, and it was just my duty to r lay it out. Oh
Piers Morgan 2:52
what a load of
Charles Spencer 2:53
crap.
Piers Morgan 2:54
Three times he refers to his duty as a historian. I just needed to put down the true facts, he says. Well, many allies of his majesty have called into question these facts ever since the most salacious accusations were serialized by the Daily Mail. Many royal commentators and experts have lined up to say they simply don't ring true. The king himself issued a furious rebuke that is almost without precedent. But in essence, this has always been about opinions. recollections may vary after all. Well until now, because I can exclusively reveal on Uncensored that Earl Spencer's book contains fabricated inaccuracies which will strike to the heart of his credibility. Spencer recounts how he personally called round the tabloid newspaper editors to uninvite them from Princess Dinah's funeral after they had all been invited.
Piers Morgan 3:42
I remember this well because I was one of them. He says on the book they realize they were unable to be rude to the brother of the much born princess. The only one who sounded surly as opposed to merely confused or embarrassed was Piers Morgan of the Mirror, who snarled with annoyance before he hung up. Well, Spencer then explains why I may have been surly with him.
