Key Points:

- Spencer opposes the decision to have Princes William and Harry walk in Diana's funeral procession, accusing King Charles III of showing "contempt" for Diana.
- Buckingham Palace responded by suggesting Spencer's grief may have affected his memory and judgment, without directly disputing his claims.
- The royal family continues to face public scrutiny over their handling of Diana's death, a controversy that has persisted for nearly 30 years.
- The timing of these claims adds pressure on the royal family, already dealing with King Charles's cancer treatment and Princess Catherine's recovery.
