Five bombshell extracts from Earl Spencer's new Princess Diana book

Earl Spencer's memoir "Swan Song: Diana, My Sister" hit shelves today, alleging King Charles sounded "giddily elated" on a call three days after Diana's 1997 death, said "you're so lucky" when Spencer's father died, and told Spencer the family would "forget her soon enough." Spencer also recounts Diana telling him Mohamed Al-Fayed grabbed her buttocks early in her romance with Dodi. Buckingham Palace has denied the claims, and Piers Morgan is threatening to sue.
