Princess Diana’s brother Earl Spencer breaks silence after Harry and Meghan’s explosive Netflix series
PRINCESS Diana’s brother has broken his silence after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle released their bombshell Netflix show.
Earl Spencer, Harry’s uncle shared what royal fans are calling a very “apt” photo just days after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made several sensational accusations against the royal family.
In episodes four, five and six of documentary Harry & Meghan, the couple accused Charles of lying during crisis Megxit talks.
Harry, 38, also alleged his brother “screamed and shouted” at him at the Sandringham Summit after he revealed they wanted to quit the Firm.
He even said a joint statement was put out without his permission in his and his brother’s name on the same day denying a story that William had bullied him out of the royal family.
Princess Diana’s younger brother had been silent on the claims – but today posted a photo on Instagram.
It showed King Charles – whose arguments with parliament caused a civil war which led to his execution.
He wrote: “Portrait of Charles I, hanging in the Picture Gallery at @althorphouse – the king visited the house in the 1630s, as an honoured guest – at one banquet recorded as feasting on herons, peacocks, and even the humble potato (which was relatively new to England then).”
“He was also allowed to visit Althorp [the Spencer estate] several times in 1647, when being held prisoner at his palace of Holdenby – after losing the first English Civil War.
“The king’s hobbies included Bible-reading, chess, and lawn bowls, and Althorp had an excellent bowling green. Charles was executed in London, in January 1649.”
Royal fans were quick to point out that the picture and caption may have a secret meaning.
One royal fan said: “Very apt portrait and king to reflect on today.”
Another added: “You may be silent on the Netflix drama but after this post about a previous King Charles, might one dare to say you are #TeamHarry – very sagacious to stay silent but let history speak for you..”
It comes as Liz Hurley denied she is the older woman Prince Harry lost his virginity to amid claims the bombshell will be included in his memoir.
The actress, 57, laughed off the rumour she bedded the Duke of Sussex when he was just a teen.
When asked about the claims, Liz told The Times: “Not me. Not guilty. Ha!”
The Austin Powers star added: “No. Not me. Absolutely not.”
Harry is understood to be revealing his tryst with a “beautiful older woman in the countryside” in his tell-all book Spare.
In a bizarre twist, Meghan Markle previously revealed she had a huge “girl crush” on Liz and reached out to her before she met Harry.
