Princess Diana: Earl Opens Up About Facing Abuse!
Charles mentioned all the innocent little details under the snap that goes back to September 1968! He wrote, “My father took this photograph of me and my sister, Princess Diana, just before he drove us to Silfield.” The lovely primary school was situated in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, with a lady named Miss Jean Lowe in charge. Moreover, Earl revealed that he was there until 1972. Then he headed off to the place mentioned in his memoir, ‘A Very Private School.’
He referred to Maidwell Hall, an all-boys boarding school Spencer attended from ages 8 to 13. Additionally, Earl’s memoir unmasks the painful memories of his time there. He disclosed having endured physical, verbal, and sexual abuse for the first time ever. Furthermore, the brother of Princess Diana revisited the harrowing five years spent at an elite institution in the English countryside. It was the very institution where vulnerable young bloods fell prey to predator adults.
Spencer recounted, “I’d always felt that I had dealt with this chapter of my life and had put it to bed.” However, hearing his classmates’ agonising tales brought back a flood of horrifying memories to Earl. He also revealed that neither Princess Diana nor her other sisters knew the horrors he faced at Maidwell. Mind you, Spencer was really close to Diana.
Diana Remained Unaware of Earl’s Ordeal
Earl expressed, “We would reconnect for the school holidays, and I don’t remember ever talking about it with Princess Diana.” The man eventually confided in his older sisters, Sarah and Jane, but never in Diana. From when I was a baby, Diana used to look after me,” Spencer recalls. Furthermore, Earl expressed fear of being judged.

It’s about vulnerability as children in any social class.” Earl remains hopeful that his memoir will help people, and so do we!
