Princess Diana’s ‘Explosive’ Memoir Copies Stolen Ahead of Release
Dutch police are investigating the theft of four advance copies as publishers keep the memoir under tight security before its Sept. 22 release.
- Thieves stole four copies of Earl Spencer's forthcoming memoir, Swan Song, from a truck in the Netherlands earlier this week, though the book remains scheduled for release through Penguin Michael Joseph and Penguin Press on September 22.
- Charles Spencer wrote the memoir to share his perspective on Princess Diana, stating, "The aim of this book is to tell the truth about Diana from her brother's perspective, just as I attempted to do when speaking at her funeral."
- Describing the work as his most personal of ten books, Spencer recorded the audiobook himself, writing, "At heart, this is a brother's simple tribute to an extraordinary sister."
- Dutch police are investigating the theft, which publishers treat as a major security breach given strict measures taken to prevent leaks before the memoir appears in 12 languages across hardcover, ebook, and audiobook editions.
- As the family approaches the 30th anniversary of Princess Diana's death in 2027, Spencer wrote the book to correct long-standing untruths, believing she would have "approved of every word.
