Charles Spencer addresses conspiracy stories of Diana’s death 29 years later

Over 29 years after Diana passed, as a result of a collision insider a Parisian tunnel on her way back from an event, her brother has finally come forward to address how the conspiracy stories worked.

He broke it all down while chatting with People magazine, and this conversation comes just a day before his book Swan Song is said to release.

In his admission he got pretty candid right off the bat and said, “I’ve never believed in the conspiracy theory,” and the reason is because “if somebody was conspiring to kill somebody very high profile like that, I don’t think that would be the manner that it would happen in,” he admitted.

“First of all, nobody planned for Diana to go through that tunnel that night . . . The fact that it ended up tragically being a car crash, I think, is purely a coincidence.”

Moreover, he also laid down the law as her brother and admitted, “by the way, if I thought otherwise, I would say so. I just don’t see it.”
