Princess Diana’s brother Charles Spencer seemingly took a sigh of relief as his former wife Karen Spencer and current partner Catrine Jarman settled a lawsuit that Jarman brought against the Countess.
According to a report by the PEOPLE, Karen Spencer and Dr. Jarman have settled an ongoing lawsuit involving an alleged misuse of private information
The spokesperson for Karen has confirmed, "Countess Spencer considers her position to have been fully vindicated"
She accepted an offer to bring the litigation to an end "without admission of unlawful conduct."
The statement issued by Karen spokesperson says, "Countess Spencer confirms that the legal proceedings brought against her by Cat Jarman have been resolved in an agreed settlement. Countess Spencer considers her position to have been fully vindicated.
"There was no admission of liability or wrongdoing, and Earl Spencer has been ordered to pay the legal costs, which are expected to be in excess of £2m [$2.6 million] together with £4,500 [$5,997] in damages to be paid to his girlfriend Cat Jarman.
"Countess Spencer sincerely hopes this will mark the end of the matter."
Last year in June, Charles Spencer announced that he and Karen, a Canadian philanthropist, were divorcing after 13 years of marriage.
They share a daughter, 13-year-old Charlotte Diana.
He also confirmed his romance with Jarman in October 2024, telling The Times, "We are close."
He met Jarman when she came to Althorp House, the Spencer family's ancestral home in Northamptonshire, England, for an archeological dig in 2021.
Jarman and Spencer later teamed up to create The Rabbit Hole Detectives history podcast with Rev. Richard Coles in 2023, collaborating professionally.
