Princess Diana’s Brother Charles Spencer Shares Heartfelt Statement Amid Reports of William and Harry Feud
Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer, has broken his silence and shared intimate details about his life amid ongoing reports of a feud between Prince William and Prince Harry. The 60-year-old Earl Spencer, known for his support of Meghan and Harry in the past, took to social media to publicly express his admiration for his new partner, Cat Jarman, as he navigates divorce proceedings from his third wife, Karen Spencer.
In a rare and heartfelt post on X (formerly Twitter), Spencer wrote, “I’m deeply proud of, and impressed by, my partner @CatJarman for her support of the MS Society.” He went on to highlight Jarman’s advocacy work, stating, “She is an example of how successful and fulfilled people with this condition can be, and I know her support of this charity will be hugely beneficial to so many.”
Spencer didn’t stop there, lavishing praise on his new partner by adding, “Cat is a passionate advocate of good causes, and this is just one more example of her selflessness and her determination to assist others.”
Charles Spencer and Cat Jarman first met in 2021 and quickly bonded over their shared interests. The pair became co-hosts of a history podcast titled The Rabbit Hole Detectives, alongside Rev. Richard Coles. Their professional collaboration eventually blossomed into a romantic relationship, which Spencer confirmed during an appearance on Good Morning Britain in October 2024, referring to Jarman as his “partner.”
This public declaration of admiration comes at a time when Spencer is navigating a highly publicized divorce from his third wife, Karen Spencer. The couple, who married in 2011, announced their separation in 2023, marking the end of a 12-year marriage.
Spencer’s statement also arrives amid ongoing speculation about the strained relationship between his nephews, Prince William and Prince Harry. The brothers have been at odds for years, with their feud intensifying after Harry and Meghan stepped back from royal duties in 2020. While Charles Spencer has previously shown support for Harry and Meghan’s decisions, his recent focus on his personal life suggests he may be stepping back from the royal drama.
Cat Jarman, an archaeologist and author, has been a vocal advocate for multiple charitable causes, including the MS Society. Her work and dedication to philanthropy have clearly resonated with Spencer, who has openly praised her commitment to making a difference.
As Spencer continues to navigate his personal life and support his partner, his statement serves as a reminder of his commitment to positivity and advocacy. While the royal family’s internal tensions remain a topic of public fascination, Spencer’s focus on his relationship and charitable endeavors highlights a new chapter in his life—one centered on love, support, and giving back.
