An unreleased book by Charles Spencer, 9th Earl Spencer, was taken in the Netherlands. The book reportedly claims that King Charles said the words "we'll forget her soon enough" days after Princess Diana died. Buckingham Palace issued an unusual public statement, reported as blistering, rejecting the claim. The theft and the King's statement have renewed attention on Spencer's account. Spencer is the late princess's brother. He wrote the book centred on his sister's life. The book was still unpublished. Police in the Netherlands have not provided specifics. The palace has offered no additional response. The reported quote has drawn attention after the theft. The claim was dismissed by the palace. The manuscript has not been found.
