Charles Spencer is the youngest of the Spencer siblings. Born in 1964, three years after Princess Diana, he recently published his memoirs. The book published on March 16 is entitled
A Very Private School,
and encloses in its pages a secret of Count Spencer, that of his sexual assault by a school assistant, while he was educated at the prestigious Maidwell Hall, at the age of 11. Since the book's release, Charles Spencer has regularly published childhood memories, sometimes joyful, sometimes darker. On April 3, a photo with her sister, young Diana, was added to her Instagram page.
In the caption, the earl wrote: "My first day at school, September 1968: my father took this photo of me and my sister, Diana, just before driving us to Silfield, a very beautiful primary school in King's Lynn , Norfolk. The headmistress was Miss Jean Lowe, a warm and caring lady who loved her boys and girls. I was there until 1972, until I went to the place that I call – in my memoirs – “A very private school”.”

We see the princess, then aged 7, in her school uniform. She wears a red blazer jacket with yellow borders, as well as a patch on her heart. Round hat, gray wool socks, burgundy baby moccasins, there is no shortage of accessories. A fairly classic uniform, which appeals to Internet users, whose comments see young Diana as the portrait of Princess Charlotte. Two days later, Charles Spencer posted a group photo, this one taken at Maidwell Hall, specifying that his attacker was not included in it.
