Princess Diana<\/a>‘s brother is opening up about a side of the late royal that people rarely heard about … saying she got physical on a few occasions when pushed to the brink.<\/p>\n

Charles Spencer tells People<\/a> he can remember three times Diana lashed out physically … he says she slapped their father, John Spencer, after learning he planned to marry their future stepmother, Raine Spencer.<\/p>\n

Charles says Diana also once shoved him off his bike for seemingly no reason when they were kids … but the most explosive incident came years later, when she allegedly pushed Raine down a flight of stairs.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Diana’s brother claims the push happened in 1989, after a family rehearsal for his first wedding. According to Charles, Raine kept Diana’s mother, Frances, separated from the rest of the family … and then insulted Diana by saying she couldn’t believe Prince Charles<\/a> had married someone so stupid.<\/p>\n

Charles isn’t defending the violence, but says there was a buildup of strong emotions and Diana believed she was standing up for their mother.<\/p>\n

He says those were the only three incidents he can recall … making clear he doesn’t remember Diana regularly getting physical with people.<\/p>\n

Diana’s brother is drumming up press for his new memoir, “Swan Song: Diana, My Sister,” which drops tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Princess Diana Brother Reveals Rare Violent Side Published September 21, 2026 9:22 AM PDT Princess Diana‘s brother is…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":904445,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75],"class_list":["post-904444","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/904444","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=904444"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/904444\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/904445"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=904444"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=904444"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=904444"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
