Charles Spencer in spotlight. - Diana's Brother Obtains Divorce
Charles Spencer, at 60 years old, is going through a separation from his wife, Karen Spencer, who is 52. The 9th Earl Spencer and younger brother of the famed late Princess Diana confessed this news to "The Mail on Sunday." He also mentioned that it's a very sad situation and he just wants to prioritize his time with his children and grandchildren while wishing Karen nothing but the best for her future.
His third marriage to Karen occurred in 2011. They tied the knot at the Spencer family's Althorp House, only two months after the high-profile wedding of Charles's nephew, Prince William, and Princess Kate. According to reports, the couple met in Los Angeles the year before their marriage. The union produced a 12-year-old daughter named Charlotte Diana, who shares the same name with the late Princess Diana, a presumable tribute.
The problems between the couple came to light while they were working on his memoir, "A Very Private School." This book was released earlier in the year. The news about their separation was recently made known to the staff of Althorp House.
Charles Spencer is the father of seven children. Karen Spencer has two older daughters from her previous marriage to Mark Gordon, a Hollywood producer, whom she was married to from 1997 to 2003. Charles Spencer has been married four times and has a total of seven children. His second wife, Caroline Freud, an aristocrat, journalist, and broadcaster, was married to him from 2001 to 2007. Spencer has so far been married for a total of 21 years, with his first marriage lasting from 1989 to 1997. He was married to Victoria Lockwood. His second marriage was also to Caroline Freud.
