After Prince Philips’ funeral ended, Princess Diana’s brother Charles Spencer spoke up. That was how he felt about the ceremony.

A funeral service for Prince Philip (1921-2021) was held on the grounds of Windsor Castle on Saturday afternoon (April 17th). Shortly after the service was over, Charles Spencer (56, “Althorp: The Story of an English House”), the brother of Princess Diana (1961-1997), who died in 1997, called in on Twitter to speak.

“My goodness. What an amazingly moving ceremony,” wrote the 56-year-old on the social media platform. He himself was not present at the memorial service, which had to be limited to 30 guests due to the corona pandemic. In addition to Queen Elizabeth II (94), close family members were almost exclusively present, including Prince Charles (72), Prince William (38) and Prince Harry (36).
