Something worse threatens to follow Earl Spencer, and the issues are getting bigger than ever thought before.
For those unversed with the issue itself, it involves defamatory claims made regarding the chain of management when The Sunday Mirror leaked hidden-camera pictures of the princess, on November 7, 1993.
Moreover, when it comes to the contents of said image, it showed Diana wearing a leotard and cycling shorts while working out and were taken secretly by the owner of a gym in LA. But a source in the publishing world warns “this has become much bigger than Piers.”
According to the Naughty but Nice Substack, “the question everyone is asking is: Who fact-checked this? At best, this is deeply embarrassing. At worst, it could become a legal nightmare.”
After all, “once one significant claim is challenged, you cannot simply assume everything else is fine. Every major allegation now has to be looked at again, line by line.”
While an apology has already been made, Mr Morgan still intends on continuing with the suit, with proceeds intending to go to the King’s Trust.
As for what his publisher’s planning to deal with this, the insider explained the gameplan and noted that the first edition is to be pulled immediately, a second one made, and great detail is also being given to things like disclaimers are needed.
Near the end the celebrity news reporter also quoted the source as saying, “nobody wants to pull a book from shelves or online, but that possibility has to be discussed if serious problems are uncovered. The terrifying question now is: What else might need correcting?”
