Earl Spencer has rejected Meghan Markle’s request regarding Althorp House, stating firmly that the estate belongs to his son.
Meghan had expressed interest in the historic family home, which holds significant sentimental value and history as the Spencer family residence and the final resting place of Princess Diana.
However, Earl Spencer, Diana’s brother, emphasized that Althorp House is intended for his son, Louis Spencer, Viscount Althorp, as part of the family’s legacy.
This decision underscores the Earl’s commitment to preserving the estate within the direct line of succession, ensuring its heritage and history remain intact for future generations.
The rejection has drawn attention to the complexities of managing historic family properties and the responsibilities tied to aristocratic traditions.
