On Sunday, Prince William's maternal uncle spoke to the BBC regarding speculation about Kate's whereabouts. In the interview, Spencer compared the recent "online kind of conspiracy" to the "press intrusion" his late sister was subjected to before her death in August 1997.
"I think it was more dangerous back in the day," Diana's brother said.
Princess Diana died in a fatal car crash in Paris while being chased by the paparazzi following her divorce from King Charles III.
"If I look back to ’97 and Diana’s death, I think that was so shocking, the circumstance of her death was so shocking, that it did make the industry that supports the paparazzi really consider more carefully what it could and couldn’t do," Spencer continued.
"Not because they had a moral judgment, but because it was unacceptable to the public."
Spencer said 'press intrusion' was 'more dangerous back in the day.'
