Where does your estate end up?
Out and About: The Princess Diana Memorial Exhibition on the site of her birthplace Althorp is closed . Forever!
As the brother of the deceased Charles 9 Earl Spencer announced these days, he will reopen the park with the grave island next year, but only on the weekends. Café, souvenir shop and museum will definitely not exist anymore.
For true Princess Diana fans, this statement from the count's mouth meant a shock!
To bring in more money, the exhibits, which keep alive the memory of the Queen of Hearts, are now going to America for a year.
After that, Diana's sumptuous bridal robe, her school notebooks, her private childhood photo albums, and the lengthy condolence lists are delivered to Kensington Palace, Earl Spencer said.
He was allegedly obliged to hand over the personal estate of his sister Diana († 31 August 1997) to her sons William and Harry. Deadline is September 15, 2014, Harry's 30th birthday.
In the London press, however, insiders doubt that William and Harry actually insisted on the publication of these things. It is speculated rather that Earl Spencer made less profit with the Princess Diana Memorial Exhibition from year to year and therefore he wanted to use the former museum building otherwise.
It also becomes what the prince duo intends to do with the exhibits. Media representatives do not expect an answer so quickly. The matter will probably be declared private, it was said.
