Earl Charles Spencer’s upcoming memoir Swan Song: Diana, My Sister has landed like a grenade in the middle of the already fractured British royal family, and the fallout is still settling. On this episode of The Megyn Kelly Show, Kelly and journalist Maureen Callahan dissect the book’s most explosive allegations, the motives behind them, and the broader spectacle of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s ongoing campaign for relevance. The conversation also branches into a sharp critique of the self-help industrial complex—personified by Oprah Winfrey and Mel Robbins—and a skeptical look at Lena Dunham’s recent foray into motherhood via surrogacy. The throughline is a sustained argument about the gap between curated public narratives and messy private realities, whether in palaces, on talk shows, or in the pages of Vogue.
