Charles letter written days after Diana split is for sale

- BY SARAH LUMLEY

A LETTER written by a dishearten­ed Prince Charles in the days after his separation from Diana is up for sale.

In it he hopes that “perhaps they will appreciate the things I try to do after I am dead”.

He then says: “It can be pretty awful having to live through all the misinterpr­etation and the flak.” But he adds: “Perhaps it is part of the test that I have to go through in order to come out the other side, having been tempered in the fire.” The letter to interior designer and friend Dudley Poplak, is dated December 11, 1992, two days after the royal split was announced. It is expected to make up to £400 when sold on June 14 by Dominic Winter Auctioneer­s in Cirenceste­r, Glos. Four more royal items, including a letter from Diana, are being sold.
