Charles Spencer shares mysterious update on Princess Diana’s childhood home following brother-in-law’s death

Charles Spencer loves sharing updates of his famous family home, Althorp House, and on Wednesday posted a rather mysterious snap.

Taking to his official X account, the ninth Earl Spencer posted a series of photos of his team uncovering a Japanese casket at his historic abode, which he subsequently posted for eager fans to see.

Captioning the snaps, he wrote: “Update on #althorpunlocked – Lily opened an 18th-century Japanese lacquer cabinet & Ailsa unlocked an 18th-century Japanese lacquer casket-on-stand. (Nothing was found in either.) I wonder when either piece was last opened – and by whom?”

The ornate piece was certainly a sight to behold, made of mahogany with gorgeous gold floral detailing.
