Royal photographer Lord Lichfield caused controversy yesterday by branding Princess Diana "an extremely skilled manipulator with not a particularly high IQ". The Queen's cousin said: "Diana was a round peg in a square hole. She must have been madly irritating from the moment she understood the power of publicity".
The photographer made his comments in a magazine interview to promote a new exhibition of his work at the National Portrait Gallery in London, which includes shots from the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana.
The Earl added: "As I grow older, I realise the fragility of things that seemed so perfect at the time. It's so sad." Diana's supporters were shocked he would risk upsetting Princes William and Harry by publicly criticising their mum. A source close to her brother, Earl Spencer, said: "These kind of comments are not helpful."
