Charles Spencer's memoir "Swan Song: Diana My Sister" hits shelves today. And Piers Morgan is already threatening to sue over what he calls "bulls***" claims in the book, Deadline reports. Spencer's press blitz has only escalated matters: he claims then-Prince Charles sounded "giddy" on a phone call the day Diana died.

The book has dominated UK headlines for days, and the palace is not amused. Sources tell Vanity Fair the wider royal family feels "hurt, frustration, and deep disappointment," with an "incredibly hurt" King Charles staying calm in public. Morgan's lawyers are circling. Spencer is working the US interview circuit. This saga -- trust us -- is nowhere near its final chapter.
