Local ladies invited to meet Earl of Spencer


Five ladies from Bibb County were invited to meet the late Princess Diana’s brother, the ninth Earl of Spencer Charles Spencer, who was in Birmingham promoting a line of furniture.

Betty White, Jean Goodson, Charles Spencer, Lane Patridge, Emily Hornsby, and Bernice Stacy traveled to Birmingham Wholesale Furniture to meet Spencer and preview the items from the furniture collection. The line of furniture will feature reproductions of furnishings from his family’s 501 year-old home, Althorpe Estate in England.

Spencer is promoting the furniture to raise money for the renovation of the estate. His family has occupied the Althorpe Estate for 19 generations and is the final resting place of Princess Diana.
