Princess Diana’s youngest brother, Charles Spencer, is the father of seven children.
Spencer married Victoria Lockwood in September 1989, and the twosome welcomed daughter Kitty in 1990 followed by twin daughters Eliza and Amelia in 1992 and son Louis in 1994.
Following their divorce in December 1997, Spencer moved on with Caroline Freud, and the pair tied the knot in December 2001. The duo went on to welcome son Edmund and daughter Lara in 2003 and 2006, respectively, before they split in 2007.
In June 2011, Spencer married Karen Gordon and they welcomed daughter Charlotte Diana in July 2012. After 13 years of marriage, Spencer and Gordon revealed in June 2024 that they were splitting.
“It is immensely sad,” Spencer told The Mail on Sunday at the time. “I just want to devote myself to all my children, and to my grandchildren, and I wish Karen every happiness in the future.”

“I think [he] will be a brilliant one. You’d like him,” the friend explained in May 2021. “He’s very low-key and genuine, decent and kind, and tall.”

Charlotte Diana Spencer
Charles and Gordon’s only child, Charlotte Diana, was born in July 2012 and was named after Charles’ late sister Princess Diana.
“She’s adorable — another feisty little Spencer girl. We hadn’t settled on a first name before the birth, but Charlotte is a name we both loved, and it really suits her. We knew that as soon as we saw her,” Charles told the Daily Mail in August 2012. “And, though it’s been 15 years since Diana died, I still miss her every day, and I very much wanted her commemorated in the naming of our daughter.”
