EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Lady Antonia Fraser calls on King Charles to allow DNA testing of bones in Westminster Abbey which could be those of the princes in the Tower – Edward V and his brother Richard
But will he now show that no matter how intense his reverence for her, he will rule in his own distinctive style – even if that means taking steps that Queen Elizabeth thought unthinkable?
I ask this because acclaimed historian Lady Antonia Fraser has called on the King to do something the late Queen would never approve: approve DNA testing of the bones in Westminster Abbey, which may or may not be those of ‘the Princes in the Tower’ may be, Edward V and his younger brother, Richard.
It has long been believed that they were murdered in 1483 on the orders of their uncle, the Duke of Gloucester, later Richard III.
Lady Antonia, who has won numerous literary prizes since publishing her first book – about King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table almost seventy years ago – says she never managed to put the proposal before the king while he was Prince of Wales.
