Princess Diana's brother goes on theatre date with Norwegian archaeologist Cat Jarman - after revealing 'immensely sad' divorce from third wife who he met on blind date

Charles Spencer and fellow podcast host Cat Jarman appeared relaxed in each other's company during a theatre date.

The Mail on Sunday last weekend revealed how Princess Diana's younger brother was divorcing the Countess Spencer, and had grown close to Dr Jarman, a Norwegian archaeologist.

Earl Spencer, 60, was last week pictured walking with Dr Jarman to the Prince of Wales Theatre in London, where they watched a performance of the hit musical comedy The Book Of Mormon.

'They looked into each other's eyes and there seemed to be a strong attraction,' one onlooker said. 'They were both laughing as they walked to the theatre and he didn't use his VIP status to beat the long queue.'

Dr Jarman, 42, who is separated from her husband, has also been helping Earl Spencer unearth a Roman villa in Althorp, the Spencer family estate in Northamptonshire.

Viking expert Dr Jarman completed a PhD at the University of Bristol in 2017. She was recently named Nordic Person of the Year by the Confederation of Scandinavian Societies.

Last weekend Earl Spencer revealed the 'immensely sad' news that he and his third wife Karen Gordon, 52, a Canadian philanthropist, were divorcing.

The pair married in 2011 but their relationship is understood to have broken down amid the strain of him writing his harrowing memoir, A Very Private School, which details the abuse he suffered at boarding school.

His wife was absent from his book launch events at Althorp and Spencer House in London in March, while Dr Jarman praised his 'beautifully written' memoir on social media.

He's reportedly hired divorce lawyer Baroness Shackleton of Belgravia, known as the 'steel magnolia', to represent him.
