Karen took to Instagram to make the announcement, writing: "Exciting news from Althorp! I’m going to be sharing my experience as lady of the house in a whole new way, with a weekly video every Friday that will give you a peek into the projects I care so much about. We’ve been filming behind the scenes for some time now, and I think it’s time to let you all in!

Karen Spencer is filming a new online video series 

"Here’s our first episode with a taste of what’s to come. I hope these videos will be a revealing and informative way to share with you the incredible history we’re lucky enough to have here, as my husband and I work to leave this place in as good a state as it has ever been.

In the video clip, Karen admitted she didn't at first realise how much of a full-time job the upkeep of the house would be. "Every day holds a new adventure," she said, as she rummaged through the house's belongings. She also heralded Charles' "ability to tell the history of the family" and added that it's a "privilege to be part of the 500 year story".
