A matron who allegedly molested Princess Diana's brother at boarding school went on to become an NHS nurse looking after patients with severe mental illness, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
She was a manager at a charity that helps alcohol, drug and gambling addicts and spent at least five years with the NHS, specialising in helping mental health patients who have a history of criminal offending. Earl Spencer, who attended Maidwell between the ages of eight and 13, described how the matron, who he did not name in the book, first 'kissed me on the lips'
A lawyer for Carr said she 'vehemently denies all allegations of any abuse being carried out by her to the Earl and any other individual whatsoever'.In a devastating extract from his memoir, exclusively published by The Mail on Sunday in March, Charles Spencer, 60, described how the matron, who he said was 19 or 20 at the time, groomed and then abused boys in their dormitory beds at night.
The shocking revelations in his book, A Very Private School, which topped the Sunday Times bestseller chart, made headlines around the world. 'She used to sleep with some boys and then she did, I guess, sexual favours to others,' he said. '... some nights she would come into your bedroom when lights were out and then with some – I don't know whether it was all of us, but I'm assuming not many of us – she would sleep with. Not the whole night – you'd have sex, basically.'
Records show she married in 1977, with her marriage certificate detailing her occupation as 'assistant matron'. She divorced in 1987 and – just as Earl Spencer outlined – married for a second time in 1989. We established that Sally Carr has one child: a 41-year-old managing director of a property investment firm.
The MoS understands that a group of Maidwell Hall pupils went to Yarlet Hall in 1975 to watch a production by boys from that school of the musical Oliver! Sally Carr accompanied the Maidwell boys on the trip, one source claimed. In an extraordinary echo of the physical abuse suffered by Earl Spencer at Maidwell Hall, at least one former pupil at Yarlet has accused her father David Carr, a keen cricketer whose brother Donald played for England and captained Derbyshire, of brutal beatings.
