“Princess Diana’s Ex-Butler Reveals Shocking Secrets Behind Harry and Meghan’s Love Story!”
Of course, it took some time for Burrell to move up the ranks in the palace. But once he did, he became a household name.
Diana’s Personal Butler
Interestingly, it wasn’t Paul Burrell’s position as the footman to Queen Elizabeth II that made him a popular name. It was actually his second position in the royal household, as the personal butler to Princess Diana.
For a decade, Burrell was one of the Princess’ most loyal guards, making him very close with his boss. Burrell has even gone on record saying he’s “the only man [that Diana] ever trusted.”
Tabloids Love Burrell
Since leaving the royal household, Paul Burrell has become somewhat of a questionable figure, being featured in more than one tabloid. In 2001, for example, his home in the English county of Cheshire was overcome by police accusing him of theft.
Namely, Burrell was being accused of stealing artifacts from the late Princess Diana and her two sons, William and Harry. Ironically, it was the Queen herself who came to the former butler’s rescue from the law.
He Duplicated Letters
As it turned out, the Queen had asked Paul Burrell to store 310 items at his residence. Her remark was undisputed, and the charges against the former royal butler were dropped. But that wasn’t the last time Burrell had a run-in with law enforcement.
