“Princess Diana’s Ex-Butler Reveals Shocking Secrets Behind Harry and Meghan’s Love Story!”
In 2008, an investigation went underway regarding letters penned by Princess Diana and others. Burrell was being questioned about duplicating the correspondence. He didn’t deny the fact, saying the letters were of “historical importance.”
Burrell Threw The World A Curveball In 2016
The legal aspects were only the start to Paul Burrell’s time in the limelight, though. In 2016, it was revealed that Burrell and his wife of 32 years were separating. Later that year, it was announced that Burrell and his male partner, Graham Cooper, were walking down the aisle.
Of course, the former butler walking down the aisle with a male partner stirred more than one news source, and the interviews started to flood in.
Princess Diana “Knew”
During an interview with OK! magazine, Paul Burrell discussed his relationship with Princess Diana, namely if he told her about his partner preference. Apparently, he did not.
“Diana and I never discussed my sexuality at length, but it was a known thing between us,” Burrell said, adding, “Let’s face it: I did great flower arrangements, chose her outfits, and gave her advice. All the clues were there, and she was a clever lady.”
Books, Television Shows, And The Spotlight
It’s safe to say Burrell doesn’t entirely hate the spotlight, though. In the time since he’s left the royal household, the former butler has penned several books illustrating his time working at Buckingham and for the royal family, particularly as Diana’s right-hand man.
