Paul Burrell, former footman to the late Queen Elizabeth II and trusted confidante of Princess Diana, pulls back the curtain on the British Royal family. From Camilla and Charles ‘causing great pain’ and ‘collateral damage' , to Prince Harry ‘going feral’ and Meghan Markle’s ambitions, nothing is off-limits. He reveals what really happened behind Buckingham Palace's doors, how Princess Diana’s spirit visited him in the jungle on I’m A Celebrity, and why he believes King Charles is just a ‘caretaker’ while Prince William is destined to be the ‘People’s King’. He opens up about his personal life, discussing his first marriage to Prince Philip’s maid, Maria, and falling in love with his current husband after a ’sliding doors’ moment on a train. No topic is off-limits as Paul shares his experience at the heart of the Monarchy.
