Ex-royal butler’s brutal 10-word verdict on what Prince Harry’s really like
An ex-royal butler has described Prince Harry as being “difficult” to work with, as he talks about his experience working with the royal.
Commenting on the scathing article produced by Vanity Fair last month, Paul Burrell gave a brutal 10-word comment about the Duke of Sussex, saying: “I know from first-hand experience how difficult Harry can be.”
As reported by Ephraim Hardcastle in the Daily Mail, the ex-butler added: “I take this article as pretty factual.”
Prince Harry once famously described Mr Burrell as “milking” his mother, the late Princess Diana’s legacy.
Mr Burrell served as the Princess’ butler until her death in 1997, and regularly describes himself as her “best friend”.
He released a series of private revelations in his book ‘A Royal Duty’ in 2003 – which led Harry and William to release a statement accusing him of “a cold and overt betrayal”.
However, in response, Mr Burrell welcomed the suggestion of meeting with the princes to justify his book and tell them about parts of their mother’s life they had not witnessed, adding: “I’d love to give them a piece of my mind.”
