Video Description

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 out of bounds as Paul shares his experience at the heart of the Monarchy. 00:00 Welcome to former Royal Butler Paul Burrell 01:09 Culture Clash: Prince Harry Going 'Feral' 02:20 How Prince Harry Threw King Charles, Prince William, Princess Kate 'under the bus' 03:50 Why Prince Harry should 'stop meddling' with Royal Life 04:48 On Meghan 'paving the way' for Archie and Lilibet 05:25 Why Harry Should 'Stay Away' from the Royal Family 06:50 What Happened When William And Harry Invited Paul To Kensington Palace 08:42 How the late Queen Elizabeth taught Prince William The Art Of Monarchy 09:25 Being A Grandad And What Life Is Really About 10:10 How Queen Elizabeth Encouraged Paul To Marry 10:30 Forged In Sorrow: The Death Of Princess Diana And The 'Distortion Of HIstory' 12:18 Meeting His Wife Maria At Buckingham Palace 13:41 Diana's Death Sent Paul To A Dark Place 15:08 Strangers On A Train - Meeting His Husband In A 'Sliding Doors' Moment 17:40 Exploring HIs Sexuality And A Club Called 'Bang' 19:22 Being In Touch With Diana's Spirit And How She Visited Him On I'm A Celebrity 21:03 Royal Rifts And The Falling Out Between Diana And Prince Andrew's ex, Fergie 22:33 How Charles And Camilla Caused Great Pain 23:06 Why Paul Can't Wait For William To Be King 23:40 Honesty Box 24:55 The Future For The Monarchy - Why Charles Is Just A 'Caretaker King'. 26:51 Destiny Awaits: William And Kate, The Modern Royals Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bestmagazine/?locale=en_GB Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bestmagofficial/?hl=en Twitter/X: https://x.com/bestmagofficial?lang=en BEST talks to smarter, sharper women.
