Paul Burrell speaks on Prince Harry memoir
Paul told Lorraine: “I was bewildered by it because he’s known me all his life as Paul. He knew what I did for his mother; he knew how much I loved her and protect her memory. He knows all of that.
“Why did he call me ‘mummy’s butler’? Why couldn’t he have asked or come to me personally and said he wasn’t happy with the situation.”
I was bewildered by it because he’s known me all his life as Paul.
He continued: “I’ve always defended him down to the last minute and now I’m thinking, ‘Harry, you’ve lost the plot’. What’s happened? There’s been a shift in that young man that I know so well and he’s changed. I don’t know the answer to that question. I’m saddened by it.”
In addition, he went on to say: “Harry comes from a very privileged world and he’s forgotten loyalty, duty, respect to his country, to the people of our country and to his family. I’m sorry about that but that’s his doing.”
