Synopsis:
The untold story behind one of the most sensational chapters in the history of the House of Windsor. Paul Burrell fought to clear his name. Now he reveals startling new truths about Diana, Princess of Wales - and presents for the first time as faithful an account of her thoughts as we can ever hope to read.
He was the favourite footman who formed a unique relationship with the Queen. He was the butler whom the Princess of Wales called ’my rock’ and ”the only man I can trust’. He was accused of theft, then acquitted following the historic intervention of the monarch. He was the princess’s most intimate confidant - and is the only person able to separate the myth from the truth of the Diana years.
Now, at last, Paul Burrell cuts through the gossip and the lies and takes us closer to the complex heart of the Royal Family than ever before.
It’s the story of how a boy from a coal-mining village came to swap terraced streets for gilded palaces. It’s a story of shocking secrets, absolute power and unlikely alliances, told through firsthand insights and astounding material, including previously unseen letters and photographs. It’s a story that will rewrite history and stand alone as the archive of Diana’s time as a royal. It is a moving tribute from a faithful subject to the two remarkable women he served.
