Paul Burrell has prostate cancer and is now afraid he will take Princess Diana’s secrets to his grave. That’s why her ex-butler now wants to entrust her to Prince William and Prince Harry.

What does Paul Burrell, Princess Diana’s ex-butler, †36, really know? According to his own statements, he knows a number of secrets about the late mother of Prince Harry, 38, and Prince William, 40, which he does not want to take to the grave. The former servant of the monarchy, who is suffering from prostate cancer, blurted this out in an interview with the British newspaper “Daily Mirror”.

“I know some of it isn’t pretty, but if I leave this place and go somewhere else, they’ll never know. I think they should know,” Burrell told the Daily Mirror. He thinks Diana would say to him, “Paul, you have to make this a priority. You have to go and see my boys.”

Ex-butler made cancer public on TV

At the end of January, Diana’s ex-butler made his prostate cancer public, according to the “Daily Mail” on the British breakfast show “Lorraine”. In the summer he had a comprehensive medical examination for a television show and then got the terrible accidental diagnosis. He is worried about the future, saying: “I was wrapping Christmas presents and I was like, ‘Will I still be here next Christmas?'”

Harry accuses Burrell of profiting from Diana’s death

Harry may not be thrilled with Paul Burrell’s latest comments. In his memoirs “Spare” he accused his mother’s ex-butler of profiting from her death, because: After Diana’s death, Burrell published two investigative novels with private details about Lady Di.

He himself represented himself in the works as her confidant, but the real meaning is disputed. When Burrell heard about Harry’s allegations, he burst into tears, as he said in an interview with “The Sun”.
