The Butler
Burrell’s dual role in the royal family eventually made him a household name. He worked as Princess Diana’s butler for ten years, which brought him closer to his boss when it all came to an end due to her untimely death. Burrell told us that he was “the only man [Diana] ever trusted.”
A Controversial Figure
Burrell was relieved of his duties, but he continued to make newspaper headlines and became a divisive figure. In 2001, the police launched a search in Cheshire County, England, in response to complaints. What one came to his rescue after Burrell allegedly robbed Diana, her ex-husband Charles, and her eldest son, Prince William? It’s Her Majesty on the other end of the line!
