About this listen

 In A Royal Duty, Paul Burrell reveals the truth about Princess Diana, as well as a faithful account of her thoughts. He was the favourite footman who formed a unique relationship with the Queen. He was the butler who 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' most intimate confidant - and may be the only person able to separate the myth from the truth of the Diana years.©2003, 2004 Paul Burrell (P)2007 W F Howes Ltd. Royalty

Wonderful

Loved this book! Thank you Paul Burrell for being there for HRH Princess Diana. Like so many others I loved her and felt so close to her.It was so nice to hear she did love Prince Charles and he her in the early years. After reading Andrew Morton's account I was devastatingly sad about Princess Diana the way they were trying to make her out as a bipolar nut. I feel you on the other hand, saw the innocence and kindness and were more understanding of her.

I came out of this with a warmness in my heart. Thank you for being there for her. I feel the other side always wanted her to take the blame. God
knows the Royals can't look bad.

I feel you were sincere and honest setting the record straight!!! And I believe you and thank you. Although you will probably never hear it
I'm sure the queen has a special place in her heart for you as well.

Regarding Prince Charles and his camp....nothing to say...or it is best I don't say it.
Long live the Queen!

I wish you and your family nothing but happines
and success!

Also thank you for the audible, as my eyesight is not the best, I would never have known the true story.

Very informative from the inside.

Well narrated by its own author which I really appreciate. I like Paul. He was treated rather unfairly by the surrounding powers that were. I found his account very interesting and informative.

Insightful

I thought this was well written and well read. More truth to who Dianna really was and how caring she really was.

yes and no

Overall the story does portray a lot of respect to Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth.
If Paul Burrell stopped there, the book would be 5 star. Even the telling of his own life experiences from a boy up to working for the royal family was an interesting story.
But what he has done now to his wife and family is a total betrayal. The support Maria gave him all through the whole ordeal shows the deepest of love.
If I knew that before I bought the book, I wouldn't have bought it.
There are several other authors that have written about Princess Diana. You may want to look at them first.
