Perfect for you if...

You're fascinated by the royal family and want insider stories that go beyond tabloid headlines.
You read A Royal Duty or followed the Diana scandal and want to hear Burrell's full account now that the Queen has passed.
You enjoy intimate memoirs that blend personal struggle with historical significance, not just celebrity gossip.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer royal biographies written by journalists rather than first-hand accounts that might feel subjective.
You're looking for a scandal-heavy tell-all and don't care about the author's emotional journey or spiritual reflections.
You've moved on from Diana coverage and find ongoing discussions of her marriage breakdown exhausting.

About this book

Paul Burrell served the Royal Family for over two decades, first as footman to Queen Elizabeth II, then as butler to King Charles III when he was Prince of Wales, and as a confidante of Princess Diana. He now shares his account of those years and the events that followed. Burrell's previous memoir, A Royal Duty, focused on his friendship with Diana and sold over two million copies. He felt unable to tell his full story until after the Queen's death and the start of a new royal era. This memoir includes untold stories from his time with the Royals at home and abroad, recounting moments with the Queen, who mentored him when he joined palace life at eighteen. Burrell discusses the tensions of those years, including the breakdown of Charles and Diana's marriage and his complex relationships with Princes William and Harry. He also reflects on the loss of three significant women in his life—the Queen, Diana, and his wife Maria—alongside his personal struggles, including a battle with prostate cancer, as he navigated his own journey toward happiness.
