Paul Burrell makes shocking assumptions on the Sussexes' future together

For over 10 years and until her death in 1997, Paul Burrell was Princess Diana's butler, but also her closest confidant. He remained loyal to her even after her death. The Daily Mail recently revealed that the Princess' two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, wanted to chat with Mr Burrell about their late mother's last days.

As a close friend of the late princess, Paul Burrell saw the two princes grow up, and he has probably been the keeper of many family secrets. He has recently spoken to Dan Wootton from GB News about the future of Prince Harry and Meghan's couple, and he made some serious assumptions.

Paul Burrell has expressed his distrust of Meghan Markle in the past

In an interview with GB News, the 64-year-old ex-butler expressed his distrust towards Meghan Markle, something he has not tried to hide in the past. For example, he has recently said that Princess Diana would be 'appalled' if she saw the comparisons Prince Harry and his wife made between her deadly car crash and their own wanna-be 'near catastrophic' car chase, according to Metro.

The Daily Record reports that Paul Burrell apparently wonders if he is the only one in Great Britain who hopes Prince Harry has 'finally' opened his eyes about who his wife really is.

Am I the only person in the UK that is thinking, 'Has Harry finally woken up to the truth?

Burrell's words against Meghan Markle are very strong, which can remind us of another British columnist, Jeremy Clarkson, who had to publicly apologize for his own violence against the Duchess of Sussex. Princess Diana's former butler clearly attacks Prince Harry's wife, saying he is probably blinded by her beauty.

Has he finally seen the truth of what his wife is doing and that he's been brainwashed and mesmerised by her beauty or something, because we all know that but he doesn't seem to see it.

According to the Daily Record, Burrell later highlights how well he knows Prince Harry personally, although the two men are said not to have seen each other for years, following the Princess' death in 1997. According to GB News, Princess Diana's former butler had not seen her sons since they were 12 and 15.

Paul Burrell believes Harry will return to the UK

Despite not having seen the Princes for so long, Paul Burrell does seem to a whole lot opinions on the ongoing matters of the Royal Family. In the same interview, he hinted that Prince Harry and Meghan's split will happen eventually - but for now it's the kids that are keeping Harry put. He said:

I think this element from splitting from his family right now is a little premature. I think he would want to stay in that driving seat to watch his children grow because if he left this relationship now, he would lose his children because she'd keep them in America.

He continues:

I have no doubt that when this [ the divorce]happens, because we all know that it will happen, when it does happen then he will return to the United Kingdom and I think his father, the King, and his brother, the Prince of Wales will both greet him back into the country with open arms.

Paul Burrell also explains that he believes the British public will always love Prince Harry, no matter how much he might have hurt his home country.

There is an element of Harry we all love, we just don't understand why he's doing what he's doing at the moment.

Recently, Prince Harry and Meghan's relationship has been under scrutiny, especially after The Sun revealed Prince Harry allegedly rents a hotel room in Montecito, close to the couple's £12m mansion. This supposed revelation has fueled unfounded rumours that the couple is going through a major relationship crisis.

It is important to note that the rumours have never been addressed officially and no one knows what is going on for sure except the couple itself.
