Has made me more certain about Meghan Markle’s destructive influence than what we’re seeing unfold right now. When Paul Burrell, Princess Diana’s former butler and confidant, comes out and drops truth bombs about Prince Harry, we need to sit up and pay attention. Let me tell you something fascinating: Burrell just gave us a brutal 10-word verdict on Harry that confirms everything we’ve been saying on this channel.
“I know from firsthand experience how difficult Harry can be.” Boom. There it is. Straight from someone who actually worked with him. And you know what’s even more telling? Burrell endorsed that scathing Vanity Fair article as “pretty factual.” When someone who worked inside the palace walls is confirming these things, it speaks volumes.
Now, let’s rewind for a moment and remember who Paul Burrell is. This isn’t just any former staff member—this was Princess Diana’s trusted butler, someone she called her “rock.” He was there during Harry’s formative years, watching everything unfold behind those palace walls. So, when he speaks about Harry’s behavior, he’s not just speculating—like our favorite truth-dodger in Montecito. Isn’t it ironic how Harry attacked Burrell in that laughable memoir of his, accusing him of “milking Diana’s legacy”? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Who’s really been milking their royal connections for profit? Who’s been selling family secrets to the highest bidder? Who’s been throwing their own family under the bus for Netflix dollars? I’ll give you a hint: it’s not Paul Burrell.
Speaking of that memoir, remember how Harry and William once united to condemn Burrell’s book as a “cold and overt betrayal”? Well, well, well—look how the tables have turned. At least Burrell had the courage to offer to meet with the princes and explain himself. Meanwhile, Harry’s been lobbing grenades at his family from across the pond, hiding behind his wife’s PR machine.
And let’s talk about that PR machine for a moment, shall we? Here’s Harry in Vancouver for the Invictus Games—which, let’s be clear, is a wonderful initiative that he started before he became Meghan’s puppet. And where’s his loving wife? Oh, she showed up for the photo ops and then jetted back to California to be with their “mysterious children.” You know, the ones that nobody ever seems to see. Has anyone actually seen recent pictures of these kids? Just asking.
What really gets me is how Burrell pointed out their privileged lifestyle. He said, “Harry has always had that, and Meghan has long aspired for it.” Isn’t that just the perfect summary of what’s happened here? Harry was born into privilege but understood it came with duty—until someone came along who just wanted the privilege part. Meanwhile, look at William and Catherine. Now there’s a couple who understand what royal duty means. While Harry’s playing at being a Hollywood celebrity, William is preparing to be king. While Meghan’s running back to California after getting her photo ops, Catherine’s showing what true grace under pressure looks like—even during her current recovery. She’s handling everything with such dignity and class.
And let’s talk about how King Charles and Queen Camilla are handling all this drama with absolute class and restraint. Despite everything Harry’s thrown at them, they maintain their dignity and keep focusing on what matters: serving the people. That’s what real royalty looks like—not this California circus act we’re being subjected to.
You know what’s really telling? Harry’s now 40 years old—the same age his father was when he was already deeply involved in meaningful charitable work, environmental causes, and preparing for his future role. What’s Harry doing at 40? Running around trying to stay relevant, trapped in what looks increasingly like a gilded cage in Montecito. The contrast between the two brothers couldn’t be more stark. William’s got Catherine—a true partner who understands the meaning of service and duty, someone who’s grown into her role with grace and dignity. And Harry? Well, he’s got someone who saw the British monarchy as a stepping stone to Hollywood fame, someone who couldn’t handle the protocol, the tradition, the actual work that comes with being a royal.
Burrell’s revelations really confirm what we’ve all been seeing, don’t they? The Harry we see today is not the same person who served his country with pride, who started the Invictus Games from a place of genuine compassion. He’s become exactly what Trump called him: “whipped.” And isn’t it sad? This is Diana’s son we’re talking about.
The truth is, Harry’s difficulty isn’t new—but it’s been amplified a thousandfold since he fell under Meghan’s influence. Remember how close he and William used to be? Remember those boys walking behind their mother’s coffin? That bond seemed unbreakable—until someone came along and decided that bond was less important than Hollywood dreams and Netflix deals. And now look at him: he’s basically nobody in America. Just another celebrity wannabe, but without the actual talent or career to back it up. His only claim to fame is being royal—which is ironic, considering how much he and his wife claim to hate the institution. They want all the perks of royalty with none of the responsibility.
The Invictus Games are really the perfect example of this whole situation. It’s Harry’s best achievement—something he created when he was still a working royal, when he still understood his duty. Now, it’s become just another photo opportunity for Meghan to sweep in, steal the spotlight, and then disappear back to their mansion.
You know what really strikes me about Burrell’s comments? The way he welcomed the chance to meet with the princes and give them a piece of his mind. That’s someone who’s confident in their truth, who’s ready to face the consequences of their actions. Compare that to Harry and Meghan, who only tell their truth through carefully controlled interviews and Netflix documentaries—where nobody can question their version of events.
And let’s talk about these “mysterious children” for a moment. Isn’t it strange how Meghan rushed back to California to be with them, yet we barely ever see them? Remember when William and Catherine’s children were young? Yes, they protected their privacy, but we still saw them at appropriate royal events, still got those lovely birthday photos. But Archie and Lilibet? They’re like ghost children. Are they even real? I’m just asking the questions we’re all thinking.
The timing of all this is just perfect, isn’t it? Just as Harry’s trying to make himself relevant again with the Invictus Games, we get these revelations from someone who actually knew him, who worked with him, who saw behind the palace walls. And what do they tell us? Exactly what we’ve been saying all along: that Harry can be difficult, that he’s changed, that he’s not the person he used to be.
But let’s be honest—is anyone really surprised? Look at his behavior over the past few years: the interviews, the book, the constant attacks on his family—all while claiming he wants privacy. It’s like he’s living in some alternate reality where you can trash your family publicly and still expect to be welcomed back with open arms. And where’s Meghan in all this? Oh, that’s right—she showed up for the cameras and then vanished back to California. Classic move from someone who’s always been more interested in the spotlight than the actual work.
Remember her brief stint as a working royal? Couldn’t handle it for more than 18 months. Meanwhile, Catherine’s been at it for years—through thick and thin, through criticism and praise, always putting duty first. The most tragic part of all this is that Harry probably doesn’t even realize how far he’s fallen—from beloved prince to Hollywood hanger-on, from military hero to his wife’s PR puppet. Burrell’s comments just confirm what we’ve all been watching happen in slow motion: the complete destruction of Prince Harry’s reputation and dignity.
You know what really gets me? The way they still try to play the victim card while living in their $14 million mansion. The way they complain about privacy while doing everything possible to stay in the headlines. The way they attack the royal family while still clinging to their titles. It’s like they think we’re all stupid and can’t see through their games.
And now here’s Harry at the Invictus Games, trying to recapture some of his old glory. But even this beautiful initiative has been tainted by the “Meghan effect.” What should be about the competitors—about their incredible stories of resilience and courage—becomes just another platform for the Sussex brand. It’s heartbreaking, really.
Let’s contrast this with how William and Catherine handle their charitable work. No drama, no headlines about them leaving early, no making it about themselves. They show up, they do the work, they make it about the causes and the people they’re there to support. That’s what real royal work looks like.
And King Charles? Despite everything Harry’s thrown at him in that book, despite all the accusations and drama, he’s maintained his dignity. He’s kept the door open for reconciliation while still protecting the institution. That’s what real leadership looks like. That’s what Harry could have learned from—if he hadn’t been so busy following his wife’s Hollywood dreams.
The reality is, Harry’s gone from being one of the most beloved members of the royal family to being, as Burrell’s comments suggest, a difficult, troubled man who’s lost his way. And the saddest part? He’s done it all for someone who seems more interested in fame and fortune than in actually supporting the causes and institutions that gave her a platform in the first place.
Remember when Harry used to be known for his cheeky charm, his military service, his genuine connection with people? Now he’s known for being Meghan’s husband, for attacking his family, for being difficult. What a fall from grace. And all because he couldn’t see what was right in front of him.
You know what’s really telling? The way the British public has reacted to all this. They’ve completely seen through the act. They remember the old Harry—the one who served his country, the one who created the Invictus Games from a place of genuine compassion. And they can see what he’s become: exactly what Burrell describes.
And let’s not forget—this is coming from someone who worked closely with Princess Diana, someone who knew Harry as a child. When he says Harry can be difficult, he’s not just speculating—like all those Hollywood friends Meghan and Harry surround themselves with now. He’s speaking from real firsthand experience.
The contrast between the brothers couldn’t be more stark now, could it? William, the future king, married to Catherine—a woman who understands duty and service. And Harry, the spare, married to someone who saw the royal family as a stepping stone to celebrity status. It’s like a tale of two princes: one who understood his destiny, and one who lost his way.
You know what really breaks my heart? Thinking about what Diana would make of all this. Her beloved boys, once so close, now barely speaking. Her younger son, once so dedicated to service, now reduced to being a celebrity spouse in California. Would she recognize the Harry we see today?
But here’s the thing, my royal-watching friends: this is what happens when you choose the wrong path, when you let the wrong influences guide you. Harry had everything—respect, purpose, a loving family. And now? Well, Burrell’s comments tell us everything we need to know about that.
So, what’s next for our lost prince? Will he ever wake up and realize what he’s lost? Will he ever break free from the Hollywood spell he seems to be under? Only time will tell. But based on what we’re seeing—and what insiders like Paul Burrell are telling us—I wouldn’t hold my breath.
