Princess Diana's former butler has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and wants to speak to the brothers "before it is too late"

Prince Harry and Prince William could be brought back together by secrets that their mother's trusted former staff member is ready to disclose.

Paul Burrell has admitted he wants to meet Princess Diana's sons to discuss secrets she confided in him.


The former royal butler added that anything discussed with Prince William and Prince Harry would remain private.

He said: “I know some of it isn’t pretty, but if I leave this place and go somewhere else they’ll never know.

“I think they should know.”

Burrell continued: “My illness has focused my attention on telling the boys things before it’s too late – telling them what they really should know.

“I think Diana would say to me, ‘Paul, you must make this a priority. You must go and see my boys’.”

He added: “She confided in me and there are many things I have never spoken about, but now I feel the time is right.

“I think what I have to say could bring the boys back together, which Diana would have desperately wanted.

"I will only tell them the truth, that is all. I am not looking for anything in return.”

Burrell added that he wants to see Prince Harry and Prince William end their feud.

He said: “Wouldn’t it be wonderful to see the boys repair their relationship and to be back where they should be back.

"The public would love that. I’d applaud that.

“I’d love to see William put his arm around his brother, but I don’t think we’re going to see that because there are too many obstacles in the way.”

Burrell added: “If we ever sat down, I would say to William, ‘This is within these walls and will never come out’.”
