Paul Burrell, who Diana called “My Rock”, says he wants to set the record straight after Andrew Morton’s book portrayed Diana as a tortured and unhappy soul. Friends say he has been secretly compiling his memories of 20 years in the service of the Royal Family ― and he claims his book will be “a final statement” about the Diana he knew so well. Paul believes she wasn’t as unloved or unstable as the Andrew Morton book suggested. He feels he knew Diana in her later life better than anyone. In the later years Diana confided in Paul an awful lot. Diana had encouraged her butler to keep an account of his life with the Royal Family ― an account that has been carefully hidden from the Palace powers-that-be. Paul was very cautions and didn’t want anything to fall into the wrong hands. He used to mail his writings to trusted friends for safekeeping. These have never been opened but they are there when Paul needs them. Mr. Burrell has employed Louise Cosgrove, his wife’s niece, to help record his memories. Mr. Burrell’s official duties included serving Diana her meals, arranging social engagements and ferrying her around. But off-duty he was her most trusted aide ― and her shoulder to cry on. The faithful butler was with the Princess in her last big overseas visits to Angola and Bosnia. After her death he sat up all night with her body and was the only “outsider” at the private burial.
