Why I Feel So Queasy About King Charles' Butler's Book Saying Harry Was On Board With the Camilla Marriage
Harry wrote in 'Spare' how he was deeply traumatized by his mother's death, and his father's betrayal of her with Camilla. A new butler's memoir seeks to rebut that—very conveniently for the king.
There is something odd about the excerpt of a memoir of a former butler to King Charles published in the Daily Telegraph today that flatly contradicts Prince Harry’s own account of his reaction to his father’s marriage to Camilla Parker Bowles.
Grant Harrold worked for Charles for seven years, and writes that on the day of Charles and Camilla’s wedding in 2005, both William and Harry threw themselves into the spirit of the day, going so far as to decorate the newlyweds’ car with a “Just Married” sign and run gleefully after it as Charles and Camilla headed for the airport.
“We all went outside to wave them off and laughed as we saw William and Harry had decorated their car,” he writes in The Royal Butler, due to be published later this month. “As they drove off, the boys raced after them to cheers and applause.”
