Former royal butler 'shocked' by Prince Harry allegations as he remembers a 'close family'

A former royal butler has told Sky News he is "shocked" by the allegations Prince Harry has made saying he remembers a "loving, caring family".

Grant Harrold said the allegations were "serious" and King Charles could remove Harry's title if they were found not to be true.

This is so dificult to hear about. Maybe it's a good thing the Queen left when she did; she might have been terribly heartbroken by all of this.

When my father died when I was 16 my mother didn't hug me. She wasn't a hugger. I survived.

Root of problem is that queen of drama and jealousy.

This is getting silly now. Imagine if we were all held accountable for family disagreements.

If William did hit Harry it obviously wasn’t hard enough.

It’s true Harry was allowed to live the life he wanted . The world witnessed it - when he stripped his clothes off in the US, took drugs, got drunk, went on raunchy escapades - embarrassing the Queen .. What a spoilt/ungrateful brat

as a person once respected and admired he now disgusts me

I adored my grandparents. I adored the Queen and Prince Philip. I'm glad they're not here to see what is happening to the country they loved.😥

Im so sorry that The royal family have to go through this, especially William who had a lifelong close friendship with Harry. Its a cruel betrayal. Its hard for royals to have friends, because of the risk of people cashing in on that friendship by selling the intimate details to the media, and thats exactly what Harry has done. William has lost one of the most beloved and closest people in his life to a betrayal. It must break his heart.

Maybe other butlers, aides, maids, etc. should come out and say what King Charles and The Prince of Wales cannot say.

When my brother died of cancer at age 35….my mother didn’t even cry or even at funeral. She’s now 87 and battling cancer….recently said to me she still hasn’t cried Never judge someone in grief!

Hanging your family out to dry is so messed up considering he’s making money out of all this💀. Everything he’s doing seems so hypocritical to me.

[anonymous-xyue]

As soon as he announced his "number" I lost all respect for him- who does that?! I've never had a soldier tell me that and I would never ask! Tasteless

It’s hard to believe that Harry wrote this book planning to publish it when he didn’t know the Queen would die when she did. For him to claim love for her under these circumstances is is so two-faced. This is unbelievable to me that he would do this to his family.

Interesting how the souring of the relationship between Harry and the rest of the family has coincided with the arrival of a certain someone on the scene. Not that Harry is blameless in all of this, of course he isn't, and the amount of hatred that he's displaying towards the family doesn't come out of nowhere. But we can certainly see how the certain someone has fanned the flames of that hatred and encouraged Harry's feelings of pettiness and jealousy towards William in particular.

Harry is simply ungrateful. He wasn't complaining when his father paid for his security. He wasn't crying about a lack of love then.

To think all of this was to be released while the Queen was alive...unforgivable 😔😔

[darlene]

What is coming through Harry’s complaints, in an odd way, is that William is normal with integrity. Rather than looking like a bad guy, I have more respect for him. And Harry, to sell out his family for money, he comes across as the lowest of the low.

[joerobinson]

This book is ‘Me again’s’ version of the Jada ‘Red Table’ conversation with Will Smith, she’s hung him out to dry ( Narcs Handbook Chptr 8 ) and this is the equivalent of slapping Chris Rock / William. This guy is AWOL and needs intervention ASAP.

I would imagine it's the end of Harry and the Invictus games, most soldiers will not be impressed.
