To spill or not to spill: Burrell to speak?

September 20th, 2009 Mandy No comments

It has been reported that Paul Burrell is about to speak out on the Queen Mother’s relationship with Diana, Princess of Wales.

Burrell, the Princess’ former butler, was said to have been disappointed that Diana was barely mentioned in William Shawcross’ official biography ‘Queen Elizabeth: The Queen Mother’.

A so-called ‘insider’ said: “To be fair, if anyone knows what really went on between Diana and the Queen Mother, it’s Paul. The Shawcross book may just force him finally to tell it how it was, as he can’t stand the idea of Diana being ignored in such a way.”

Steve Dennis, however, says otherwise.

Dennis, the ghost writer for Paul Burrell’s books “Remembering Diana” and “A Royal Duty”, has set the record straight.

“FYI, Paul Burrell’s not spilling the beans at all. Don’t so readily trust everything you read,” Dennis told me via Twitter. “I’m his media advisor. Trust me, these articles are inventions.”

So will Burrell be coming out with another yarn to earn a buck, or is he staying silent like Steve Dennis claims? I guess time will tell…

Steve Dennis is also the author of the book Britney: Inside the Dream and has been an on-air contributor on the Fox News Channel.

Help For Paul Burrell

March 23rd, 2008 Mandy No comments

Paul, You Need To Get Serious Help When:

You think you’re a celebrity for selling out a dead woman.

You’re a willing participant on a reality show about ‘Princess-making’.

You’re a willing participant on a second reality show.

You make a website all about yourself and your “achievements”.

You have professional photos made of yourself in various “serious” poses.

You go on tour.

You act like your achievements aren’t made on the coattails of a dead Princess.

You lie to a High Court.

You lie to a High Court and then say you were being “naughty” for doing it.

When you are telling others that you hope they can sleep at night, even though you refuse to return to the UK to explain inconsistencies in your testimony.

Paul Burrell Trial Transcript

March 20th, 2008 Mandy No comments

Here is the Talking Point transcript from the BBC regarding the Burrell trial.

It is interesting that media lawyer Mark Stephens is so pro-monarchy, he’s actually anti-monarchy. Confused? Don’t be. Look at what he said, then tell me if you agree with me:

I’ve represented a number of Royal servants and ex-Royal servants and all of them have had this great, great discretion – they’re the sort of servants that you really would want in your own home because they are so discreet – they just don’t tell you anything about what goes on in the Royal household and rightly so.

This will probably not go over too well with the general public. Taxpayer money has been spent, it has been regarded as ‘wasted’, and many people have accused the Queen of interfering. In light of this atmosphere, it is not a smart idea to talk as if we could even have servants or know about the world of courtiers. Stephens needs a more even-handed approach, and by not doing that he is making the Queen and the family look bad or as if they have something to hide. Comments?

I Need A Shower. Ugh.

February 20th, 2008 Mandy No comments

I do. I need to get clean after reading about Paul Burrell. The Sun newspaper in London has uncovered a video in which Burrell speaks about misleading the coroner, British High Court judge Lord Justice Scott Baker.

Burrell freely admits he knew that he broke the law by lying to the inquest, adding: “I was very naughty.”

I was very naughty!? Now is not the time to be playing the coquette in a matter this serious, Paul. I know it is your deep desire to actually be a blonde, beloved Princess, but right now your life and credibility are on the line.

To read further, take a look at The Times. I wish this inquest would end, but how can it with people like Burrell?!

What Cheek!

December 14th, 2006 Mandy No comments

The former butler of Britain’s Princess Diana believes he should play a key role in Princes Harry and William’s memorial concert for their late mother.

Paul Burrell saw himself as one of Diana’s closest confidants and is reportedly expecting to be consulted on plans for next year’s commemorative event marking the 10th anniversary of the princess’ untimely death in 1997.

The man has no right to be there. He revealed Diana’s personal business and he is a complete media hound. But I say, if her sons want him there, then I guess Burrell participates.

Embarrassing Revelations

September 7th, 2006 Mandy No comments

Yes, this is getting embarassing. MORE ‘revelations’? Give it up, Paul, you look desparate.

But Paul Burrell obviously doesn’t seem to mind, though. He has no shame, proudly plugging another book of his ‘intimate’ anecdotes. Even I feel embarrassed. Indeed, people everywhere are cringing. This is so ludicrous.

How long can he go on in this vein, feeding stories to the media that “something big” is always right around the corner, writing books on things he’s already covered?

An Open Letter To Paul Burrell

July 12th, 2006 Mandy No comments

Speaking of hangers-on, I would like to take this opportunity to post this open letter to Mr. Paul Burrell, whose website I’ve just viewed. Much to my own chagrin.

Dear Mr. Burrell,

I find your status as a quasi-celebrity highly questionable. How long will you go on making ‘appearances’ and writing books, living off the name of the late Princess? If you truly want to help people remember Diana, why not work for her charitable causes or her estate, rather than simply pose as a celebrity? Do something of worth for her before you tour American cities and hock your “intimate” revelations just to pad your own ego.

I laugh at your criticism of Simone Simmons. Of course you don’t like her – she’s competition in the Princess of Wales Fame stakes.

If you look around his website, it seems that he is pretending to be like Diana. It is extremely creepy.
