The Royal Butler

My remarkable life of royal service with Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles III and many more

De: Grant Harrold

Narrado por: Grant Harrold

Discover the revelatory royal autobiography of the year, with stories featuring Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles III and many more.

From an early age, Grant Harrold was always obsessed with the royal family. Glued to the television screen watching countless documentaries on Her Majesty the Queen, it seemed the most unlikely outcome that this working-class boy from Scotland would end up walking the corridors of royal palaces and households.

Starting out as a young and naive under-butler in stately homes and working his way up to the highest honour of serving the King and Queen, this memoir charts Grant's extraordinary journey to the highest levels of royal society.

The relationship between the king and his staff has always been shrouded in mystery, but in this compelling autobiography, one of Britain's top royal experts reveals his story for the first time and shares insight and never-before-heard stories about his time in royal service.©2025 Grant Harrold (P)2025 Hachette Book Group Audio

Fundamental Failure: A Butler’s Wasted Vantage Point

After listening to this work, the evidence is clear: it has been sanitized beyond any useful purpose and offers only trivial knowledge rather than meaningful Royal insight. A waste of time, this is just about the author. It’s like his driving with no lights at night to putting on the blue lights on Prince Charles’s car at that time and not knowing it for the entire drive and having to be told. It is an insight into the author. While ‘Palace Confidential’ has promoted this publication extensively, the fundamental failure remains: someone with extraordinary access to the Royal household has squandered an invaluable opportunity. No amount of promotional effort can remedy that basic deficiency.
