Paul Burrell Warns Meghan Markle To 'Be Careful What You Wish For'
Meghan Markle received a new warning, this time from Princess Diana's former butler, Paul Burrell.
In an interview with Yahoo New's The Royal Box, Burrell opened up about the newest member of the Firm. He understands the pressure that the Duchess of Sussex is going through and offered a word of advice.
"I think, yes she did want to be famous, she's got everything that she wanted, but I [also] think 'be careful what you wish for' because sometimes it's not all that it seems," Burrell said about Markle (via The Sun).
"Diana found that out, at an early age. To be a royal princess sometimes, losing your anonymity, losing that freedom, that's a big ask for any woman in today's society," he continued.
Burrell pointed out Markle's decision to leave USA Network's "Suits" and added that "she has just landed the biggest role of her life."
Ruthie Henshall, Prince Edward's ex also advised Markle against leaving the glamour of Hollywood. According to her, if she was to make a choice, she would not leave acting.
"It should be about love not duty and I think it [Harry and Meghan] could work and be rather wonderful," Henshall said. "It never would have been an option for me to do so — my career is my first love and is such an important part of who I am. I would have been unhappy."
However, Markle is already at peace with her choice. For her, she didn't give up anything by choosing to be with Prince Harry and leaving her acting career.
"I don't see it as giving anything up. I just see it as a change," Markle told BBC. "It's a new chapter, right? And also, keep in mind, I've been working on ['Suits'] for seven years. We were very, very fortunate to have that sort of longevity on a series…I've ticked this box, and I feel very proud of the work I've done there, and now it's time to work with [Harry] as a team."
In related news, Burrell revealed earlier that Princess Diana had a premonition of her death. The late Princess of Wales was reportedly suspecting Prince Charles of plotting an automobile accident to marry Camilla Parker Bowles.
"Her words were 'these next few months, are the most difficult months of my life. I fear my husband is going to kill me. In an automobile accident. With head injuries. In order that he can remarry,'" Burrell said. "That is spooky. She predicted her own death nine months before she died."
