On today’s Daily T, Grant Harrold recounts his extraordinary journey from a terraced house in North Lanarkshire to serving as butler to the then Prince of Wales at Highgrove.

Harrold’s boyhood fascination with the Queen set him on a path that ended with a critical role in the inner sanctum of every day Royal life, and he tells The Daily T how a young Prince Harry dropped water bombs on him, how the Queen’s mischievous nature saw him sprinting along a corridor with her at Charles’ residence in Scotland, and how Prince Philip turned the air blue after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s wedding in 2018.

He also states his belief that, although having left the household by then, Harry and Meghan’s unflattering account of life in the Royal family “doesn’t ring right” to him.

‘The Royal Butler: My remarkable life of royal service’ by Grant Harrold is published by Seven Dials on August 28 2025
