Paul Burrell claims Princess Diana haunts his home in chilling admission

Paul Burrell has shockingly claimed that his home in Chester is haunted by the late Princess Diana, who tragically died in 1997.

The former butler turned reality TV star, 65, is starring in a new TV show titled Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted. And on the back of experts who specialise in ghosts, it seems as though the late mother of Prince William and Prince Harry has spoken to him after he and his partner reportedly noticed ghostly figures. Paul recently made the sensational claim despite having moved into the property 20 years after Princess Diana lost her life in a tragic car crash in Paris, in 1997.

Paul, who was part of the Royal household, and his partner Graham Cooper made a call to paranormal experts after claiming to spot ghostly shadows. In the episode, ghost hunters used a special device to determine if they could hear any ghosts - and it was claimed they heard Princess Diana mentioning two distinctive words - "sorry" and "France."

This prompted Paul to believe this was a reference to her death in Paris 27 years ago. In the episode, he said: "I don't understand why it would say 'France' other than the fact that the Princess died in France and the fact I went to France to bring her home."

He continued: "I had been introduced to this world before by the Princess. She was heavily involved in spirituality. Mediums, psychics, astrologers... and I witnessed it from the edges. I watched her and she would giggle afterwards and say ‘You don’t believe, do you?’ and I would say well I’m not sure.”

He added: "When you have loved someone in life - and I did love her - and they pass very quickly, a little piece of them remains behind and you carry them with you for the rest of your days. If my Princess wanted to tell me something, I think she would come to me.”

But Princess Diana is not the only member of the Royal Family to allegedly believe in the paranormal. Paul went on to explain: "And Diana wasn’t the only senior royal to believe in spirits and ghosts Our dear late queen always said that there were ghosts and she said ‘I never go to Allt-na-giubhsaich’ - Glassalt, the cottage on the lake in Balmoral - ‘without the corgis because the corgis sense it before I do."

He added: "Their hackles go up and they start to growl so I never go without them and I never stay the night there’. Queen Victoria would stay the night there with John Brown. At the time I thought to myself, my goodness Queen Elizabeth II believes in ghosts and she is a very intelligent woman so there must be something there. But I never saw one myself. I never saw one at Kensington Palace, never saw anybody coming down the staircase with their head under their arm. I wasn’t tuned in.”
