Kate Middleton ‘was different’ with royal staff

• Former royal butler praises Kate Middleton for her modesty.
• Kate and Prince William were “like any boyfriend and girlfriend.”

Grant Harrold, the royal butler, claims that during their seven-year relationship, Kate and Prince William were “like any boyfriend and girlfriend.”

He added: “[They weren’t] any different to anyone else, it’s mad saying that when you think about who they are, but there wasn’t anything different.

“What I liked was that Kate, being a girlfriend and obviously not a member of the family, would be with me and the other staff and she was so polite, friendly, and fun and making jokes.

“I remember there were days I had off where I’d be running an errand or I’d left something up at Highgrove [House] and they were around, so you’d just catch up with them.

“It was always fun and it was always nice that I got on so well with them because they’d then ask me to travel the country with them.

“When my phone used to go off and it was William, all my friends would be like that’s so cool, but to me it was normal. That was the relationship I had with them.

“I think it was really special and not unusual, actually, because in a private home you’re expected to get on with the family. As for the younger members of the family, you’re not employed by them, but you end up having a relationship with them as well.

“There’s very few people that the Royals actually get to know, so you do feel lucky that you were trusted with that,” he concluded.
