Bishop: Butler had no permission to remove Diana property
Royal butler Paul Burrell had not asked permission from the Bishop of London - an executor of the Princess of Wales’s will – to remove property from Kensington Palace after her death, an Old Bailey court heard today.
The Rt Rev Richard Chartres, the first non-police witness to give evidence in Burrell’s trial, was called to give details about his role as both a Dean of the Chapels Royal and as an executor.
