Paul Burrell revealed there are consequences for royal staffers if they shut down King Charles III's request.
"Charles has always lived in a world where all his household and staff bow and call him 'your Royal Highness,'" Paul Burrell told
The Mirror. "Now, of course, it is 'Your Majesty.' Nobody says no. If you do, you're out."

"He lives in a gilded bubble and is served whatever he wants, whenever he wants, and by whom he wants," Paul Burrell continued.

Despite King Charles III's stubbornness, Burrell noted that Queen Camilla doesn't always listen to her husband's demands.
"The only person that can say 'no' is Camilla. She is and always will be a non-negotiable," Paul Burrell shared. "Perhaps her no-nonsense approach is what Charles needs. She's the steady hand on the tiller of the royal ship now, like it or not."

"She is at the helm. She rarely asks for anything but is given everything and now has the ultimate position as queen," Paul Burrell added.
