The former butler of the late Princess Diana has revealed the late Queen's private bathtime routine in the I'm A Celebrity camp, much to the surprise of his co-stars. Paul Burrell is currently taking part in the South African series which sees iconic campmates from seasons gone by return.
The first ever all-star spin-off series, which is fronted by presenters Ant and Dec, has a legendary line-up with Myleene Klass, Andy Whyment, Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo and Gillian McKeith recently joining the line-up, which already consisted of Amir Khan, Jordan Banjo, Carol Vorderman, Fatima Whitbread, Shaun Ryder, Helen Flanagan, Phil Tufnell, Janice Dickinson and Paul Burrell.
And in scenes set to air on Wednesday, April 26, Paul answered questions from his campmates about the royals and their bathtime routines. In a first look at tonight's episode, Countdown star Carol says to Paul: "Do you know what, I need a butler."

"Carol, if ever you need a butler you've got me," Paul replied. Supermodel Janice then asked: "Did you have to like give the Queen a bath?"
Paul responded: "No, she did that herself," before adding: "You have to set the towels out in a special way and royals never run their baths, they're run for them. So they never have to put the plug in."
"Really," Janice, 68, asked, seemingly surprised. Later in the the Bush Telegraph she said: "Paul the butler from the royal house has the best stories on Earth.
"So I kind of ask him little questions here and there and he goes on and on and I'm like 'Ah, yes, yes!'"
Elsewhere in the episode, musician and presenter Myleene Klass, Corrie star Andy Whyment and TV personality and author Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo, join the camp as late arrivals. Believing they are about to enter main camp, the trio get a surprise to find they are actually at a different location.
Finding a Bush Bulletin, Myleene reads: "Celebrities, welcome to Savannah Scrub where three celebrities will live separated from the others in main camp."
I'm A Celebrity continues on ITV1 and ITVX on weeknights at 9pm. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
