Paul Burrell has proudly admitted that he was given the ‘all clear’ from doctors after his his long battle with prostate cancer, as he spoke with Lorraine on Thursday.
The former royal butler, 65, also shed light on the new series of The Crown, which released earlier today, and told how ‘it is going to upset a lot of people’.
During his appearance on the ITV morning show, Paul, who worked beside and was a confidante of Diana, Princess of Wales, for ten years until her death in 1997, shared his incredible health update.
He said: ‘Well I’m happy to tell you I saw my consultant last week and she gave me the all clear.
‘My number came down from 10 to something like 0.06, so it’s good news and I’ll continue with the hormone therapy, which is a bit of a pain because I put on a little bit of weight, I’m getting more emotional than usual and hot sweats.’

He joked to Lorraine: ‘I can now sympathize!’
Lorraine laughed: ‘For most of us women of a certain age, you know exactly what it’s like, but it’s great that you’re doing so well and also you’ve been raising awareness as well so that’s the main thing as well.’
In April, Paul proudly rang the bell after revealing he had completed radiotherapy treatment for his cancer.
Paul was diagnosed with the disease last summer.
Paul admitted I’m A Celebrity All Stars ‘literally saved my life’ thanks to health tests before heading off to film the show in South Africa which later revealed he had cancer.
Alongside eight other celebrities, Paul was in Kruger National Park in north-eastern South Africa, one of Africa’s largest game reserves to film for the first ever I’m A Celebrity series featuring previous stars of the jungle.
But after coming home to the UK, Paul was handed some heartbreaking news which followed up on some health checks taken before his trip.
Elsewhere in the interview with Lorraine, Paul joined royal correspondent Russell Myers to discuss the controversy around the new series of The Crown.

The Crown controversy: He said: ‘I can’t watch that, it’s too graphic and too much. It will upset William and Harry and upset a lot of people watching that. It’s very emotional isn’t it’
As a preview from a clip of leading up too Diana’s crash in The Crown appeared on screen, Paul had to look away as he finds it ‘too difficult’ to watch.
He said: ‘I can’t watch that, it’s too graphic and too much. It will upset William and Harry and upset a lot of people watching that. It’s very emotional isn’t it.
He added: ‘I find this very difficult this series I don’t know if I can watch it. I found it easier to watch it at the beginning, the first series of The Crown because it’s far enough away isn’t it, in history for us to be not emotionally involved.
‘But this series, I am emotionally invested in it and I am going to be critical of it because it is a dramatisation of it. It’s Hollywood, it’s not real life.
‘I personally think the Princess was misrepresented and misinterpreted all her life, and here we go again with The Crown, it’s not the real Diana.
‘The real Diana I knew was a fighter, she wasn’t shy and retiring, she fought for what she believed in and she fought for her boys.’
