Unexpected Response of King Charles Upon Phone Breach Incident
King Charles' Amusing Mix-Up with a Chinese Takeaway
In an anecdote shared by Grant Harrold, the former butler to King Charles, it was revealed that the monarch once received a call on his private phone, believing it to be a Chinese takeaway. The incident, which occurred during Harrold's tenure as Charles' butler between 2004 and 2011 at Highgrove House, was one of many moments that Harrold noted during his service.
According to Harrold, who is promoting his memoir The Royal Butler: My Remarkable Life of Royal Service, the callers persistently tried to order a Chinese takeaway from King Charles' private phone. Despite King Charles' correction that he is not a Chinese takeaway and they had the wrong number, the callers refused to believe their error. The staff had to intervene, informing the callers that they had dialed the wrong number.
The mix-up, reported earlier this week by the Manchester Evening News, showcases a more "normal" and "approachable" side of the royals, according to Harrold. However, the article does not provide information about the impact or consequences of the call on King Charles or his staff. Additionally, no further details about the caller or the Chinese takeaway were provided, and the article does not mention any other similar incidents involving King Charles' private phone.
Grant Harrold, now 47 years old, served as Charles' butler for seven years. His memoir offers a unique insight into the life and workings of the royal household. The mix-up with the Chinese takeaway call is just one of the many stories that Harrold shares, providing a glimpse into the everyday life of the royals behind palace walls.
