[Denver]

Princess Diana's former butler Paul Burrell has come out as gay after announcing he is to wed his boyfriend just nine months after divorcing his wife of 32 years.

Mr Burrell, 58, now a florist living in Cheshire, will tie the knot to his lawyer partner Graham Cooper next month.

The father-of-two divorced his wife Maria, 62, in June last year and it is believed that his new wedding announcement is his first acknowledgement that he is gay.

The couple's adult sons Alexander, 27, and Nicholas, 24, are expected to fly over from the US to attend the wedding ceremony in the Lake District.
