London, England (BANG) - First, he insults the royal family and then he expects to be invited to Princess Diana's tribute concert? Sorry, it ain't going to happen, buddy.
The former butler of Princess Diana wants to be invited to the music event next year.
Paul Burrell says he believes he should play a key role in Princes Harry and William's memorial concert for their late mother.
Burrell saw himself as one of Diana's closest confidants and is reportedly expecting to be consulted on plans for next year's commemorative event marking the 10th anniversary of the princess' untimely death in 1997.
A source told the Daily Express said, "Paul obviously feels that it would be appropriate for him to be involved in the events marking the anniversary but, considering the breakdown in his relationship with the princes, it currently seems pretty unlikely.
Paul is going to be very upset if he's snubbed and is likely to cause quite a fuss publicly."
Earlier this year, the former servant upset Diana's sons when he accused them of no longer flying the flag for their mother.
Critics have also slammed him for cashing in on the princess' name after he released his second book about his life with Diana, "The Way We Were" in September.
His first tome, "A Royal Duty," published in October 2003, was a huge bestseller selling 274,000 copies, but his follow-up failed to match the success, making only 6,000 in its first week.
