sex with Princess Diana

Solicitors for Paul Burrell, the former butler to Princess Diana,
have written a complaint to the Press Complaints Commission claiming
a News of the World story alleging Burrell claimed
he had sex with Princess Diana was untrue.

The June 15 story relied on claims made by Burrell's brother-in-law
Ron Cosgrove, who said Burrell had told him of an affair during
a pub conversation in 1993, published under the front-page headline
'Burrell: I had sex with Diana'.

Burrell's solicitor David Price said in the letter that Cosgrove had a history
of financial problems and claimed Cosgrove had been paid a £45,000
"inducement to provide a sensational and salacious story".
