Talking about the importance of a gift, Grant recalled how William and Harry always celebrated Father’s Day with a card and a gift for Charles.
“They showed their appreciation towards him,” the royal butler added.
It was definitely a happy time for them on the day
He went on: “When you only have one parent, you put more effort into that. It was definitely a happy time for them on the day, but it was very much an occasion behind closed doors.”
