The former personal assistant to Prince Charles gets justice
Alexandra Pettifer is the former personal assistant, companion and nanny to Prince Charles. She is also known as Tiggy Legge-Bourke, and she was caught up in the debacle of Princess Diana's BBC interview, which took place almost 30 years ago. The BBC has agreed to a settlement for the wrongs it did to her when she was the personal assistant to The Prince of Wales.
It was claimed by the BBC that Prince Charles had an affair with his personal assistant and that she had become pregnant, but it was all untrue. The high court has ruled that the former companion to The Prince of Wales was wronged.

What is it like to be the personal assistant to Prince Charles?
Being a personal assistant or nanny to a royal family is a very demanding job. It's long hours and takes a lot of discipline. Learning royal protocol is often part of the job as well. It goes without saying that working for Prince Charles and Princess Diana came with its own set of problems because of their fame. It truly takes a "service heart" to be in such a role.
When you work as a personal assistant to a royal family or high-net-worth individual, it's very difficult to have a personal life. So much of what you do is in the service of your employer, and that's not easy. It takes commitment and training.
