For chauffeuring, Mr Sclarandis used not the Rolls but an 18-year-old Toyota with 210,000 miles on the clock. Mr. Sclarandis He says he was left  
   £2,000 out of pocket doing his mistress's shopping. Mr Sclarandis says he once gave Mr Hay and Lady Killearn a lift to Italy in his white van, and that
   Mr Hay begged him not to tell his wife about it.

   He started work for Lady Killearn in September 2004 but claims he was turfed out on to Harley Street in August 2006 and barred from collecting     
   anything from his room.

    A County Court has since ordered Lady Killearn to pay £1,500 to the employment agency that sent Mr Sclarandis for interview. But she claims her
    butler's 'abusive behaviour' made her 'quite ill', and is fighting his tribunal claim, saying he was self employed, not an employee. Her regular companion
   Mr Hay, who when not with Lady Killearn lives with his wife Sarah at Bickleigh Castle near Tiverton, Devon, refuses to return the butler's possessions
    until missing heirlooms reappear.

   Mr Sclarandis, 64, of Hammersmith, West London, who once dealt antiques in Turin, said: "Lady Killearn is despotic - she still thinks she's living in the
   glory days of the British Empire. But she lives in squalor, with dangerous wiring, piles of clothes in her cramped bedroom and her bathroom falling to
   pieces. And she treated me like a slave. Her 'toyboy' Robert Hay reduced my envisaged salary from £18,200 to £14,400. When I arrived there a Sikh
   man called Singh Khalsa was sleeping on a mattress in the basement in return for making Lady Killearn's breakfast."

   Mr Sclarandis added: "Mr Hay once wanted to pick some furniture up from Switzerland, so I gave him and Lady Killearn a lift, even though she's in her
   nineties and it was a 1,700-mile round trip. When we went on to Turin, they shared a hotel room. Mr Hay told me to keep the trip secret from his wife."

   Lady Killearn was 24 when she married Lord Killearn, then 54, in 1934. He died 30 years later. They had two daughters and a son, the current Lord
   Killearn. Lady Killearn said in a tribunal statement: "Paolo removed my furniture and disposed of it without permission." Her secretary Lydia Skerry said
   in a statement: "Paolo often stood over Lady Killearn, bullying her. He used to feed Lady Killearn pasta drenched in olive oil, virtually raw meat, doughnuts
   or McDonald's food."

   Mr Hay, a land agent, told the Daily Mail: "Paolo was a self-employed part-time carer who was often busy running his own furniture business. I called the
   police after an old master painting went missing, and have a writ out against him over stolen furniture. He's just trying to make a quick buck."

   Mr Hay insists his relationship with Lady Killearn is innocent, but conceded he had asked Mr Sclarandis not to tell his wife about the drive to the
   Continent.

   "I said to Paolo, 'Say nothing, because I haven't cleared it with my wife', but I told her eventually. We shared a room in Turin, but it was two single
   beds."

   The unfair dismissal case continues in Ashford, Kent.
