Diana's Secret Late-Night Snacks Revealed!
15 Apr
Summary
- Princess Diana enjoyed late-night snacks in the Kensington Palace kitchen.
- Cold lamb cutlets were a favorite, alongside more casual choices.
- Diana preferred an informal atmosphere, unlike Prince Charles's views.
Princess Diana's eating habits, much like her personal style, remain a topic of public interest nearly three decades after her passing.
Former royal chef Mervyn Wycherley and Diana's ex-bodyguard Ken Wharfe shared insights into her life at Kensington Palace. They described a relaxed kitchen atmosphere where Diana would often join them, enjoying snacks whenever she pleased. Her preferred late-night treat was cold lamb cutlets, kept readily available in a small fridge.
This penchant for accessible snacks extended to taking her sons, Princes William and Harry, to fast-food establishments like McDonald's. This practice reportedly caused friction with Prince Charles, who favored the palace's dedicated chefs and expressed disdain for such casual dining choices. Wharfe noted Diana's wish for staff to feel like family, a sentiment contrary to the Prince of Wales's approach at the time.
