Princess Margaret was known to be an absolute icon, soaking up the luxury that comes with being the late Queen Elizabeth’s younger sister. Less pressure, but all the benefits. She was notorious for her lavish lifestyle, with a 4-hour long morning routine that involved breakfast in bed, two hours listening to the radio, chain-smoking, a bath, hair and makeup, and a vodka-pick-me-up before a four-course lunch.
It comes as no surprise to learn that she enjoyed opulent party planning, that her former lady-in-waiting describes as “treats.” Lady Anne Glenconner told Tatler that Princess Margaret would plan these special days out, “which every so often she would lay on for the members of her household, some of her ladies-in-waiting and some friends.”
