Considering she was only 19-years-old when her engagement to Prince Charles was announced, Princess Diana was never known to be a late-night party girl. In fact, the late Princess of Wales was known to be an early adapter of the “sleepy girl” trend, opting for an early bedtime and a good night’s sleep above all else. In an interview shortly after her historic wedding, Princess Diana admitted she was missing an upcoming fireworks display in favor of her bedtime. "I'm going to be tucked up in bed I think, early night,” the princess told Angela Rippon.
She may have been hinting at an early wake up the next day, as the fireworks display was scheduled for the evening before the Prince and Princess of Wales would depart on their honeymoon aboard the Royal Yacht Britannia. While on her oceanic honeymoon, Princess Diana wrote a letter on Royal Yacht Britannia–crested paper, telling a friend “The honeymoon was a perfect opportunity to catch up on sleep.”
