Princess Diana’s former chef, Darren McGrady, often shares his favorite stories from the Kensington Palace kitchen on his YouTube channel, including recipes for some of Diana’s most-loved dishes. But in a special tribute video he made for the late royal’s birthday, McGrady shared one hilarious story about a time Princess Diana took the cooking into her own hands.
Explaining that he worked for Diana “Monday through Friday,” McGrady said he’d “leave food in the refrigerator for her” on weekends. The chef admitted that the princess “wasn’t a good cook” and he would include stickers on the pre-made meals with a number indicating which setting on the microwave to press.
