As a palace chef for 15 years, Darren McGrady got a behind-the-scenes look at the Royal Family and their likes, dislikes and funny quirks. While he started his career at Buckingham Palace, McGrady spent the last four years of his royal service working as a chef for Princess Diana. Sunday, August 31 marks the 28th anniversary of the late royal's death, and McGrady has previously revealed a heartbreaking detail about that tragic day in 1997.
In a 2020 interview with Australian radio station KIIS 106.5 FM (via the Daily Mail), the chef shared what it was like learning his boss had died in a car crash. "I was there, I had the food for dinner waiting for her to return," he said. "It was a horrible, horrible time."
