When picturing how Queen Elizabeth started off her royal morning, one might imagine a full English breakfast, Eggs Benedict or at the very least a hearty omelet. But according to former royal chef Darren McGrady, the late monarch—whose values were shaped by her World War II upbringing—preferred a surprisingly normal, no-fuss start to her day.
Speaking on behalf of Heart Bingo, McGrady revealed that the late Queen "was very strict and disciplined" about meal times. "Contrary to popular belief, she never called for food at odd hours," he said. "They had set meals, and if they wanted something in between, there was always fruit or chocolates in their rooms."
