Apparently Princess Diana was actually a really terrible cook
Who knew?
Who knew?
While a lot of people are very fond of their mum's cooking, it doesn't sound like William and Harry are among them.
Princess Diana's former head chef, Darren McGrady, has opened up about about her cooking skills – and it appears she didn't really have any.
'She couldn't cook; the Princess was a terrible cook, she really was,' he told HELLO! Online. 'I would actually leave food for her.
'I worked Monday to Friday and I'd leave food in the refrigerator for the weekend, like stuffed peppers, she loved those for a weekend lunch.'
As well as preparing the food, McGrady would even have to leave instructions for how to re-heat the meals too.
'I actually put cling film on with a little sticky note with a number two on it, and that told her to put it in the microwave and press two. That's how bad she was at cooking!
'When the boys were home I'd stay there and cook on weekends two but if it was just the Princess, I'd have weekends off and leave food for her.'
We never would have guessed that Diana was such a terrible cook.
At least she wasn't binging on endless takeaways when her chef was away...
