Princess Diana’s Surprising Bond with Butlers and Drivers: Why She Treated Them Like Family!

Princess Diana is lauded for her simplicity and generosity towards staff

Princess Diana’s heartfelt relationship with her staff is laid bare by former employees.

Speaking about how the former Princess of Wales wanted to support her staff, Royal protection officer Ken Wharfe and Diana and Charles’ former head chef Mervyn Wycherley speak to The Sun.

Mervyn told the show: “Well, I was very lucky. I’d worked with Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth before for ten years, and I transferred over on for the honeymoon.

“I became their head chef on that day and stayed with them for all their married life.

“We were very small staff in those days. There was a dresser, two policemen, private secretary and everybody travels with them and and of course – 250 sailors.

“So it was a very private honeymoon.”

He added: “They’re funny. The food is quite simplistic.

“They love simple foods, but always very good quality foods and very organic, and it’s always been the same, that all of the family have an interest in food, especially His Royal Highness.

“Well, to the King now he’s very, very interested in his food and enjoys having a putting it all in and with menus and all sorts of things.”

Meanwhile, Ken told the show: “Mervyn would write out a week at a time suggestions for both the prince and the princess at that time.

“But very often, the princess would come in and sit in the kitchen with you and whatever you’d written down in the book, you’d knock it up in the kitchen and she would eat it.

“So it was quite an informal meeting really. But I think that was the whole thing about Kensington Palace, certainly from the mid 80s onwards.

“[Diana] always wanted the chef, the driver to be part of this wider family.”
