Princess Diana’s Royal Chef remarks on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle leaving UK

The Royal Chef of Princess Diana said she would never have “moved away” like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Chef Darren McGrady, who worked for Princess Diana, believes the late royal would not have left the nation in 2020 as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did.

McGrady expressed grief at the Sussexes’ departure in an interview with Coffee Friend. The whole interview was sent to Marie Claire through email.

“I think the whole world was surprised, not just me,” McGrady said. “It was definitely a shock. It was sad for me being a royalist, having worked for the family for 15 years, having seen the boys play together and how close they were. Princess Diana would have been sad that their boys don’t have the same relationship now.”

This argument holds up under scrutiny: Andrew Morton, the late princess’ biographer, had stated that “she envisioned Harry as the wingman for William in what would eventually be a very solitary, melancholy task as future king.”

McGrady went on, “Would she have been overjoyed that Harry was leaving the royal service? She recognized that the Queen came first, and I don’t think she ever did anything to disrespect the Queen.

“She would have never had moved away, that is pure because of her boys. She would never have moved to another country and left her young boys in the U.K. She’d grown up with her parents separated. There’s no way she would have abandoned her children. Would she have had a place in Malibu? I think so, she’d have had a beach house. Yeah absolutely.”
