Princess Diana relished this food during ‘lonely’ hours

Princess Diana‘s favourite meal of the day has been spilt by a formal butler.

The former Prince of Wales, who passed away in a car accident in Paris 1997, loved herself jacket potatoes with some caviar.

In his book A Royal Duty, former royal butler Paul Burrell reveals he often served Diana her favourite dish.

"If she had been out...I would make her a cup of her favorite ginger root tea," Burrell shared.

The royal butler continued: "Dinner would be grilled trout or a pasta dish; or a plain [baked] potato with a scoop of caviar, served with a vinaigrette dressing."

Burrell explained: "It was often a solitary meal, served on a wheeled wooden trolley that I pushed into the sitting room before the striped sofa where the princess sat in her white toweling robe."

Burrell added: "I had already pulled the television out of its cabinet at the bottom of the bookcase and into position. Evenings were the loneliest, quietest times for the princess. The chef had gone. Her dresser had gone."

Burrell then revealed he spent a lot of time with Princess in order to give her company.
