All The Times Princess Diana Played By Her Own Rules

Diana missed the memo

Every year, the royal family gathers at the Queen’s Sandringham Estate for Christmas and they have a rule that the gifts they present to each other must be funny. Apparently, it was something started by jokester Prince Philip but when Diana joined in the festivities in 1981, she didn’t get the memo about the funny gifts.

She ended up playing it safe and gifted Princess Anne with a cashmere sweater and in return, she got a toilet paper cover from Anne.
