Princess Diana’s Royal chef pays tribute to her ‘adoring’ relationship with George Michael
Darren McGrady took to Twitter to pay tribute to the late singer
PRINCESS Diana's former Royal chef has paid tribute to their relationship.
Taking to twitter, Darren McGrady shared tales of how much the late Princess and singer “adored” each other.
It was well known that the Careless Whisper star, who passed away on Christmas Day, was friends with Di, who died in 1997.
But her chef, who also cooked for the Queen and Princes William and Harry, has given a real insight into how much she loved her favourite singer.
He tweeted: "RIP @GeorgeMichael You made me laugh out loud when you came for lunch with Princess Diana at Kensington Palace. She adored you.”
He then added: "Always knew when #PrincessDiana was in a good mood. @GeorgeMichael music used to belt out around the @KensingtonRoyal courtyard #HappyTimes"
He also said: "Remember #PrincessDiana teasing @GeorgeMichael driving to @KensingtonRoyal with two glossy mags on the front seat, him on the cover. #SoVain"
One of his followers suggested that the friends were back together now, continuing the party.
They wrote: "Hopefully they'll be having a good old boogy up there now"
George passed away on Sunday aged 53.
His publicist said in a statement: "The family and close friends of George have been touched beyond words by the incredible outpouring of love for him in the hours and days since his death.
"For someone whose life was ultimately about his music and the love he had for his family and friends, his fans and the world at large, there could be no more fitting tribute than the many, many, kind words that have been said and the numerous plays his records have received.
"Contrary to some reports, there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding his death, and from the bottom of our hearts we thank those who, rightly, have chosen to celebrate his life and legacy at this most distressing of times."
The statement comes after George's partner Fadi Fawaz revealed he found the singer dead at his home in Oxfordshire when he went to wake him up on Christmas morning.
Writing on Twitter, he said: "ITs a xmas i will never forget finding your partner dead peacefully in bed first thing in the morning.. I will never stop missing you xx (sic)"
