Princess Diana Didn’t Want Queen Elizabeth’s Corgis Anywhere Near Her—Here’s Why

Queen Elizabeth II’s beloved corgis and Princess Diana were not besties. The reason,

according to Diana’s former hairstylist, had to do with part of her beauty routine—her fake tan. Ahead, what Diana said when a corgi came near here

Diana’s longtime hairstylist, Richard Dalton, shared a funny story about her and the queen’s corgis while promoting his new book, It’s All About the Hair—My Decade with Diana, which he wrote with friend Renae Plant, curator of The Princess Diana Museum

Using it as an example of her “amazing, wicked sense of humor,” he told People that Diana didn’t want to cross paths with the queen’s corgis.

“I was patting it, as I love dogs, when Diana came up, and the corgi started to lick her legs,” he recalled. When he told Diana it was the queen’s dog, she “replied with a laugh, ‘Well, get it out of here, as it’s licking all the fake suntan off my legs.
