The late Diana, Princess of Wales, once had her hairdresser “smuggle” tabloids into the Palace while she was a member of the Royal Family.
Richard Dalton, Princess Diana’s longtime hairdresser, revealed that she secretly arranged for tabloids to be brought inside Kensington Palace for her perusal.
In an interview with People magazine, Mr. Dalton shared, “One of the hairdressers smuggled them in. Did I say that? They were smuggled in, but it’s not to do with me.”
He further added: “She used to say, ‘Richard, can you bring them in for me?’ Nobody questioned it because nobody knew. Once I’d got through security and into the pantry, it was all plain sailing from there.”
Dalton, who first met Diana in 1978, served as her official hairdresser from 1981 to 1990.
According to him, one of the tabloid rumors that deeply affected Diana involved speculation about the paternity of her youngest son, Prince Harry.
“They always [went] on about, ‘Is Charles the father of Harry?'” Dalton recalls of the tabloid chatter surrounding King Charles (then Prince Charles). “Of course he is.”
He also noted: “Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer, when I used to cut his hair, his hair was bright red. Lady Sarah, also red. The Spencers definitely had red hair. But at that time, I wasn’t in a position to actually say, ‘Hello, Charles Spencer’s hair was red.'”.

Dalton has been reminiscing about his experiences with the late princess, encouraged by his friend Renae Plant.
As the founder of The Princess Diana Museum, she has dedicated herself to preserving Diana’s legacy.
Plant unveiled the virtual Princess Diana Museum in 2019, which boasts a collection of over 2,700 personal and historical items belonging to Diana.
The collection is set to have its first physical exhibition in Los Angeles, California, come November 2026.
After a six-month stint, it will embark on a US tour before heading to Canada, parts of Asia, Australia, and eventually Europe. Her ultimate goal is for the museum to find a permanent home in the UK as a tribute to Diana.
In the early morning hours of August 31, 1997, Diana tragically passed away due to injuries from a car accident in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel in Paris, France, earlier that evening.
