The Golden Girls was a famous 80s sitcom about four elder women having fun in Miami, and the main cast was Betty White, Beatrice Arthur, Rue McClanahan, and Estelle Getty. The royal family loved the show, starting from The Queen Mother and prolonging to Princess Diana.
Jayne Fincher talked about Princess Diana’s wit to Daily Mail, “She had a great sense of humor and was very good at remembering jokes. She always had a joke up her sleeve, and she used to tell quite a few dirty ones.
She had a really funny laugh too, it came right from her stomach. Once she saw something funny, she was off — that was quite incredible at the time because royals did not do that.”
Princess Diana enjoyed the show alongside Freddie Mercury, Queen frontman, and Cleo Rocos revealed how they watched the show. “The group spent the afternoon drinking champagne in front of reruns of The Golden Girls with the sound turned down and improvising show dialogue with a much naughtier storyline. After asking about the group’s plans that night, Diana, “in full mischief mode,” insisted on joining.”
