Diana also had a regular bedroom on the Royal Yacht Britannia, which she used for her usual stays on the boat. It has cream walls and two windows with floral curtains. There are two bedside tables, on one of which Diana kept a framed photo of herself and Prince Charles.

Diana moved into Apartments 8 and 9 in Kensington Palace with Prince Charles after the couple tied the knot. She kept several framed photos of herself and her sons Prince William and Prince Harry hanging on one wall.

She also had a yellow sofa holding countless soft toys which, no doubt, were for her sons.

Diana got ready in her bedroom with a dressing table at the window. It featured a glass top with two side lamps, an oval-shaped mirror and a wooden chair. She also displayed yet more portraits of her sons on one wall, as well as other pieces of artwork. The windows had green checked and floral curtains.
