Removed from the office door of their Royal Highnesses, The Prince & Princess of Wales, after their divorce.

Being a Princess and part of the Royal Family is too much work for one person to do all alone.  The Royal Court Gallery explores Diana’s relationship with those who worked for her dubbed The “A” Team.  These include Mervyn Wycherley (Head Chef), Ken Wharf (Bodyguard), Reginald Wilcock (the Queen Mother’s under-butler) and Peter Settelen (Diana’s voice coach who conducted her most personal interview ever). 

​

Richard Dalton was Princess Diana’s hairdresser for over 12 years and was involved with of all of her iconic hairdos. He traveled the globe with her to ensure Diana was “princess-ready” at all times.

​

We are fortunate to know Richard Dalton and are super-excited that he has contributed  to our museum by sharing some of his most memorable moments with Princess Diana to preserve for all time.
