Jamie Lee Curtis Reveals a Bathroom Break Stopped Her From Meeting Princess Diana

Jamie Lee Curtis just shared a story of how she would have met Princess Diana, if not for a pee break.

The 64-year-old True Lies actor said it happened when shooting Fierce Creatures in London in 1995.

“We had been told that day that Princess Diana and her children were going to come visit and I admired her so much,” she said.

“We shot all morning, and when we took a tea break, for me, it was a pee break, I jumped in a golf cart and drove the two miles back to the dressing room. I’m in my dressing room peeing when there was a pounding on the door, ‘Princess Diana is here!’,” she told Apple Fitness+ Time to Walk.

But by the time she got back, Princess Diana and her children were already gone. So, Jamie wrote her a note.

“It said, ‘I’m so sorry we didn’t get to meet. I was very much looking forward to it as I admire you greatly. Unfortunately, nature called, and they don’t give me many breaks, so I chose nature over you, not knowing that you were going to arrive right at that moment. I’m so sorry and just think you’re great. My best wishes, Jamie,’” she said.

“The next day, I got a letter delivered from Kensington Palace from Her Royal Highness Princess Diana, saying, ‘I’m so sorry I didn’t get to meet you, also. I admire you, and I totally understand when nature calls. Of course you should choose that. I hope that we will have an opportunity in our lives to meet. Best wishes always.’ It was just a beautiful letter, which I still have,” Jamie said.
