Princess Margaret's decadent daily routine, which includes an afternoon 'vodka pick-me-up', an hour-long bath and a four-course lunch with the Queen Mother, has been hailed as 'inspiring'

Princess Margaret's decadent daily routine has sent royal fans wild after it resurfaced on social media.

A glimpse of the late royal's decadent schedule has been shared several times on X/Twitter in recent days, leaving people in awe of her luxurious lifestyle and aspiring to emulate the routine in their own lives.

The routine, which involved sleeping in for two hours after waking up at 9am and having a small drink of vodka once midday arrived, has proven incredibly popular with X users.

Some even joke that the royal family's routine, which she is believed to have followed throughout her 20s, has surpassed MasterChef judge Gregg Wallace, who sent the internet into meltdown last week with his account of a typical Saturday.

Princess Margaret's average day, recorded around 1955, originally appeared in Ma'am Darling: 99 Glimpses of Princess Margaret, written by Craig Brown.

The book explains how Princess Margaret, aged around 25, began developing a luxurious routine that reflected her taste for the finer things in life.

The day started with a meal brought to her in bed. It is believed that she lived with her mother, the Queen Mother, at Clarence House at the time.

She then spent two hours listening to the radio and reading the newspapers while chain smoking, often leaving the papers scattered on the floor.

At 11am, Margaret would take an hour-long bath, prepared for her by a maid, before having her hair and make-up done in her dresser.

The Royal Family's lunches included continental cheese, a selection of fruit and a bottle of wine shared with the Queen Mother

The book continues, “As you might imagine of a princess, she never wore her clothes more than once before being cleaned.”

Exhausted from the morning, Margaret headed downstairs for a 'vodka pick-me-up' before a four-course lunch with the Queen Mother.

It is said that the average lunch consisted of 'half a bottle of wine per person plus 'fruit and half a dozen different types of native and continental cheeses.'

The clip first appeared online in 2017 when it was posted to X/Twitter by an adoring fan.

However, it has resurfaced after being reposted on Sunday, with the caption: “I think we can agree that the late Princess Margaret's daily routine is the one we all aspire to.”

Reacting to the scheme, people showed their admiration for the princess and her relaxed lifestyle.

One person said: 'Princess Margaret walked so Gregg Wallace could run.'

Another, also referring to the MasterChef judges' Saturday morning routine that starts at 5am, joked: “None of this coming to the gym half an hour before opening,” referring to Gregg's very early start at the weekend.

One reader desperate to establish routine in their own life said, “I aspire to live like this. I am an aristocrat, trapped in the body of a peasant.'

In yet more references to Gregg's Saturday morning routine, some asked when Princess Margaret managed to fit in a trip to Harvester (where the MasterChef judge has breakfast) or a session with Total War.

Most readers were in awe of the late royal's routine, declaring that they aspired to “be more Princess Margaret” and describing her as “inspirational.”

The Princess, Queen Elizabeth's younger sister, was known to smoke up to 60 strong Chesterfield cigarettes a day, chain-smoked between courses during meals, and drank Famous Grouse whiskey heavily at home.

Although her tastes sometimes ran to gin and tonic or a glass of wine, her favorite drink was whiskey – especially Famous Grouse with a splash of water.

Margaret would have quickly noticed if a different brand of whiskey had been poured into her glass, and would have refused to drink it.

She also insisted that only Malvern Water was acceptable as a mixer.

In his controversial biography, Margaret – The Untold Story, Noel Botham said that in the 1950s there was always a decanter of Grouse on the drinks tray in Margaret's apartment at Clarence House, and that she would have a drink before heading out for a night out. .

The Margaret Set was often invited after a night out on the town, but while the champagne was flowing, she preferred her favorite whiskey and water – 'it was the only drink she really enjoyed in the evening', Botham wrote.

The hosts were made aware that Famous Grouse and Malvern Water should always be available to her, whatever the time, place or occasion.
