Speaking with Shane, Ruthie boldly said: ‘You performed in Buckingham Palace, you sang in the gardens, I sh****d in the bedrooms.’

Clearly piquing Shane’s interest, the two then settled into his hammock and Ruthie divulged some of her best tales from dating Prince Edward. 

Ruthie then revealed that she had been to Windsor and Balmoral, the Queen’s estate in Scotland, with her ex – and even ended up performing for the family.  

She said: ‘He invited me to Windsor for the weekend as we’re walking I’m seeing a table outside and there’s people sitting round it and I’m thinking that looks like the Queen and I remembered my dad had said to me that if you ever meet the Queen he said you curtsy and call her ma’am.

‘I grab her hand like this [handshake], forget all about the curtsy and I’m like really really pleased to meet you, really pleased to meet you.’

Enjoying the revelations, Shane then asked: ‘Did you know Diana much?’ 

Ruthie replied: ‘I met her a couple of times and one of my favourite times was we were at Balmoral, there was Diana, The Queen, Margaret, the Queen Mother, Charles, Edward, myself.’ 

She added that Diana was ‘lovely’, however she doesn’t ‘remember an awful lot because Charles gave me my first martini.’

‘I’d never tried it before so I was fairly… I had two of them and I was like woah…’, said Ruthie prompting Shane to tease: ‘Don’t tell me you go into show tunes’.

‘Let me tell you. Margaret she goes “yes, yes, oh sing us a song from that show you’re in” and I was in Les Mis at the time. So I sang I Dreamed A Dream and I must have changed key three times because I was so p****d on martinis.’

Ruthie also reflected on how she met Edward during the insightful conversation.

She said: ‘It’s funny, it’s such a long time ago.. [he’s a] Lovely bloke. And I genuinely fell in love with him.

‘He was a production assistant at Andrew Lloyd Webber’s. And he then called me himself [Andrew] and he wanted me to play the lead in A Star Is Born. And Edward was my point of contact.

‘He was the one who’d call me up and say you’re rehearsing at 2 o’clock or whatever. And he said to me would you like to come to mine and watch the film of A Star Is Born with me and you can have some dinner. I was like what, at the Palace, is that where you live?’

Shane said: ‘Is that what he meant? God that is so weird. Watching A Star Is Born with Prince Edward.’ Later he joked ‘Her first date was to Buckingham Palace. Can you believe that? Blimey, my first date was Little Chef.’

Shane continued. ‘So when did you think we’re going to do jiggy boom boom? We’re going to do jiggy boom boom soon. I’m going to be new queen of England.’

‘No’ protested Ruthie.
