She Offended Princess Margaret
Her 1979 album called ‘Living Without Your Love’ remains a fan favorite, but her tour that year led to an unexpected problem with a princess. She played a concert at the Royal Albert Hall, and Princess Margaret was in attendance. But Dusty created a buzz during some of her onstage chat, albeit quite innocently. She made a rather inappropriate joke… in front of the royal family of all people.
Duty made a joke about the large number of gay people that she noticed at the concert, and said that she was glad royalty wasn’t “confined to the box.” Princess Margaret was personally insulted, and Dusty was absolutely mortified. She was later sent a typewritten message from the princess, which Dusty was made to sign and return.
