Queen’s bra fitter loses royal warrant after publishing book

THE company which supplied lingerie to the Queen has lost its royal warrant after the firm’s director wrote a book revealing details of her work with the Royal Family.

Rigby & Peller had held the warrant since 1960, but said it was “deeply saddened” by the Royal Household Warrants Committee’s decision to cancel it.

June Kenton, director of the London-based firm, published Storm In A D Cup in March last year.

It is not clear if the two events are linked. Mrs Kenton regularly visited Buckingham Palace and served members of the Royal Family, including the Queen, the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret, and her autobiography provided some detail about her working relationship with them.

Rigby & Peller said in a statement: “Rigby & Peller is deeply saddened by this decision and is not able to elaborate further on the cancellation out of respect for Her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Warrant Holders Association.

Buckingham Palace said it did not “comment on individual companies”.
