‘Princess Diarist was the last profesh(ish) thing my momby and I got to do together,’ she lamented. 

‘I wish she was here to carry me down the red carpet in some bizarre floral ensemble but instead we’ll celebrate in true Carrie style: in bed in front of the TV over cold Coca Colas and warm e cigs. I’m beyond proud. @recordingacademy,’ she went on to enthuse.

Princess Diarist was penned by Fisher after she unearthed old diaries she wrote while shooting Star Wars, which saw her portray the now-iconic Princess Leia.
