12 Weird And Surprising Rules That The Royal Children Have To Follow

By Vishnu Sharma, 16 January 2018

The royal family of Britain is one of the most known families of the world and we all want to know all about each member of the family. And when the royal kids are as adorable as Prince George and Princess Charlotte, we certainly would like to know what kind of lives they live now and what all might happen when they grow up. One of the things that everyone believes is that the royal kids have amazing lives and they can do whatever they feel like. But contrary to this, they are actually supposed to follow many rules and traditions, which have been followed by the royal children since ages. Take a look at some of these rules, some of which are annoying and some of which actually make sense.

1There is a proper dress code

In all of the outings of the Prince and Princess, we have always seen them wearing proper dresses which are in accordance with the dress code of the Royal family. Never has anyone seen Princess Charlotte in a Barbie-themed dress or Prince George wearing a Superhero T-shirt, and the reason is very simple. The members of the Royal Family are supposed to follow a certain dress code when they step out in public. Prince George always wears shorts, and this will continue till he turns eight, when he will start wearing pants. Whereas Princess Charlotte is always seen wearing a dress along with a cardigan.

2They have no nicknames

None of the members of the Royal Family are allowed to have a nickname. Whether this is true in the confines of their homes or not, we are not so sure about that, but when to be addressed in public, full names are taken by people around them.

3Everyone in the family must stop eating when the Queen does

We all know that we must respect our elders, and for the royal children if the elder is the Queen of England, then they need to respect her in every sense of the term. When the Royal Family sits for a meal together, they can only eat till the time Queen is eating, and when she stops eating everyone must follow her lead and do the same, regardless of the fact that they are done or not. Though this rule may seem a little annoying, but it is there in place and everybody is supposed to follow it.

4They must learn multiple languages

When one is the member of the Royal family, that person is known around the world and has to travel to a lot of different countries. In such a scenario, it makes much more sense if the royal kid is able to talk to people in their language. So, the royal children are supposed to learn multiple languages from a very young age. Now be ready for the surprise- Prince George and Princess Charlotte have already started learning Spanish at this young age.

5Selfies are not allowed

This rule actually goes for every member of the Royal family. None of them are allowed to be present in a selfie, whether taken by them or by someone else. So, if you get lucky enough to meet any member of the royal family, then don’t even bother to ask for a selfie, because the answer is going to be a NO. Currently, Prince George and Princess Charlotte are quite young, but when they get older they will not be allowed to take selfies much like their friends and that will certainly make them feel bad.

6No presents on Christmas Day

This rule is actually like a perk of being a royal child, because like other kids they don’t get to open up their presents on the Christmas morning. In fact, they open their gifts on Christmas Eve, so they don’t wait like the other kids. Santa surely comes to the Palace early!

7They should have their protection

When you are part of the royal family, you are supposed to be one of the most important people on this Earth and that makes it mandatory for you to be protected at all times. The Queen has the royal guards around her and her family who are forever present to protect them all. Currently, Prince George and Princess Charlotte may not feel weird about it, but when they grow up to be teenagers and would want to enjoy their private time, that is when the problem might arise, but then they would still not be able to say anything, because a rule is a rule.

8They must speak properly and have good etiquettes

All royal children are supposed to learn how to speak properly to people around them. They must have proper manners, whether it is the table etiquettes or the way they speak, act or behave in public. And all this is something which is taught to them from a very young age.

9No tiaras till you’re married

We may feel and believe that a princess doesn’t look like one without a tiara, but according to this rule a princess cannot wear a tiara till she gets married. So, Princess Charlotte is not going to wear a pretty tiara till she becomes a married woman.

10Two heirs cannot travel together

This rule states that when the members of the royal family are traveling, two heirs to the throne cannot be together. You might be confused because we all have seen Prince George traveling with his father, but this is only till he turns 12. After that, the little Prince will not be able to travel with his father. This is one of the biggest rules of the royal family and it has been enforced so that if there is an accident of some sorts, then at least one of the heirs is still safe.

11They cannot play monopoly

The game which makes families and friends argue is not allowed. And the reason is quite simple; the royal family doesn’t want the kids to get into a useless fight because of a silly board game.

12They must accept all gifts graciously

The royal kids get gifts from around the world, and the one thing they must remember while receiving presents is that they should accept anything and everything with a smile. So, if they get a very ugly teddy or even an alligator, they must take it graciously.
