15 Strict Rules Royal Couples Have to Follow

The Royal family may be able to break laws the rest of the world have to follow, but there are some rules and traditions they have follow, that commoners are either oblivious to or don’t even have to consider. Most of these rules come down to how these Royal couples conduct themselves in public and while doing their official duties, and especially in the presence of her majesty, the Queen.

And in that case, some rules make sense. Like the rule against public displays of affection, because who really wants to see the Royal family being overly affectionate while they’re at work. Of course, in more relaxed settings, they have been known to break this rule. Like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle always holding hands or Prince William and Kate Middleton sharing a rare kiss.

There’s also the dress code rule. There have been a number of controversial fashion moment for the women in the Royal family. To us may seem silly but, to the traditions of the royal family, are a big deal.
There are some other rules which seem a little outdated, like the fact that Queen had final say on who her grandchildren and children married. If she didn’t like them, by decree she could veto the union. Or the fact that the Queen approves all Royal wedding dresses before the big day just to make sure they keep with Royal protocols and dress codes.

This list of rules for Royal may seem like a lot, but these Royal couples are often breaking them. Sometimes rules are made to be broken. Let us know in the comments below, which rule was most surprising to you. Also be sure to like, share and subscribe to The Things Celebrity for more on your favourite celeb news.

Just thinking that the only one who has never ever broken these rules has been reigning for 70 years and is still the most beloved Royal in the United Kingdom...

[susantslbry]

I love the tradition ❤the class and respect! Simply beautiful 👑

[debrizzuto]

They can do what they want in the privacy of their own room. Something to look forward too!😉

[sharondavis]

The Royals have broken most of these rules.

[deukieszone]

princess diana’s revenge dress was and still is sooo iconic.
Im glad she broke the rule

[cookamateur]

I think, being show affectionate by modern age royals is not an issue at all as long as they are married.

[elmienliebenberg]

We can forgive the revenge dress! It was stunning, and you know...called

[jimmaworkurgessa]

I like their rule and the way they dress, talk, walk and so on.

[zarteirs]

Meghan wants to have a royal wedding but still don't want to be in a royal family 🤭 lol

[celebvillage]

Am I the only one that thinks some of these rules are utter nonsense?

[Ariverse_]

No nicknames, selfies, dating out of radar, saying "yes" to all dresses, to be always behind the queen... I mean what the heck is all these?!! We're living in 2022 not in 16th century

[Beccinams]

Diana did not borrow her tiara. It is actually a tiara owned by her family.

[caro]

William should be king 😊 not the Dad !

[gregorycarlson]

What’s PDA?? Probably a dumb question, but somebody help me out here. Is it “Public Displays of Affection “??🤔

[luxuryhub]

the rule against public displays of affection, its probably infringes on their fundamental human right

[jeledarichardson]

Someone forgot to tell charles, he couldn't cheat after marriage

[skreety]

Unless they're in Paris or the Riviera .

[berniceanaya]

Princess Diana never borrowed a tiara from the queen on her wedding day, she wore her families tiara (The Spencer tiara). She did borrow a tiara from the queen, but she was also given a tiara from the queen as a wedding gift but when she got a divorce from Charles she had to give it back to the queen.

[retired]

William and Kate seem OK with following the royal rules. After all, he is next in line for the throne. They are already teaching George and Charlotte the rules; they act like little robots already. Harry & Megan don't want to follow the rules so they exited.

[teresareichek]

Princess Diana did not borrow a tiara from the Queen. She wore the Spencer family tiara.
