All members of the royal family must follow strict rules of conduct, including royal children George, Charlotte and Louis. Despite their young age, for them there is also a label that dictates everything in their lives. From what they can eat to where they can go, from how they should dress to who they can or cannot talk to.
We have collected for you all the rules that George, Charlotte and Louis must follow as they are part of the royal family protocol.
As children, boys should wear shorts instead of long pants, even in winter
If you've ever wondered why Princes George and Louis always wear shorts even in winter, here's why.
This is not a style preference. Royal etiquette dictates that long trousers are exclusive to older boys and grown men.
George, Charlotte and Louis can't keep the gifts they receive
As children of the royal family, the three children are not allowed to keep most of the gifts they receive, as all gifts are received on behalf of the Queen, or King.
This means it is unlikely that Prince George was allowed to keep any of the 774 gifts he received in the year of his birth. The same goes for Charlotte and Louis.
Meetings with foreign leaders are prohibited (with some exceptions)
The photo of Prince George meeting former US President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama in 2016 made history. However, in this case, the little royal broke protocol, as meetings with world leaders and foreign dignitaries are usually forbidden for children.
George, Charlotte and Louis must learn a second language
Although there is no official rule requiring royal children to learn a second language, it is part of the Windsor family tradition. For example, King Charles, in addition to English, is fluent in French and German.
Princess Charlotte, on the other hand, was able to speak English and Spanish at the age of two, thanks to her nanny Maria Turrion Borralo, who hails from Spain.
They should be taught manners
If George, Charlotte and Louis always seem polite when in public, it is because they are required to undergo etiquette lessons.
During these lessons, children are said to learn appropriate voice levels, as well as how to behave formally at the dinner table and attend formal events.
They must bow to the reigning monarch
Like any other member of the royal family, the princes are expected to follow protocol when greeting the monarch.
According to royal experts, protocol requires royal children to bow to the king (or queen) starting when they turn five.
George, Charlotte and Louis cannot eat packaged food
The diet of royal adults is subject to many rules and restrictions, and the same applies to children.
George, Charlotte and Louis are prohibited from consuming packaged or processed foods. There are no snacks or pre-packaged meals, and the children even have private chefs at their disposal who ensure that all their meals are prepared with care.
The heirs to the throne must never travel together
Royal protocol stating that the heirs to the throne are prohibited from traveling together. However, this is a rule that Prince William and Kate Middleton often break. In fact, there are several occasions when Prince William and his firstborn, Prince George, have traveled together on the same plane.
However, to do so, the family must always obtain permission from the reigning monarch, who always has the final say. (A2 Televizion)
