The Princess of Wales’ special lessons are said to have taken place before she married Prince William in April 2011 and are thought to have been instructed by the late Queen Elizabeth II
When it comes to being a member of the Royal Family, there are countless rules and customs that you have to meet. While those who have been born into the family have a head start, the people who marry in are also required to conduct themselves in a certain way.
Whether it is how to bend down in public or how to step out of a carriage, there are many rules to follow – and it would appear that when it came to the Princess of Wales‘ introduction into the Firm almost 14 years ago, her instruction came directly from the late Queen herself.
Ahead of the Prince and Princess of Wales wedding in April 2011, Kate was said to have been given lessons from her future grandmother-in-law about her role and how she was expected to act.
You may not realise how many important rules the female members of The Royal Family have to follow so as to protect their dignity when they are out and about in public.
While there are also restrictions placed on other areas of royal life – such as not posing for selfies or signing autographs – it is issues around clothing and conduct that require specific lessons.
