11 Weirdest Royal Family Rules
From strange eating restrictions to odd dressing traditions.
Today we commoners choose to follow or turn a blind eye to the family traditions passed on to us, but the latter is not an option for Royals. They have to adhere to some weird rules many of which are rooted in history.
From specific eating habits to dressing, some dark customs have been practiced for ages. Let’s see the list of such peculiarities.
