These Are The Only People Who Can Visit The Queen Uninvited

- Опубліковано 9 лют 2022
- What a dream it must be to meet Queen Elizabeth II. Such an honor is highly unlikely for most people, but for those who are fortunate enough to be in Her Majesty’s presence, it must truly be special. Of course, as one might expect, there are rules you must follow if you ever meet the Queen. But do these rules apply to everyone?
People can’t just drop in to greet the Queen whenever they please. But what about her family and those in her inner circle? Are they able to stop by for a surprise visit? These are the only people who can visit the Queen uninvited.

What are your thoughts on this rule?
These rules are outdated

Awesome, I would just put that "I'm sleeping" door tag and just not talk to anyone

My late dad was on duty at Balmoral Castle in Scotland during the 1950’s, when he served in the Gordon Highlanders. He attended a ball while there with the royals in residence. Apparently you cannot ask them for a dance, they have to request it….first he danced with princess margaret, the queens sister, followed by a dance with the queen mother. As he told the story, the queen mother told him her daughter’s thought he was very handsome in his kilt, and she was quite inclined to agree……he also had to sign the official secrets act on several occasions, he took those secrets with him…..much to my dismay 😂
That is so neat!
Great story
My great grandfather & my two uncles were Gordon Highlanders!
At least he was discreet, unlike Prince Harry
LMAOOO
It's beside the topic,but I just must say how fantastic she looks when wearing that rich royal dark purple color! It is her best color! She's still an absolutely stunningly beautiful woman!
I AGREE!! IT IS THE BEST COLOR ON THE QUEEN ELIZABETH!! I wished to have met her in person but sadly I wouldn't be able to since I'm CONFINED in powerchair and mostly CONFINED into my hospital bed for the time being!
Totally agree!
I love all the bright colors she wears. She is still a very beautiful lady. Her bright blue eyes are amazing.
I agree beat
A all those light pastels
@@lft4589 , Yes, she can wear any color and be gorgeous. I love her. Great Britain is lucky to have her. I’m a Trump supporter too. It’s good to see you are too.
I had the honour of meeting the queen when she opened a shop in the town centre my mum was working at, my gran has the picture of me handing the queen a flower proudly framed on her wall ❤️
Sweet memory
bullshit story #2
The queen did not frame your flower on your wall grow up stop lying
@@Mybabycase she meant her grans framed a photo of her handing a flower to the queen you twat
Lovely memory Megan…three cheers to your gran…and to you☺️.
Just dropping in unannounced is rude! Even your mother DESERVES advance notice! Call first to make sure she is up to receiving guests - it is THE COURTEOUS, KIND THING TO DO!
With your own MOTHER? Ridiculous.
@@susanboyd5471 Sugarplum, YOU are both ridiculous AND EXTREMELY RUDE.
@@wilhelmkramer2534 who is Sugarplum?
I agree wholeheartedly. I'm sorry most people don't follow this important rule of etiquette.
I don't drop in on my own mother without phoning first and giving plenty of notice. I never have.
A friend was wondering if she could put a discreet sign on her door to indicate whether or not she's receiving visitors. I encouraged her to do so.
Now I'm thinking about getting one myself. I'm annoyed that people feel free to drop by to visit when I'm not expecting them. I don't drop in on others unannounced or unexpected, so I'm perplexed as to why others think it's acceptable to do so. As I feel no obligation to answer the door and almost never do, the real wonder is that they keep coming by, even after I've informed them I don't answer the door unless I'm expecting someone.
The best rule, imo, is to not go to anyone's home unless you are invited. If you want to see someone, invite them to your home, to meet you for a meal or a coffee at a restaurant, or for a walk at a local park.
While I agree it is the kind thing to do to call a friend first, but family??? What distant, formal families you seem to have.
Since I was of a young age my father was senior officer in the military and we lived on a military base. Two or three times a year my parents took me and my brother to the officers' mess on Sundays for multi-course meal, with lots and lots of cutlery / silverware / flatware, and with at least 4 courses. There we were taught how to pull a chair, to sit with good posture, how to lay a napkin, how to spoon soup (you spoon it away from you), how not to stare, how to engage in polite conversation ... and how to respect the waiting staff ... but most of all ... how to enjoy it. It's a privilege that not everyone has.
I wouldn’t exactly say that dining in the Officers Mess is a privilege… I did it for years, and it always ruined my appetite… rules, rules, rules. Ridiculous rules.
Too many pompous jerks DEMANDING respect.
Dammit - my favourite meals were in the Jungle, with my soldiers - dirty and exhausted, cold canned beef and tortellini, with my rifle by my side…
The respect went to Mother Nature and to those who were sent to kill us…
Those pompous jerks in the Officers Mess wouldn’t last 2 minutes in the J.
Do I miss the Jungle - damn straight. Go I miss the Officers Mess - NEGATORY!😎
Thank God for my plain family
I'm sure they're pretty plain behind their closed doors too. 😏
I agree, too complicated
@@ccc4102 No they are not. They have a very strict royal pecking order of bowing and curtseying according to rank. Ghastly nonsense! Archaic and arcane. Very glad I will never have to meet them. Years ago, I witnessed Princess Margaret in the Royal Box at the International Horse Show at Wembley, , she was damn rude to a visiting overseas group of military riders; Totally ignored them when they rode over to salute her. Very unpleasant person with an overrated sense of entitlement; very spoilt and treated people like dirt.
I agree! But everyone's children should be taught the basics!
No screaming, for any reason! When eating out in a public restaurant! If the child won't stop you need to pick him, her, or them! UP! And leave.
CHILDREN should NEVER SIT ON THE TABLE!
ESPECIALLY VHILDEN IN DIAPERS!!! The very thought is nauseating.
Anyone can teach a child etiquette if you start them at a young age. I was able to take my g-children to very nice restaurants even before they were in kindergarten. They were taught to ask politely and to also say thank you. To sit quietly and speak without shouting. We in turn listened and spoke to them.
My granddaughter went on a cruise at 8 months and was dressed formally in a gold silk dress with jewelry, gold tights and matching shoes and behaved like a little lady in the formal dining room, she never made a mess and had perfect manners. Everyone was completely charmed by her. She cruised 2 or 3 times a year for years till Covid hit. We haven’t gone since it occurred.
@@patsmith5947 yes, children of all ages are able to learn. Just takes parents and g -parents to teach them. Watching a well mannered child is to me beautiful.
Children usually know etiquette. Once when I took my daughter to a nice restaurant and it was taking a long time, she started to complain. I told her that on the count of 3 we would yell, "WE WANT FOOD. WE WANT FOOD!" She looked at me in shock and wouldnt repeat that. (Luckily it worked for me at age 3)!
@@alissagonzales735 I agree. Unfortunately,many adults don't practice or even know good manners themselves, so they cannot teach what they don't know.
Only way to live in a civil society is good manners.
I was blessed to be able to see the Queen and wave to the Queen as well above all I was close enough to see the Queen looking straight at me and waving back as the Queen drove past me along with her husband I was a teenager when the Queen came to Philadelphia for the bicentennial in 1976 this is something I will never forget
I had the same thing happen when I was 7 and outside my parents store watching the parade go by. I was waving my Union Jack (my father was British) wearing a period dress. The Queen noticed me and poked Phillip and pointed at me and waved. It was in 1973 for the 300th birthday of Kingston Ontario
@@laurabailey1054 You lucky girl!
Lies again? Special Guest
@@NazriB Why do you say that ??? So very RUDE !!!
You need to get a life....seriously.
most of these are common rules of politeness that we rarely adhere to now. I was taught how to, as a child to act towards adults, table manners, etc. Rules are not meant to be stuffy but rather to put a visitor at ease. Why would Diana have long evenings with the Queen and family other than at Balmoral? She lived at Kensington Place.
Before her wedding she lived in Buckingham Palace.
Probably while all were tumbled in together at Balmoral.
I adore this woman. I would so love to meet her..but know that would never happen. God Bless her and all her years remaining.
You might meet her someday! You never know. It can happen! :)
Hello
Oh that rule that you can’t go to bed before the Queen is ridiculous. When you are young like Diana was and pregnant you get very sleepy and the desire to sleep is overwhelming. As you age you don’t sleep as much all at one time, we take short naps throughout the day and can’t stay down for 8 or 9 hours straight because our bladders won’t allow it. Also pregnant women have to use the bathroom frequently so that disrupts sleep. No wonder we saw Princess Diana fall asleep sitting up, I would have too.
How the queen can stay up to midnight I don't know I am in my late seventy and I could not stay up to that time I would be the one to fall asleep in front of the queen
Over rated...thats what Diana was..except for a goods looks she was ill mannered and indiciplined..Sulking, moaning, complaining and much more...being unfaithful..
@@mohsinsyedain1754 You know her personally did you?
@@mohsinsyedain1754 Charles never had any intention of being faithful.
Not quite true as to going to bed . There are often evening events at the Palace and those can go on till late . Normally you would not leave until the queen leaves but it is acceptable for members of the family to leave earlier or for others who for example have special travel arrangements. The rule is in place to stop one of them just attending for 45 mins and leave like Megan and Harry did at the garden party . As in any household you don’t go to bed before your guests .
Very glad that a lady with a broad American accent is teaching me about my Royal family. 🇬🇧🇺🇲🇬🇧🇺🇲
She seems like a very graceful person. When people have made mistakes she overlooks it.
Many of these rules of etiquette apply in any social situation, such as waiting for signals from one's hostess before sitting, eating etc. and men do not normally offer their hand to shake unless the signal comes from the lady in question. It is a matter of common courtesy.
Agree, except of course some of the more high etiquette involved with dignitaries and seating rules and table settings etc. Of course protection of the Queen is paramount, as well as her time.. which is not her own most days.
Thank you! I was taught manners as well. It’s just proper and being courteous. Courtesy will go a long way 😉
This woman has dedicated her life , I would love to ask her a question and that would be, have you ever thought about doing something else I'm sure her answer would be no, I have so much respect for you my Queen
Even if she ever thought of it, she wouldn't ever even be able to say that thought out loud..let alone pursue it. Especially in the era in which she ascended.
Yes, she has said if she wasn’t Queen she’d have worked with horses.
@@christinasophiapaterno9022 -- to put a sharper point on what the Queen said, she'd 😅have liked to have been a country woman, with her horses and whatnot. Meaning, married to an aristocrat such as Philip, or a duke or earl with some money, and their country estate,with children, some social circle activities, etc. She had enjoyed simpler life on Malta as a sample in part.
I wish people would drop the whole situation of Michelle and the arm around thing. It happened. Wasn’t intentional. (They clearly have respect/affection for one another.) The Queen was born the same year as my Grandmother. She passed away in 91. The Queen has lived a long life and seen many changes. Weathered many storms. She has met 13 U.S. Presidents. Pretty impressive. She is a link to our past. She has my respect.
The Queen is a beautiful blessing to her country and the world for that matter. But it doesn't surprise at all that M.O. would either not know the rules, or choose to ignore them. After all, she thinks she's special.
13 US presidents is impressive as many are in office 8 years. I wonder what she really thinks of those we’ve elected lol. I sure know what I think!! She can’t be overly impressed with several of those men and I bet she wonders why she’s not yet met a female US president! We haven’t even had any run that I . As a women would vote for. Then again the men have made me toss the vote to the 3rd party several times 😂😂😂 I sure hope she’s found some peace in losing her husband. He may have been a prince but to her he was just her husband and they were married for soooo long. I honestly can’t imagine what a loss like that feels like. She had a very difficult 2021 so this American wishes her a blessed and happy 2022.
@@paulettemann4107 And haters can always be depended on to hate. That was a mistake which the Queen quickly forgave as she also put her arm around Mrs. Obama and Buckingham Palace officially communicated that it had been no big deal when the media got so excited about it.
Such impossibly high standards for never, ever, being allowed to make a mistake for those you can't stand, while having no standards at all for and ignoring the terminal rudeness and boorishness of National Embarrassments like 45, who showed up late and walked in front of Her Majesty.
Why not, for once, just once, give it a rest?
@@paulettemann4107
Still, orange guy's gaff, when he walked in front of the Queen, was much worse! So leave Michelle alone!
I agree. It was affectionate and harmless. Trump on the other hand barged in front of her.
As teenagers, we always asked our parents to respect our privacy and knock the bloody door before walking in! It is within reason and fairness that we treat our parents the way we want to be treated. Aside from the fact she is a royal people regardless should respect her privacy.
Umm it’s not your house you don’t pay your parents can bloody well enter whenever and however they want you do not rent or own the room
@@Mybabycase Just no, your kids need and deserve their privacy and they most certainly should be respected as the individual human beings they are or they will go out on the world testing people without respect and boundaries.
@@Mybabycase well said
@@carinalindberg7377 Funny because I still respect people's boundaries even though my parents entered my room without knocking first. Its their house after all. Thank God that teenagers in my country are generally modest and respect their parents. Unlike teenagers in west
@@GodisMyNo1 Funny, because clearly you don't respect your children so clearly your don't understand respect.
Well, we have our traditions in the U.S. , so if you go to another Country for a visit, you have to respect their traditions. I would be so nervous meeting the Queen, I would probably get all this wrong anyway.
You really wouldn't mess things up. Her Majesty is a very approachable person who is extremely experienced with people who are simply nervous.
She dead
@@Mybabycase Not a nice thing to say. Good grief. Yes, she is and now they have a King. That means they will pretty much have the same traditions, etc when the Queen was here. I am done with mean, disrespect people.
The meeting with the PM is scheduled, so can't be considered as an uninvited drop-in.
I'm sure the PM can easily schedule an emergency meeting if need be (ie. War / Invasion)
@@korytoombs886 extraordinary circumstances don't apply. My statement stands.
Imagine the poor children who are brought up under this ruleset. Sometimes you need to have a good cry and if you can't let it out in front of your mother or grandmother without making an appointment first, that's terrible.
I think it’s just normal to call your parents before visiting… I call my daughter every time I want to go visit her… that is nothing wrong with calling and ask if you can be at they’re door…
God bless Her Majesty The Queen
Long may she live.
I am praying tor you.
Protocol. Expected, accepted & dignified. Assures organization, & security. Maintains agenda & itinerary. Guides all persons, thereby avoiding faux pas. It's necessary for continuity & functionality, & successful participation of/ by all Royals, Dignitaries & of/by Her Majesty. There must be proper Protocol. Actually, if everyone followed such, our world would be more dignified & respectful of one another. Manners should never be outdated. Respect should not be ignored. We should raise our children accordingly. I did this with my children, & compliments never ceased, regarding their manners. They could be taken out to dinner, 5 Star, as toddlers & forevermore.
A big reason why I don't think I'd go out of my way to leave Australia to visit them. I can love them from afar but I don't need to worry my head with all those protocols, thankyou.
The queen seems cool. I bet she breaks a lot of the so called rules and traditions.
I am sure that things are not so strict in private and within the family circle, but we will never know as the Royals never discuss private matters
She does. My mother was married to a Bermudian Member of Parliament and they always had to attend receptions, dinners, etc., when royals, heads of state, etc., were on the island. On one occasion at one of these events, my mother was standing near enough to Her Majesty to be able to ask her a question (my mother liked to push boundaries sometimes!). The question was about H.M.'s beloved corgis. The Queen answered back!
There is a risk of doing that because, if she does not want to answer, she can just ignore you, but the Queen is actually pretty down to earth and does a perfect job of balancing being a human being, and being an icon who has to carry the weight of over a thousand years of tradition on her shoulders.
I think H.M. is amazing and the world will be a sadder place when she is gone.
"For most people, letting the queen is a pretty unlikely scenario, anyway"
Well that takes a whole new meaning now
I was thinking the same thing. I guess now the way to do it is to go to heaven. If you don't believe she went to heaven (which sadly a lot of people are seemingly absolutely convinced of) and still want to meet her, there's a number of ways you could go the other way.

1:59 I like the scene where Her Majesty examines the Crown like it was some strange animal from another planet. Rest in Eternal Peace Your Majesty. Your job is done here on earth. Do meetup with your beloved husband Philip and have a laugh or two with him.
I had the honor of meeting her at a garden party she is very normal when you get to talk to her we had a lovely chat.
Michelle and the Queen “weren’t hugging” each other; just Michelle did what wasn’t supposed to. So don’t make it up. The Queen looks awesome on that gorgeous purple suit !
Etiquette was educated when I was young by parents especially on meals on table. When you learn it, shall not go wrong in life. Respect and manner .
Having watched The Queen's facial expressions meeting President Obama and Michelle Obama, I think they hit if off well and The Queen seems very happy to meet them.
And then there was Trump . . .

Same here. Party all night. My teenager would be considered rebellious for going to bed.
@@annabeljames9759 I’d like to have this rule with my husband who always falls asleep watching TV and makes me watch the same show 3 times 🤪

Maybe just palace rules not the queen's rules

The Queen also have Government documents to deal with daily and other official duties to attend to. so rules have to be put into place so that people just don't turn up without prior notice.
Its just routine.Margaret Thatcher said’the queen may rule but I run the country’. ! Well said. The PM does the real work
Well I just Love Queen Elizabeth those protocols are sound and mean placing Honour on her, may the Lord Bless her🙌🙏
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT. ONLY QUEEN ELIZABETH THE 2ND SHADOWS THIS STORY OF TRUTH. ( 2022 )
The United Kingdom has one thing the Americans will never have - a history stretching over a thousand years - and Her Majesty also has something that Americans will never have - CLASS!!
Us Americans have class enough to understand how important it is to know and love our children. We know that hired help can ever be adequate stand-ins. Your Royal family is proof of that. If that is no-class, I am proud of it. By the way, is clawing a person to the bone for sport considered class in your country?
Speak 4 yourself stranger‼️☹️🗣
How many Kings chopped off their wives heads just so they could take on a new wife or lover? Now that’s class...
People rarely just "pop in" with my family. We always call to make sure its a good time to visit and give the person an idea when we'll be there. People are busy or sometimes not feeling well and don't want to pass it on to you.
GOD BLESS YOU & KEEP YOU AWAY FROM ANY HARM . ❤️
When I was a child, at my elementary school, we took etiquette classes, we were taught as young ladies how to properly walk in heels and not sound like we were horses clopping. Additionally, we recognized that we just knew our “place”.
I remember taking etiquette lessons in school as well. They were called Cotillion Classes. Basic manners, dancing, how to eat and how NOT to eat.
Hello Duchess nice to meet you.
Just like me. Nobody is allowed to just come and enter my apartment. :-)
I completely agree. The worst thing is when someone turns up when you're not looking your best, about to head out or simply don't want to see anyone that day. It's basic politeness
Yup but people in my country still menage to put hospitality first no matter what they are going through and they will welcome you and make you feel home, whether you come unexpectedly or not. Im proud of my people, albanians. Most hospitable people in the world

“Those within the British Monarchy.” What a glaringly incorrect way of expressing that. Do you mean, “those within the Royal Family” or “those within the Court”? There is only one person “within the British Monarchy.” That’s the Monarch herself.

No one in the family lived at Buckingham Palace with the queen other than Philip until he retired to Wood Farm, Sandringham. The kids all have bedrooms, offices and meeting rooms for their charities in the palace, but they do not live there. They have their own homes. The bedrooms are for emergencies when they might have to stay overnight there.

The RF seems so cold, rigid, amoral.
Even when the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret are still alive?
@@bossmadammoose1948 not once she became queen. The moment they become the Monarch they're lives are ruled by a diary. Meets with this secretary, that secretary etc come 1st...family becomes 2nd. People think its easy but it isnt.
I think the reason Catherine and Sophie have got to grips with it all so well is both women had a chance to see exactly what marrying into the RF would be like.
Diana (though other factors involved) Fergie were both thrown in at the deep end and learned the hard way.
Example Fergie would want to throw open a window but couldn't as all the windows had to look identical so if one was open two inches then so we're the others. Was the same with lighting.
Jimmy Saville could, and that's documented fact.
" no no no you talk that way, then I will come back around and talk to you"
lmao The queen is probably so used to being a " photo op" and being quoted on news and radio that she never talks about anything important anyway, so she turns chit chatting into a process.
I met the queen randomly without an invite. She even said hello to me first!
Just before some of you get all up in arms. Those rules have been in place for hundreds of years. Remember her rank and her person are different. Her job is to defend her rank as in the armed forces.
The rules are stupid and ridiculous. The entire monarchy is an archaic and exclusive. One family should not have this much privilege just because their ancestor was a good warrior hundreds of years ago.
Warriors? More like land invaders and colonizers cough cough..
@@ultimatefirecracker1486 Yes, you are correct, they were invaders that colonized the UK.

I hope that bedtime rule is long past! I do agree with many of the protocols
Glad those rules aren't binding... I'd hate to lose my hand just for shaking hers! 😂
My grandfather saved dozens of English soldiers during WWII and has been to bankets with the Queen 4 times over a 30 year period. Most of these rules are in the book, but nobody has to follow them strictly. The Queen was even happy when normal people would still behave normally.
That’s actually good to know
I've always wanted to banket with a queen.
What did your grandfather do?
You must be so proud of your grandfather . As he put his life on the line . To save these men from the nazis
They treat her like a god........and she's just human
She is the main emblem of the state. In non monarchies that would be the flag. Why do soldiers all over the world defend their flags.? They are only pieces of cloth. It is not because of what they are . It is because of what they represent. Ditto the queen.
Beautiful Christmas season's 🪴 🌱 🌿 🌾
The Queen's Royal Prerogatives include the right to:
Declare war;
Choose and appoint all commanders and officers by land, sea, and air;
Convoke, adjourn, remove, and dissolve parliament;
Dismiss the Prime Minister and choose his replacement;
Choose and appoint all judges, councilors, officers of state, and magistrates;
Bestow all public honors, or create peerage for the House of Lords or bestow an order of chivalry;
Conclude treaties;
Initiate criminal proceedings and bestow pardons;
If you are pregnant, you can't do anything against all forces telling you to sleep, no matter the time of day, especially, if you want healthy children.
Poor Diana! She was heavily pregnant in one of those balcony pics featured in the video. You'd think they'd cut her a break on the going to bed before the Queen protocol!
Yeah, that is a bit much, I would not want people to delay going home because they are tired, just because I am queen, there is a little something called compassion
They have to stop eating the moment the Queen puts down her fork, too. I suppose if you have a healthy appetite, you know to eat in advance because your Queen was chunky by nature, so couldn't eat much in order to control her weight.
Humans make up the most rigid rules for themselves and others. There are much worse ones than these. A bus driver did not eat all day, due to his spiritual beliefs. OK, but he drove his bus and passengers, through a city store window. That got mention all over, photos and everything. Standing straight up on a parade grounds might make you, alone, fall over because you passed out on the field, instrument and all. You might then appear on the nightly news, with your tuba. Watch the immediate looks, if you put the silverware in the wrong order on your dinner table. Wear black every day forever, after the loss of a loved one, or be assigned different uniform colors, according to your job status category. Life seems long but it is really short. Be kind to others as Life is strange enough. My worst one was sitting all day at school, on a hard chair with a slanting downward desk, all put in rows so you couldn't see the blackboard over your classmates' heads. There are other ways to arrange furniture, especially, for an 8 hr shift for small children....with breaks, just like at work, later. So, the point is? The Queen I have watched, my whole life, is very human, after all.
Was Diana permanently pwegnant - or was she just selfish and rude?
We elect shall meet the king of kings
In eternity!
What a moment that will be! 🎉💕✝️
Gag…
I'm guessing that her lady's maid doesn't need an invitation, either.
Thank you 😊 💓 ☺️
wow what happens if the queen gets her hands on a video game she loves and plays it till dawn? i'd feel sorry for everyone else at the palace who have to sit around and can't sleep :-)
Protocol is protocol but when the Queen is in her private apartments in the palace having to have an appointment for her own children seems a bit much---Does she accept phone calls directly on a certain private line----This royal business can be a bit much
They all have private lines so they can speak to one another directly. In private appartmenys or studys. Example Charles had a private line which Camilla used so the Queen would also have one
I think that in recent years, her majesty has lightened up a bit with all those rules. I read somewhere that Michelle Obama got into the car before the queen did, realized that she had made a mistake and apologized, to which the queen replied by basically saying to "never mind all that rubbish."
I think it was more that Michelle Obama was expected to sit in the front with Philip driving, and the Queen and Barack Obama in the back. The Queen wanted the ladies to sit together and that's what happened.
“Michelle” Obama learned to live in the White House and obey protocol there. She deliberately violated boundaries because she is “special” and wanted to see what she could get away with. In this case it is fundamentally disrespectful of the Queens boundaries.
The had to give her time to tuck her tail in! 😂😹
Oh my gosh! To many rules for meeting another human…..
@@marielovato449 You miss the point. They are appalled at having to make an appointment to see your own parent or grandparent.
@@f.e.mccole8094 she is the Queen first, and a mother/grandmother second
I don't know but I like a humble king/queen I think in the UK they treat the queen like a god which puts a wall between her and her own people and I get to say such a thing cause i come from a kingdom too and our king is so humble that him and the royal family would visit our weddings or houses and there is rules for sure but not too strict or exaggerated
all royals in the world should not be worshipped like they are god.
@@chimmy1266 I come from a rich and powerful house and most royals marry females from us but we never see ourselves like in a higher or lower class if anything royal people are just normal humans who are born in a rich or powerful family they're not over us in any way and we should respect them and what their grandfathers/grandmothers did to gain that respect and power but not to a point that we worship them like gods or give them too much power than they should have! Sorry for my English it's late right now and feeling sleepy so I can't type or think right and I have nothing against the queen or the royal family there or any royal family but sometimes i think respect has a limit and if we go over it it becomes a negative thing and builds walls between people and in a way that's sad to know that the queen had to live in a certain standards just because she's the "QUEEN" and culture plays a role too..! I come from Saudi Arabia and our royals at the end of the day are from the same families or background as us we're kinda the same roots so that helps grounding them and it goes the same with all the gulf countries but yet again i don't wanna paint this fake picture there is many royals who are evil at heart but that's the rare case and cause they're humans like us but most of the known royals or the ones who're high in their roles are humble and grow up learning that if it wasn't for the people love and support you won't be a "thing" so i get why there is protocols and stuff and i stand with it but I just think some cases in this video is overexaggerated and it shouldn't be like that it's building a rift or a wall between normal people and their leader at the end of the day we're all humans and just because you were born in a royal family doesn't mean you should be treated like a god but they should be treated with respect same as any human you meet for the first time... but i get it we live in a world that love sorting us into classes and ranks sadly! all love and respect for my fellow UK people.
@@EridanusYT
Sure, you're from a rich and powerful house. Lol
I'm sure we all believe you. 😂
And I'm the queen of Sheba. 🤣

@@janicem9225 It would be silly to lie online just to have a handful of people who don't even know me in real life or who I'm to think I'm someone who I'm not! Even in UK there is powerful and rich houses and families not as rich or powerful as the royals but they're well known with a history and our family/tribe leader fought with the founder king to unite our kingdom with other tribe leaders and in case you wanna read about my family/tribe it's called Ajman tribe it might be my English that made it seem like I'm saying i come from a house that's as powerful or rich as the royals but it's not to that level we're just rich and we have a powerful history and status that even the royals merry from us and I'm happy to explain more and it doesn't apply to our family/tribe only there is a lot of honorable families/tribes same as in UK and there is a lot of history and culture that I can't just explain it on a UA-cam comment I hope this clear any confusion.
Of Course, like any other Ordinary Family they could and it's just that only a courtesy message will be there that he/she have come for her.
You always hear people say they broke the mold on that one , but in Queen Elizabeth's case God definitely broke the mold when he made her because she was very much one of a kind !!!
My Older Brother Andrew Passed away 2 weeks ago?, aged 52, wasn't a Prince, just a Commoner?,
Oh for god sake ..she’s just a person
Agreed. I dont understand why Britons worship this old woman like she's a god or something.
Almighty God save the Queen. God save her majesty the Queen, add life to her years and years to life. Awomen.
She as cute lovely Queen 👸 ! She had everything ! I wish be born Queen likes her on my next life ^^.
Even though I'm in American I have such great respect for Queen Elizabeth I actually look up to her she has been through hell and back as the queen but you know what 70 years into it and she's still doing her job.. so keep going Queen Elizabeth we love you you are loved around the world and my biggest fantasy or dream however you'd like to put it would be to meet the queen and I wouldn't screw it up like most Americans do I would do it the way it is supposed to be done don't talk to her until she talks to you don't touch her don't walk in front of her and anything else I missed in this post I have always loved the queen I'm 53 years old and as long as I can remember hearing about Queen Elizabeth I have loved her I have followed the British family 90% of my life I have nothing but respect for the queen for Prince Charles for Prince William for I don't know if Kate Middleton is Princess Kate but I think she should be as an American I would love to see her sitting on the throne next to her husband with the title king and queen yes I know he would be the head of the British Empire and she would just be the queen I'm sure there's much more involved but I'm really not sure what because as I've said I'm an American I watch documentaries I've read books I've tried to learn as much as I could about the Royal Family and I don't blame them for being secretive because you know what it's none of our business what they do in their personal lives just as it's none of their business what we do in our personal lives it's called respect
Can't go to bed before the Queen! I'd be in trouble, last night I was dog tired and went to bed at 7pm. I assume the Queen's late husband didn't need an appointment to see her!
Harry tried for 3 months to see her to discuss their problem. She stalled him so he finally gave up and left.
Hello Debbie how are you doing
Hi Debbie, I can think of four occasions when he didn't need an appointment ! 🤣
I saw where the night they got the news of Diana's death the family was on holiday together and Charles and the Queen communicated by sending hand-delivered notes.
She was a great Queen!
If it's just a normal question night at the palace with nothing going on, I don't see why going to bed before her is not OK.
Imagine being not able to see your grandmother because you have to follow rules 🤨
The Queen did not behave as a natural mother, so why expect her to be a natural grandmother?
Agree. Sad.
She is HM The Queen foremost... being a Mother and Grandmother comes second for her.
At a very young age, Her Majesty pledged her entire life to her country and its people and she has lived up to that pledge admirably. I think that takes precedence over being a grandma.
@@jonelfilipek7848 Probably for the country, but sad for her children. So to try to make her a loving grandmother now is slightly ridiculous. Other countries with a Monarch seem to be able to combine both. Could it be that your Queen wasn't into family and motherhood in particular?
May she rest in peace.
ITS FINE TO TRY AND ANALIZE WHAT WENT WRONG AND TO TAKE RESPOSABILITY FOR ANYTHING WE COULD HAVE DONE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE CLOSE TO US . WHEN THAT HAPPENS LETS COMMEND THE PAST SITUATION TO THE MERCY OF GOD ASKING HIM WHERE HE WANTS US TO FOLLOW . REMEMBER TO GET PLENTY OF REST AND CONTINUE TO EXERCISE CAUTION . THANK YOU . (2022)
Most of these rules are always in play, why I cannot understand Meghan's ignorance of etiquette
I just want to know what happens to all those outfits she has worn over the years!
Some have been saved - especially the ones worn for memorable events. HM wears her working wardrobe multiple times. I follow royal fashion and have noticed HM wearing outfits from ten or fifteen years ago popping up again. When she is finished with a dress or a coat, inside labels indicating the garment had belonged to her are removed and she hands them along to her ladies-in-waiting who then disperse them to ladies who could use them. Some of her dresses have been handed along again. Her evening gowns are worn multiple times as well but, of course, are not suitable to handing along to others. She also wears her hats many times each. I’ve read in multiple books and articles that she is frugal, like her father. She hates to waste things.

Lularoe?
I wonder if I would've been able to handle that kind of life had I been the one born into royalty... but thinking back on my childhood and how literally insane I've always been, I highly doubt that
I thought Buckingham Palace was sitting empty.
Buckingham is sitting empty, the Royal seal has been taken off the gates, the Royal guards with the big black hats called Beefeaters have not been seen for over a years and they are not guarding the castle. I can go on. Let me just say, nothing is as it was, for sure.
It's a weird world we live in when you have to abide by such arbitrary rules towards another human being who's no better than you
Manners maketh man
It is all about Manners 😌
Please would all you lovely people get this correct.
The Queen does NOT live in Buckingham Palace. Her residence is Windsor Castle.
Buckingham Palace is now only used by her as an official office and a venue for Royal events such as a State visit etc.
