taking part in a royal “blooding” ritual, a new book has revealed.According to royal author Tom Quinn’s new book, titled “Yes Ma’am — The Secret Life of Royal Servants,” the longtime tradition sees members of the Firm smear blood on their faces after their first kill during fox or stag hunting.However, the Princess of Wales, 43, was adamant that Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6, do not take part in the ancient ritual, Quinn writes.“Charles’s daughter-in-law, Catherine, Princess of Wales, has put her foot down and insisted there will be no blooding for her children,” Quinn wrote in an extract obtained by the Daily Mail.The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.Quinn added that the king had taken part in the tradition, as has William and his estranged brother, Prince Harry.It’s not the first time Quinn has highlighted the royal family’s desire to move away from the ritual.In his 2023 book, titled “Gilded Youth,” the author described how William is keen for the family to get with the times when it comes to hunting.“William loves shooting — a love he shares with his father — but he is also conscious that the tide is now moving against what many people now refer to as blood sports (the royals prefer to refer to them as field sports),” Quinn wrote.

The Sun reports.King Charles’ younger brother was snapped returning home from an early horse-riding outing that day, ahead of the lunchtime meeting at his residence.The meeting took place just three days before court papers highlighted Andrew’s close ties to Yang Tengbo — the former working royal’s business adviser who has been accused of being a Chinese spy.While the meeting took place at Andrew’s home, it’s understood that he was not present during discussions between Tengbo and Waterberg-Stirling’s CEO Oleg Firer, the outlet adds.Firer, for his part, previously served as Grenada’s ambassador but was forced to step down after being banned from entering the country in 2023 over security concerns.His firm, of which he served as Vice Chair, maintains strong links to China’s controversial Belt and Road Initiative, and is a “key stakeholder” in the company Startupbootcamp, which inked a lucrative deal with Andrew earlier this month.The Dutch business firm will pay him millions in exchange for his connections from the Pitch@Palace initiative.Speaking to The Sun, the UK’s former Home Office Minister Norman Baker said it’s “extraordinary” for Andrew to be involved in yet another scandal.“Andrew goes from one disaster to another, and shows a complete lack of judgement,” Baker told the outlet.

On the brink of the much-anticipated Royal nuptials between King Charles III and Diana extended a touching gesture to his soon-to-be wife when he was the Prince of Wales. As revealed in Andrew Morton's book, 'Diana: In Her Own Words', Diana reminisced: "He sent me a very nice signet ring the night before to Clarence House, with the Prince of Wales feathers on and a very nice card that said: 'I'm so proud of you and when you come up I'll be there at the altar for you tomorrow. "'Just look 'em in the eye and knock 'em dead.'" The ring, adorned with the Prince of Wales emblem, was sported by Diana at various events, including the Regent Street Christmas lights switch-on later that year.

The Times of London, Quinn writes that the king’s wife once complained to Charles about having to follow royal protocol.“One member of staff told me that at one point, Camilla hated the idea of being queen and would regularly say to Charles, ‘Can’t we get away from all this protocol?’” Quinn wrote.“It’s all bollocks,” the queen allegedly added.And when Camilla, 77, reportedly told the king she had no interest in becoming queen, “Charles, who hates swearing, would demurely reply, ‘You’re doing it [becoming queen] for me, darling,’” Quinn wrote.According to the royal author, “protocol means suits must be pressed and laid out after a period of consultation the night before,” and shoes “must be polished.”Meanwhile, baths should “be run at precisely the same time each day,” Quinn adds.What’s more, Quinn added that the monarch, 76, and his eldest son and future king, Prince William, are “prone to tantrums if things are not done to their liking.”“They both get irritated very quickly,” a former palace staffer told Quinn. “They are very picky.

It’s very difficult to do school and normal life,” he went on.William became patron of the children’s charity — founded by his late mother’s friend Julia Samuel — in 2009. His late mother previously served as patron up until her untimely death.“What my mother recognized back then — and what I understand now — is that grief is the most painful experience that any child or parent can endure,” William added.The charity, which is in its 30th year of service, prides itself in supporting youngsters who are experiencing grief in their lives.During his visit, William spoke with several teenagers who have leaned on the charity for support in previous years.“He knows exactly the situation we’ve been in — he’s been in the same situation around our age as well.

the Times reports.“Meghan hugged [William] virtually every time they bumped into each other,” the report read, citing palace staffers.The difference in cultures “deepened the rift between the brothers,” the outlet adds, as staffers fueled the rumor mill by false claims that she was “flirting” with the prince.While the report states that the “Suits” alum most definitely did not flirt with the future king, her affection did create a “tense atmosphere,” sources told the outlet.As a result, the mom of two was “understandably hurt” by the “pompous” response to her friendliness. Elsewhere, the report also detailed one instance when Markle approached Kate, William and King Charles for a hug — but the trio all flinched in unison.“Meghan even tried to hug a singularly stiff Old Etonian equerry,” a staffer told the outlet.
