The queen consort made an effort to ensure that the princess played her role within royalty well, but she did not comply and had to comply with her rules.
In the fascinating world of royalty, where princess dreams come true, Kate Middleton has had to face a series of restrictions imposed by the always influential Camila Parker. From the way she should be called to the entertainment allowed, the Duchess of Wales has had to adapt to the palace's strict rules.
Who has not dreamed of living surrounded by luxuries and comforts like a princess. However, this dream life also comes with a series of obligations that Kate Middleton has had to accept since she became part of the British royal family. One of the key figures in the implementation of these rules has been Camilla Parker, the wife of Prince Charles.
One of the first rules that the princess had to abide by when she began as part of the royal family is that she was not allowed to be called by a pseudonym. She should be referred to only by her given name, Catherine, or by her full title, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. Any other form of address is strictly prohibited.
Another of the strict rules imposed by Camila Parker is the restriction of board games. The only entertainment allowed is Monopoly, after Prince Andrew declared a ban on it for the royal family in 2008. Kate Middleton will have to adapt to this unique game or teach it to her children.
In addition, the princess is strictly prohibited from engaging in conversations with people outside the palace, without exception of interviews or public statements. This responds to the need to maintain a low profile and avoid revealing details about her personality.
Finally, Kate Middleton is not allowed to have personal accounts on social networks, a security measure that applies to all members of the royal family. These strict regulations imposed by Camila Parker seek to preserve the image and protocol of the British crown, even if this means leaving behind some of the freedoms that Kate enjoyed before becoming a princess.
