<p>It is said that King Charles III broke the rules since the official website of the royal family states that the ideal protocol when meeting a public member of royalty is to make a brief bow; if this seems too much, a slight handshake would also suffice, but there is nothing about a kiss, as it would seem inappropriate.</p>

<p>Moriarty confessed to the BBC how things happened: <em>“I said to him, ‘Please, can I give you a kiss?’ And he gives me his cheek. I just did it! I didn’t plan it, and I enjoyed it. He’s lovely. It was very nice. I am pleased. I thought if all these young dolly birds can do it, this old lady can!</em>” which also proves that Charles is an empathetic king to his supporters.</p>
