Former royal chef Darren McGrady revealed that, as part of the protocol, these are the strict rules that Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis must follow when eating while they are still children.
Due to their young age, the little princes do not share the table with their parents during official dinners, a very clear rule without exceptions, not even on dates like Christmas. This is possibly because their behavior will not be the most appropriate, preventing the enjoyment of those present.
McGrady assured, “The children always ate in the nursery until they were old enough to conduct themselves properly at the dining table“. She also said that educating the palates of the little royals was part of the nannies’ job; “Nanny always had control of the menu and made sure they ate balanced meals that included not only lots of healthy vegetables but introduced them to new grown-up dishes too“.
The rules for this type of protocol indicate that after having reached a suitable age, having an educated palate, and having “learned the art of polite conversation“, the children of Prince William and Kate Middleton will be able to take a place at the big table with the rest of the guests.
