14 Feb
Summary
- Royal family members rarely display public affection.
- Balcony kisses after weddings are iconic royal traditions.
- Several royal couples have shared public kisses at events.
Members of the royal family traditionally maintain a level of public reserve, making any displays of affection a notable event. While still relatively uncommon, modern royal etiquette allows for more visible expressions of love.
Following royal weddings, balcony kisses have become a significant tradition, with Prince William and Kate's 2011 embrace being a prime example. European royals also partake in this custom, as seen with Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank's kiss after their 2018 nuptials.
Beyond formal occasions, certain royals are known for more spontaneous public displays. Zara and Mike Tindall frequently share kisses at sporting events like Cheltenham Festival and Royal Ascot. Prince Harry and Meghan have also been observed sharing public affection at joint appearances, demonstrating their support for one another. Even King Charles and Queen Camilla, and Prince Edward and Sophie, have occasionally shared a kiss during public engagements.
