Princess Kate's Christmas protocol slip revealed
14 Nov
Summary
- Princess Kate momentarily fumbled protocol at a 2016 Christmas service.
- She shared a touching story about Queen Elizabeth II's gift-giving.
- The late Queen would leave gifts for George and Charlotte at Sandringham.
In 2016, the Princess of Wales experienced a brief moment of protocol confusion at the annual royal Christmas church service in Berkshire. As she exited St. Mark's Church, Catherine, holding Princess Charlotte's hand, adjusted her jacket and almost missed shaking the priest's extended hand.
Earlier in 2016, Catherine shared insights into royal Christmases, recalling how Queen Elizabeth II would leave small gifts for Prince George and Princess Charlotte at Sandringham. This warmth extended to Catherine when she spent her first Christmas at Sandringham in 2011. Concerned about a gift for the Queen, Catherine decided to make her grandmother's chutney recipe, a gesture the late monarch clearly appreciated.
