  • Have you ever dreamt of having afternoon tea with a royal? Do you know how to hold your cup, and what you shall eat first? Would you know what to do, and what not to do, if you ever met King Charles III? Have you discovered the secret message behind the late Queen moving her handbag from one arm to the other? Are you completely up to date on what to wear to a ball at Buckingham Palace, or the King’s summer garden party? Do you know which piece of cutlery to use and how to correctly use your napkin, and where to place it once done? Not to worry, because Grant Harrold, former butler to King Charles III and Camilla, Queen Consort reveals the secrets of royal protocol, and the life in the upstairs downstairs world of royal etiquette, tradition and customs. Soon you will be ready to float down the spiral staircase and waltz away with a royal, should you be invited to the ball…!

    Love this! Clearly a clap back to many of Meghan’s claims of her time in the RF (how to curtsy, wearing neutral colors, no “training,” etc.) Bravo!🇺🇸

    its a fascinating process. I would be interested in taking a course like one of these. I know it would not be easy but it would be nice to know what is considered proper. I always remember hearing - start from the inside and work your way out. I have no idea how true that is lol!

    That explains the enormous challenges for Prince Harry’s wife to apply etiquette she lacked and still does.

      I'm Javanese-Indonesian,... we also have great etiquette in our everyday life, and if I were Meghan I would happily learn, more and a great deal of this tradition, because you don't have to be royals to practice etiquette 🙏

    Very engaging video. Two errors, however: The Kind he was referring to about buttoning up the suit jackets was Edward the EIGHTH, not the 7th.....and the late Queen was NEVER one to wear 'the latest styles" through her many decades---she amassed her own individual style, and stayed with it, regardless of what was going on with the trends.

    The reason for the Royal Family always having a “ Black mourning” outfit is because when Queen Elizabeth’s father died while she was in Africa, she did not have an “black” dress with her and had to wait until one was brought for her.

    I enjoy Grant Harorld very much. Doesnt make since tho. Talking about royal etiquette and showing video clips of those that are not in the firm anymore. Wallis Simpson really? Harry and his wife really? We can do better than this. Mr. Harrold deserves a better video than this.
