In addition to having many responsibilities as the wife of Prince William, the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton must abide by a number of rules.
The rules are, of course, different and there are many of them, but one, in particular, caught our attention. Namely, believe it or not, we must never find one food on her plate. Food that many people adore. It’s potatoes. This starchy vegetable is strictly forbidden. The bizarre order was introduced by Queen Elizabeth and it is not the only one that Kate has to follow. Carbohydrates were also thrown out of the court, also by the queen’s order.
Chef Darren McGrady, who worked at Buckingham Palace from 1982 to 1993 and was the Queen’s chef, confirmed that, in addition to potatoes, pasta and rice are also banned. Queen Elizabeth is not a fan of carbohydrates “because they are risky”, so they are never on the table or on the plate of any member of the royal family, including the Duchess, are his words.
And, although many are enthusiastic about Kate Middleton’s behavior, well-informed sources say that she once violated this strict rule. Namely, as she has always adored pasta dishes, she decided to make a homemade one to celebrate Princess Charlotte’s fifth birthday in 2020. Nobody knows what consequences she suffered because of that, but insiders claim that it never happened to her again.
If you thought that the queen stopped at the rules regarding diet – you were wrong. This is just a part of the tangle where there are a lot of prohibitions, including the one related to selfies. Namely, taking selfies is strictly forbidden, and in addition, there is a special rule before going to bed. It is not yet known what exactly, but do you think anyone would dare to violate it? Except, maybe, Meghan Markle, in her time.
Let us remind you that Princess Charlotte just celebrated her 7th birthday a couple of days back. We assume that potatoes were off the menu!
