Etiquette Guide: How to Behave When Encountering a Royal Person in a Public Setting

How should one behave in relation to a royal person suddenly encountered in a public environment – it is a delicate matter of etiquette!

Daily Mail Richard Eden, the editor of the royal family section, has given his opinion:

“James Bond actor Daniel Craig and wife Rachel Weisz should have stood up when Kate approached the seats in the royal box – it’s not only a matter of good manners but also a matter of respect,” he told his followers on Instagram.

Sharing a photo of the Princess of Wales chatting with the celebrity couple, he wrote:

“This photo makes me uneasy. While there may not have been room for Rachel Weisz to make a bow or Daniel Craig to bow, shouldn’t they at least stand up to greet the Princess of Wales – Queen-to-be?”

So how is it really? “Even if you’re not a Hollywood celebrity, or even if an ordinary person walks up to you to start a conversation, it’s polite to stand up, whoever they are. When that person is our next queen, it’s even more important!” emphasizes the connoisseur of etiquette.

According to etiquette, a man in particular must stand up and remove his sunglasses if a lady starts a conversation with him in a public place.

I guess Mr. James Bond – you’ll have to learn some etiquette!
