I always loved her snarky sense of humor. Even if she was offended (and she never seemed like someone who was easily offended) she responded in a delightful way. Other people of high status can certainly take a lesson from her.
she’s not as important as them tho lol she doesn’t mean much as far as the state of the country. so no. they don’t need to follow some white chick born with a crown on.
The Queen herself often broke some rules of etiquette, including applying lipstick in public and putting her handbag on the floor, though as signals to her staff. I think she proved that there is some room for flexibility when applying the rules of etiquette.
A photo of the Queen re-applying lipstick in public really shocked me. 😉 I felt like my etiquette world was coming to an end!! 😉😵😄 But since I'm not the/a Queen, I better stick to discretion, I guess. 😄
I was always told that we should never have to explain ourselves or give a reason when we decide to decline from something. I've heard it said, too, that one of the royal family's sayings is "Never complain, never explain." ... ? I really enjoyed this video! Thank you.
A little bit of information might defuse an awkward situation, though. One can so easily come across as snooty and stuck up; and that's not the goal. No need to dwell on it, of course. "That looks delicious, but I'm allergic to shellfish." "Sorry, but I'm fully booked that day." With a smile. Done. -- That attitude of the British Royals refers to their usual "No comment" reaction when they are criticized by the media, btw. 😉 They would not have time for much else if they reacted to every little bit the Daily Mail (and other such publications) gets wrong. 😄
@@thekingsdaughter4233 But royals do explain they don't eat garlic because of garlic breathe and shellfish because there are chances of food poisoning. If royals had confirmed that they are going to attend some event and of because of something they couldn't they wrote apology letters. If they receive invitation but their calendar is booked they give handwritten note and thanks them for invitation and briefly explain why they can't attend. They also write thanks note for receiving help or gifts. They don't react to rumours and gossip in tabloid. They only react when member of royal family or staff said something negative about but they keep it very brief. For example, when Diana and charles were negotiating for the divorce and nobody was ready to compromise then out of the blue Diana invited charles for private tea(only two of them) to negotiate divorce. They talked and Charles and Diana agreed on many things and charles told her he agreed upon most of the things but will confirm after talking to his lawyers. Then Diana agreed to divorce charles. Diana thought if she didn't reviled to midea what she what as divorce settlement and that she and charles had discussed it on tea royals might not full fill all her request so she her called her friend Richard key from Daily mail give him full details about her and charles's conversation and next day it was in Daily mail. That charles and Diana both will have joint custody of their children, Diana will receive £35 millions and 600k for office expanse and trawling yearly. 30+ room apartment at Kensington palace and she will retain title of princess of wales. Charles was furious that Diana leaked their private conversation. Buckingham palace gave statement that though they are relived that Diana gave consent for divorce but there no official settlement agreement has been made yet. Instead of 35 million Diana only received 17 millions and they took away Diana's hrh titles. After Harry and meghan's interview Buckingham palace gave now very famous statement "recollection may very".
Fun fact for the iron throne: in the books that the Game of Thrones series is based on it is often described as uncomfortable due to the thousand blades used in its making. Not only did the Queen follow protocol - she did so in a way that references the source material. P.S. I highly recommend the book series "A song of Ice and Fire" which Game of Thrones is based on. Even in a fantasy setting etiquette plays a big part of the plot.
@@a.b.2405 The books are quite long, took me a while to get through them myself. I'm still contemplating on whether or not I want to watch the House of the dragon. I have heard some promising reviews. Would you recommend it?
@@catharsis224 it does take a while to get through. It is kind of slow pacing (like how it is in the show). House of Dragon is good so far! I do like it so I recommend it.
Thanks for sharing these lovely facts about our beloved Queen. I suggest a new video about fall organisation ( closet organisation, new skin care, new books to read, new goals,new healthy habits according to the season…).Thank you, you are a great source of inspiration for me!
We miss you so so so much queen elizabeth 😭✨ but you will there forever in are hearts I really love your videos so so much and I wish you reach 700K Subscribers very very soon!✨💕☺️
Thanks, Jamila. As always, quite interesting and instructive video. In my opinion, this is also a nice tribute honoring such a great and special person her Majesty Queen Elisabeth II was. A big hug from Madrid (Spain) 🥰❤️
Thank you so much for this video; I enjoy them all. I just returned from leading a team of women on Capitol Hill. I worked to teach them etiquette and decorum but one ram rogue. I did the “ignore” and teach post meeting for the first day. The second day started the same, but I had to quietly remark as she shouted across the luncheon room in the Capitol Hill Club. The whisper about decorum was received with resistance; it is then that I remembered what you say, although she’s a representative of her group, we cannot control her and can only control ourselves.
Such an intresting and unique topic🤗. Very instructive and enlightening video. I loved it. Please make more such videos, reacting on royal family etiquette. 💖
If you haven’t already, I would love a video on the etiquette of Catherine, the Princess of Wales, and/or just a royal etiquette video in general highlighting the women of the British Royal Family
A big hug from India jamila 😊 as always , quite interesting and valuable vedio it was . How beautifully u pay tribute to our loving queen Elizabeth ll . Amazing ♥️
There are cultural differences. In some cultures, it would be rude not to say, "Bless you" or something like that. In other cultures it is thought rude to draw unnecessary attention to what is probably mildly embarrassing to the one who sneezed or hiccuped or such. As someone who suffers from seasonal allergies (which may include lots of sneezing) - if you say, "Bless you!" once, it's enough. Don't do it 14 times in a row (yes, I counted my series' of sneezing, out of curiosity 😞🤧😝) It's annoying, but there's nothing much we can do. 🤷
Please consider doing a video on breakfast buffet etiquette. It varies by country. i live in Thailand so there are mistakes overlooked, but nonetheless some rules may be universal. I witnessed a retired woman, not Asian, remove a bun from a covered tray, handle it over and over, inspecting it with bare hands, then toss, yes, toss it back into the tray and take a different bun. Horrid! Thank you! Ple
Eww! I could tell you a worse story from a potluck, but will spare you. 😉 -- One rule that is probably universal for hygiene reasons (and goes against my labor-saving brains!) is to ALWAYS take a fresh, clean plate when you go for seconds. I used to take the plate from which I just finished eating, because why dirty more dishes and cause extra work? But no. It is more hygienic to take a clean one to the buffet. That trumps labor saving. 😉 You might have known that already, but I had not; and had not properly thought it through. It's quite logical, but I just didn't think enough. There are signs with that rule at least at some buffets now. 😊
Its not about worrying for other people's manner Sometimes its just annoying right? When people chew loudly or speak while eating or be a bad host by being inconsiderate
Hii mam, as you said that watch looking confident video. I watched. Even I watched related videos. All these videos found very helpful. Now I'm working on these all things like sitting and and standing confidently with good posture. Because I was a slouchy person, now I changed my posture. My spoken english is weak , so I'm working on this too. Even I'm working on my external and internal things. So mam, would you please tell me what should have i done more
What a lovely video...Always enjoy watching the content ..I have a conundrum if you could please help me. I often invite my in laws over for lunch at my place..My MIL has always been extremely condescending and outright rude at such lunches and otherwise too( I have been married 22 years now and this has not changed). Recently after the lunch ,when I served the pudding ,my dad in law praised and said he really liked it to which she said," Oh ..anything sweet is always nice .You just need to throw in some biscuits with a custard !!".I felt hurt but did not say anything for fear of spoiling what had been a great lunch . Should have I answered back? In future how do I deal with similar instances? Should I stop inviting them in future?? I really feel very hurt .
I think you did the most elegant thing by not responding. Also, your mother in law will probably never change, so is it even worth confronting her at all?
A trained dog does their part- not surprising . And also I think it’s interesting that lying - making up a dishonest excuse - is seen as having manners instead of being honest .
I saw something about the Queen snubbing Barack Obama while he was President of the United States when he tried to propose a toast. I think the reason was more politically motivated than etiquette related, but that might be something to look into. ;)
i think he did his toast at the wrong time, whilst God Save the Queen played. That's a song that is not stopped for anything (or anyone). Not political, just unfortunate.
I highly doubt that the Queen was snubbing anyone. It seemed that she had a genuine rapport with the Obamas. Possibly more like wrong timing, like it was said. The Queen wasn't supposed to make political statements. Just like I don't think she wore a particular piece of jewelry to stick it to President Trump. Her assistant, Angela Kelly, explained one or two incidents when people thought the Queen was "sending a message." But it was simply coincidence. 😉😊
