Kate Middleton Slammed For Rude Gesture Towards The Queen Of Spain

Last Monday, we celebrated the appointment of King Felipe VI as Knight of the Order of the Garter in Windsor Castle, United Kingdom. The ceremony was led by Queen Elizabeth II and was attended by members of the British Royal Family.

Kate Middleton got people talking again, following a rude gesture she made towards the Spanish monarch. The Duchess of Cambridge overlooked protocol with the queen and, according to many media outlets, her behaviour suggests that they don't have a good relationship.

However, they're just rumours. According to Hello! magazine, Kate Middleton didn't break the rules, it's just that cameras didn't capture that exact moment. Don't miss her controversial gesture and the Duchess's justification in the video!

An exemplary duchess?

We're used to hearing about the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle skipping protocol, however, coming from her sister-in-law Kate, who is after all the wife of the future King, this kind of behaviour is more surprising.

Meghan Markle's behaviour has led to several run-ins with the Royal Family, including her husband. Prince Harry scolded his wife in public during the ceremony to mark the Queen Elizabeth's 93rd anniversary.

Meghan, watching the parade next to her husband, turned a couple of times to talk to him. On the first occasion, Harry answered her, but the second time he scolded her. According to a lip-reading expert, the duke told Meghan to "turn around, watch." It seems like the Duchess was not very interested in her mother-in-law's event...
