👑🍯 HOW DOES KING CHARLES TAKE HIS TEA? His Majesty’s favourite is Darjeeling tea served with milk and honey, and I can confirm he enjoys a spoonful of honey in his cup. A suitably regal alternative to sugar! Would you try it? ☕️🐝 #king #royal #tea #afternoontea

👑⏰ THE ROYAL ESTATE THAT RAN ON ITS OWN TIME! King Edward VII introduced “Sandringham Time”, setting every clock on the royal estate 30 minutes ahead of GMT to gain more winter daylight. The custom lasted until 1936, so when London struck noon, Sandringham read 12.30! Would this have confused you? 👀 #royalfamily #royalhistory #royal #king

👑🚨 IS THE KING’S COMMONWEALTH ROLE UNDER THREAT?

The royal bride who paused her wedding to remember the fallen. On 26 April 1923, Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, the future Queen Mother, laid her wedding bouquet on Westminster Abbey’s Grave of the Unknown Warrior as she entered. She was remembering her brother Fergus, killed in the First World War. Her gesture began a tradition followed by generations of royal brides. #queenelizabeth #queen #weeillrememberthem #rememberencesunday

👑 QUEEN ELIZABETH COULD HAVE BEEN QUEEN MARY! Born Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, she could have chosen one of her middle names as her reigning name when she became Queen in 1952, just as her father Albert chose George VI.
