The three children of Prince William and Kate Middleton have to follow a 'dinner rule', according to a former royal chef. Darren McGrady revealed that Prince Louis, Princess Charlotte, and Prince George are not allowed to eat with their parents at official dinners or during holidays. As per the former royal chef, the rationale behind the rule is to allow children to learn the art of polite conversations before exposing them to official dinners.
Darren McGrady shared that in the beginning the three children ate with their nannies in the nursery. They were allowed at the dining table later after they grew old enough to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner.
“The children always ate in the nursery until they were old enough to conduct themselves properly at the dining table,” Darren McGrady said, adding, “The royal nursery wasn’t just for educating the minds of the young royals but educating their palates, too. Nanny always had control of the menu and made sure they ate balanced meals that included not only lots of healthy vegetables but introduced them to new grown-up dishes too."
