00:00 A video of Princess Kate from April 2022 is going viral on TikTok for her subtle mastery
00:05 of royal protocol.
00:07 Taken during a 2022 engagement with Princess Anne, Queen Elizabeth's only daughter, the
00:11 video shows the royal women arriving together in a car to their first ever joint outing.
00:17 But after Kate exited the vehicle, she stood outside for a moment to allow Anne to make
00:21 her way around the car.
00:23 Then Kate paced herself a step or two behind, allowing Anne to be the first to greet their
00:27 hosts because while Kate outranks blood members of the royal family, she only does so when
00:32 she's with her husband, Prince William.
00:34 When not accompanied by William, princesses of royal blood rank above her.
00:39 Princess Anne is second in rank among royal women only to Queen Camilla as the monarch's
00:43 wife.
00:44 Although Kate was not raised in aristocracy, she's become known as an expert in royal
00:48 protocol.
00:49 She never fails to dip into a curtsy when greeting King Charles and Queen Camilla, and
00:53 she's modeled her wardrobe from brightly colored ensembles to sensible nail polish
00:57 on the late Queen Elizabeth.
00:59 (upbeat music)
