Prince William defied royal protocol at the King's Coronation when he chose not to bow to Queen Camilla at the Coronation Concert. A body language expert claims that the Prince of Wales might have found it strange to perform such a gesture to his stepmother.
Royals bow to Charles at Coronation Concert
Prince George and Princess Charlotte notably followed their father's example and did not appear to bow or curtsy to Queen Camilla. According to royal protocol, Queen Camilla is more senior than the Prince of Wales, and would usually be received with a bow.
Because of royal intermarriage, Prince Harry is descended from Margaret Kerdeston in more than 240 lines, including at least four through King George III and four through Princess Diana.
As the second child of King Charles III and the late Princess Diana, Prince Harry is fifth in line for the throne after his brother, nephews and niece. His wife, Meghan Markle, is not in line for the throne - much like the Duchess of Cambridge - but their two children are.
Harry remained a Prince, and the couple kept their Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles, but are no longer addressed as His/Her Royal Highness (HRH). He also gave up his military titles and no longer wears army uniform in public.
"The general rule of thumb to remember is that a Royal Highness does not curtsy to another Royal Highness," etiquette expert Myka Meier previously told People.
As a member of the royal family, Kate was thereafter elevated to a position where people may curtsy to her, though she would still have to curtsy to the monarch. This stayed the same even when King Charles made William and Kate the new Prince and Princess of Wales after the death of the queen in September 2022.
Kate has curtsied in the past for both the late Queen and more recently King Charles. However, Royals only have to carry out the act the first time they see them each day, which could explain why Kate hadn't curtsied.

After making public more of the details of the fallout between the family members since his decision to step back as a full-time royal, he clarified that they don't keep in touch much. Host Anderson Cooper asked Harry: "Do you speak to William now? Do you text?" to which he responded in the negative. "Currently, no.
There was a time when Prince William and Prince Harry were so close they were more than brothers - they were also friends. While they were close for years, even acting as Best Men for one another at their respective weddings, the brothers have been separated by a rift that is said to have begun four years ago.
Prince William follows close behind Charles as next in line for the throne. Though it would seem Prince Harry would be after his big brother, he was bumped back following the birth of William and Princess Kate's children.
Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, is currently fifth in line to the throne. Born in London in 1984, he is the younger son of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Diana, the late Princess of Wales. Harry was 12 when his mother died.
This means that yes, Harry no longer wishes to be referred to as 'Prince'. Interestingly, however, the Duke of Sussex is still fifth in line for the throne. So, there you have it. Ultimately, the Duke of Sussex is still technically considered to be a prince, even though he wishes otherwise.

Since Charles has taken to the throne, the tradition has changed so that now, in the Royal order, Camilla has outranked Princess Anne - meaning all the royal women in the family must (and will) curtsy to her.
So, what's the deal? According to the royal rule book, female members of The Firm must curtsy to the most senior members of the monarchy – currently King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla – whilst their male counterparts must bow their heads.
This deliberate gesture was believed to be a response to Camilla's recent behavior. An insider revealed: "That obvious insult raised eyebrows big-time. Apparently, Kate was seething over commands Camilla made about coronation guests and decided to make her angry feelings very obvious."
