What do the royals talk about?

Just thinking about the royals all spending this weekend together and thinking what do they talk about 😂

When normal folk get together with family it's usually just catching up and talking about random stuff, jobs etc but what do you think the royals catch up on?! What do you think Kate and Zara chat about? Or Edward and mike tindall? Can't imagine it's about how much housework they've got to do or getting the bathroom updated or how terrible their jobs going!
What do you think?!

Sport, holidays, stuff the kids have been doing, worries about the health of elderly relatives, what films they've seen recently, the new babies in the family.

I would imagine the conversation would be quite different if e.g Mike Tindall was leading it with the younger crowd, compared to say Prince Charles and the Kents / Gloucesters 😂

Definitely this. They probably also talk about how off the mark the DM is with their news reporting.

Do you think they discuss why poor people smell of paint?

"Grandmama, would you rather fight fifty duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck? Kate says fifty duck-sized horses but personally I think that's much worse."

Same as everyone else, they are ordinary people too. They might live a different lifestyle but many issues are the same eg parenting, wayward siblings and misbehaving dogs

Kids, ski-ing holidays, what’s being said about them in the news, annoying palace protocol, annoying palace people, the family, their royal gig or their jobs, pets, diets, gym stuff, houses, parties, UC gossip, insider political gossip, the news, their causes, William vs Harry..

Much the same as everyone, I guess

Small talk probably. Anything of any depth outsourced to accountants, lawyers etc.

I would love to hear their thoughts on platty-joobs, and wonder if they realise the general public's perception of them now. I doubt it's of much importance to them really. They're still getting paid Grin

Rugby, horses, football, dogs. That is a guess.

How the children and grandchildren are doing, how "Mummy" is doing now. Plans for the future.

AdaColeman · 06/06/2022 22:08

Horses, racing, eventing....
Anne and Tim probably chat about their favourite lighthouses.
Zara and Mike perhaps discussing schools, should they put their lad down for Eton?
Charlie and Camilla mulling over future home improvement plans at Windsor...might they get a job lot of settees from John Lewis? Should the Orangery be extended?
The burning issue of the day ATM will surely be the Californian connection!

Probably like most families:- how many times their kids have managed to piss them off during the school holidays, how they are now glad they’re back at school and what time is it appropriate and acceptable to open the first bottle of booze…

herewithmyfrog · 06/06/2022 23:18

I think they talk about their extended families and the staff.

Plus dogs/horses/the kids

Love Island

I imagine that they're a modern Downtown Abbey Upper class chit chat.

The Archers

The Queen is a big fan, she had a special radio transmitter installed to ensure she doesn't miss it and Camilla is a fan too. Margaret was also a fan when she was alive.

I'm sure they are very intrigued by about Jazza moving in with Tracey and what Rhuari is up to at uni!
