Kate middleton and william skip protocol in 'breakthrough' video

Kate Middleton and Prince William shared the short clip on their Instagram page. It was a montage of recent outings of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Speaking exclusively to

Express.co.uk, she said: "This video starts with a special breakthrough moment in the relationship between this couple and their public. "‘You need to be careful what you say,

these guys, they’re filming everything’ is William’s opening joke and with Kate’s squealed response ‘I know!’ we get to see the future King and Queen choose to break through formality and

protocol, plus the glass wall of the camera lens, to emerge looking like real people and our actual friends." The parents-of-three show their relatable side as they joke about recording

a remote video, something many Britons have become familiar with during the pandemic. DON'T MISS "It’s the kind of mock outtake moment that we’ve all been doing during lockdown as

we send birthday and celebratory videos to the people closest to us," Judi continued. "So seeing the Cambridges sharing a similar moment of banter with us gives the impression

that they really like us and ‘get’ us." Prince William is second in line to the British throne and it is likely he will be King one day. When he gets this role, it is likely Kate will

become Queen Consort. "[They are] enjoying their time sharing jokes with the public rather than suffering under the weight of responsibility." The post quickly gathered thousands

of comments as royal fans shared their appreciation. One wrote: "You guys are rocking it. I think your approach to the monarchy is inspiring!" Another added: "The Duke and

Duchess have upped their social media game. Love it!" A third agreed, stating: "Definitely modernising the Royal family. Love the increased social media presence." THE ROYAL

LINE OF SUCCESSION - WHO OUTRANKS WHO? The line of succession to the British throne dictates the order in which each member of the Royal Family would ascend to the throne. It is also seen as

a ranking of importance with the head of the line, the Queen, taking the place of ruler. Older children come before younger children. Traditionally boys came before girls, but this law was

changed on 26 March 2015 before the birth of Prince William’s first child. Incredibly, Catholics are still excluded from the line of succession, as are children born outside of wedlock. The

royals, who usually stick to a strict protocol when appearing in public, often arrive at events in ascending order of importance, with the most important royal arriving last. Prince Charles,

72, is currently first-in-line to the British throne, followed by Prince William, 38, his oldest son. Then comes Prince William’s children, George, seven, Charlotte, five, and Louis, two,

and they are followed by Prince Harry, 36. Prince Harry is succeeded by his son Archie Harrison, born in May 2019.
