Kate Middleton ‘put her foot down’ and stopped her kids from taking part in this royal tradition: book

According to royal author Tom Quinn’s new book, titled “Yes Ma’am — The Secret Life of Royal Servants,” the longtime tradition sees members of the Firm smear blood on their faces after their first kill during fox or stag hunting.
However, the Princess of Wales, 43, was adamant that Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6, do not take part in the ancient ritual, Quinn writes.

“Charles’s daughter-in-law, Catherine, Princess of Wales, has put her foot down and insisted there will be no blooding for her children,” Quinn wrote in an extract obtained by the Daily Mail.
The Post has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.

Quinn added that the king had taken part in the tradition, as has William and his estranged brother, Prince Harry.
It’s not the first time Quinn has highlighted the royal family’s desire to move away from the ritual.
