Royal Lefties: Which Members of the Royal Family are Left-Handed?

While most people typically write with their right hand, it’s estimated that around 10 to 12 percent of the global population are left-handed.

This includes notable figures like former US presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.

Prince William, who is expected to become Britain’s future king, is well-known for being left-handed.

He has been observed signing guest books with his left hand on several occasions.

Prince William has humorously commented in the past, suggesting that “left-handers have better brains” than right-handers.

  1. George VI was left handed bit was forced to use his right instead. This may have brought on his stuttering later on as he developed. Superstitious, illogical people forced right handednness on the left handed people.

  3. I remember my teacher would always come thru and return my paper vertically.. and I, being me, would return it back on its side horizontal for my comfort! It happened every day. I was a little kid, too.. 😊

  4. A former supervisor of mine in district court was retraining herself to be a left handed writer. A very manipulative supervisor. They may not have been born left handed.

  5. Oddly enough my grandfather,father, uncle my brother, and myself are left handed. All on my father’s side. I always found that to be extraordinary from one family. None of my 3 children are lefties, only my grandson.

  6. I was a leftie until it was beaten out at school, still play Cricket, Golf and Tennis left handed though. Couldn't find a left handed Saxophone or Piano so played on right handed ones.

  7. You don't want to be left-handed because you smudge the ink. I rather have good penmanship than be royalty.

  8. My mother was left handed and good penmanship. My father was left handed, forced to write right handed as a child and did not have good penmanship. I'm right handed.

  9. I’m in my 60’s born lefty but had to write right handed but all my arty work is left handed 🤪🤪. What does that make me 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 🤣🤣🤣. Luckily there are more aides for lefty’s now ……

  10. I'm left handed and at school they tried to make me use my right hand because some classemates thought it was weird the ×ay I write. I only realized that Prince William is left handed few days ago. I wonder if at school they tried to make him use his right hand…
