The Royal Family<\/a> are known for having some pretty unique rules<\/a>, from never flying in the same plane as one another to certain ingredients forever being off the menu<\/a> \u2013 and they also have some solid guidelines in place for guests to their palatial homes. <\/p>\n

Take Buckingham Palace, for instance, which was the recent backdrop to King Charles<\/a>‘ reception for winners of his King’s Trust awards, which has a strict no filming policy in some areas.<\/p>\n

One such attendee to the Palace this week was Candy Kittens founder and reality star, Jamie Laing, who turned out with his pregnant wife, Sophie Habboo, to support the Trust, and who (gasp!) broke one of the royal rules. How? The couple decided to shoot a quick dance routine skit inside the Palace on the Grand Staircase, despite the no filming rules.<\/p>\n

They popped some moves to the viral Baby Momma Dance song, which interestingly enough, Meghan Markle<\/a> recently shared a clip of herself grooving to with Prince Harry ahead of Lilibet’s birth<\/a>. Something that, naturally, some fans couldn’t help but point out in the comments.<\/p>\n

Jamie posted the clip with the words, “The royal baby has arrived. They said we couldn’t film in Buckingham Palace\u2026 @sophiehabboo.”<\/p>\n

Now, while you might think this could be cause for a right royal telling off (or maybe even a trip to the stocks to receive some rotten tomato pelting? That’s what enraged kings tend to call for, right?), King Charles<\/a> actually came back with a pretty iconic response.<\/p>\n

Writing from their official Royal Family account (well, or at least someone on their team was), Charles and his wife Queen Camilla replied with a cheeky “We see you \ud83d\udc40\ud83d\ude09” under the footage. Obsessed! <\/p>\n

The King’s Trust’s account also joined in with, “All of our attendees are very well behaved \ud83d\udc40\ud83d\ude02.”<\/p>\n

Other celebrities who were there on the day chimed in with thoughts too, with presenter and singer Rochelle Humes remarking on how stealthily the pair managed to film. “The speed that this happened is genuinely impressive \ud83d\udc4f\ud83c\udffe I just about got mine in focus for a sneaky pic \ud83d\ude02.” <\/p>\n

Jamie and Sophie are far from the first famous faces to bend the royal rules during a Palace visit either; Olivia Coleman revealed her “husband stole some loo roll just to say we got it from Buckingham Palace” and presenter Lorraine Kelly also snapped a pic during her visit.<\/p>\n

Michelle Obama, the former First Lady of the United States, also revealed in her memoir that she hadn’t known hugging the late Queen Elizabeth II “would be deemed as an epic faux pas”.<\/p>\n

Sounds like the royals don’t mind too much though, so… as you were guys!<\/p>\n
