It became known that Queen Elizabeth II gives every Christmas to her subjects.

As it turned out, this is a festive pudding and a postcard signed personally by Her Majesty.

The tradition was invented by the grandfather of Elizabeth II - King George V. In subjects of the queen is about 1500 workers, each of them receives this special gift for the holiday. Employees who have worked for Elizabeth for many years, get their pudding personally from the hands of the Queen.

In the royal family, there are several more Christmas traditions that are adhered to from year to year. It is interesting that his first royal Christmas Megan Markle will not spend under the mistletoe with Prince Harry.

Traditionally, after a festive dinner, the female half of the royal family is separated from the male one, so that representatives of the latter can chat on male themes, drinking brandy, and, possibly, smoking a cigarette.

By the way, the Queen herself prefers practical gifts. Once she was presented with an apron for washing dishes, and she exclaimed: "This is exactly what I wanted! ".

Let's remind, earlier Меган Маркл has bypassed Кейт Middleton.
