Hold up, folks! Let's not get it twisted. While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have officially settled into Frogmore Cottage with baby Archie, they’re not about to lay down any harsh rules for their Windsor neighbors. Despite some reports suggesting otherwise, the royal couple isn’t planning to micromanage how people should behave around them. That’s right—no strict guidelines here!
In case you were wondering, Buckingham Palace has already stepped in to clear things up. A spokesperson told Us Weekly, “The Duke and Duchess didn’t request this, didn’t know about it, and had nothing to do with the content or guidance offered.” So, relax! There’s no need to worry about a royal rulebook anytime soon.
Royal Rules? Not So Fast
Now, here’s where things get interesting. According to The Sun, there were claims that Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, wanted their neighbors to follow a list of rules. These included everything from how to greet them to how to act if you spot them in public. But let’s be real—wouldn’t that be a little much?

Here’s what the alleged guidelines reportedly said: “Don’t approach or start a conversation if you see the Royal couple. If they speak to you, do say ‘Good Morning’ or some other polite greeting. Don’t pet or stroke their dogs, even if they come over to you. Don’t offer to walk their dogs. Don’t ask to see baby Archie or offer to babysit. And, definitely, don’t post anything through the letterbox of Frogmore Cottage.”
What the Neighbors Think
After hearing about these supposed rules, some locals reportedly voiced their concerns to The Sun. One person even said, “It’s extraordinary. We’ve never heard anything like it. Everyone who lives on the estate works for the royals and knows how to behave respectfully.” Another noted how hard it was to take the list seriously. “It would be funny if it wasn’t so over the top,” they allegedly said.
Royal Commentators Weigh In
Even royal commentator Ingrid Seward chimed in on the “incessant” demands. She found the whole thing a bit odd. “It’s odd because it’s just good manners to engage your neighbor in conversation in a pleasant way. It’s a very normal British thing to say ‘Good Morning’ and pat a dog,” Ingrid revealed. “The Queen always chats to neighbors and even has tea with people on the estate as she’s very friendly with them. The ‘not petting the dog’ part is particularly strange.”
Thank goodness Harry and Meghan haven’t sent out these demands! They seem like a laid-back couple who just wants to enjoy their life at Frogmore Cottage with their growing family.
