What we’re all talking about this month

Rebel Royals

From a spare heir who’s leaving his royal duties in the lurch to a ruler who once promoted his dog to a top- ranking position in the military, here are the most controversial royals ever.

Prince Harry of England

In an unprecedented move that caught the Queen by surprise, Prince Harry steps back as a senior royal earlier this year and plans to live the quiet life with Meghan and Archie in Canada.

King Maha Vajiralongkorn of Thailand

Before his elevation to the top of the Thai monarchy, he was a notorious party boy who even made his poodle an official Air Chief Marshal.

Sultan Muhammad V of Malaysia

He’s the first Malaysian King to abdicate the throne. He did so after marrying a former Russian beauty queen, whom he then divorced after one year of marriage.

Princess Cristina of Spain

She’s the first member of the Spanish royal family to ever appear in court and stand trial after being accused of fraud.

Princess Stephanie of Monaco

The daughter of American actress Grace Kelly, Princess Stephanie must have a thing for the circus because she’s been married to both an elephant trainer and an acrobat.

Prince Jefri of Brunei

The Asian prince of a conservative Muslim country reportedly named his super-yacht, Tits, and its on-board vessels, Nipple 1 and Nipple 2.

Princess Hayfa of Saudi Arabia

The princess caused controversy when she was pictured behind the wheel of a car for a magazine cover. All while, the kingdom’s ban on women driving was still in force.

Tiny Tempers

Royal kids can get all hot and bothered, too, judging from these outbursts from some monarchs-in-the-making

Princess Charlotte of England:

The fourthin-line’s royal tour to Germany ended in tears after she missed her afternoon snooze.

Prince Felix of Denmark:

Following your parents on their royal duties seem quite fun but this little prince looks like he’s had enough.

Princess Leonore of Sweden:

Even her younger sister’s christening wasn’t enough to keep the princess’s shoes on her feet.
