The Royal family’s personal life has always been kept private as much as possible, although they are public figures and are well-known around the world, the British government has made sure that the family is well protected and that their life behind the palace door is theirs alone to enjoy.

From the very beginning of their existence, the life of the royals has been subject to scrutiny, from even the simplest of things, such as, what is the favorite food of the Queen, to many bigger issues, the family has always been a wonder to people. 

Now, a little hint has been revealed. The apparent crowning of Prince Charles in the coming years is not a question, and because of this, people have been more interested in the quiet life of the heir apparent and this includes the rumor about his love for eggs!

According to palace insiders, Charles loves eggs so much that he has them for every meal. The Prince loves his eggs cooked hard-boiled.

Palace staffers say that they don’t really know the consistency or hardness the Prince wants his eggs to be, and so as any logical person would do, they would cook several eggs with different consistencies and line them up.

Prince Charles is said to choose from the lined eggs until he favors a specific consistency. Talk about being a royal!

This was revealed in Jeremy Paxman’s book, and he wrote there that, “Because his staff was never quite sure whether the egg would be precise to the satisfactory hardness, a series of eggs was cooked, and laid out in an ascending row of numbers. If the prince felt that number five was too runny, he could knock the top off number six or seven.”

Mr. Paxman also wrote that Prince Charles liked his egg boiled only till 4 minutes and nothing more above or below that.

Even Josh O’Connor, the actor who plays Charles in the hit Netflix series ‘The Crown’ expressed his desire to ask the Prince one day about his love for eggs. 

He jokingly said that he would not ask the Prince anything on Diana or Camilla, only about the eggs that he loves so much.

Prince Charles is well-loved by the people despite having a very cold exterior, he continues to be one of the most popular royals around. He is the heir apparent and will inherit the throne when the Queen passes away.
