The royal family reportedly has a slew of rules and regulations that they need to follow. And even non-royals need to abide by some rules and regulations when meeting the members of the British clan in public. However, over the years, there have been claims that not all the reported rules and regulations are accurate. After all, some may have just been a work of fiction.

Jon Hamm Revealed Some Guidelines He Followed During His Meeting With Prince William, Kate Middleton

During an interview on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, actor Jon Hamm confirmed that he was informed of all the guidelines that he needed to adhere to before he met Prince William and Kate Middleton at the premiere of Top Gun: Maverick.

“[There are] guidelines that are not so many guidelines as hard and fast rules that you are made to follow,” he said (via People).

And when he appeared on Live With Kelly and Ryan, Hamm detailed the guidelines that he was asked to follow.

“It's a little anxiety-producing because they give you these rules that you're meant to sort of follow. You're meant to say, 'Your Royal Highness' — if they offer their name, then you can use their name, but you can't do it first. And you can't offer your hand, they have to offer their hand. Then you have to bow, but you can't bow too low,” he said.

Hamm also revealed that his fellow actor, Miles Teller, couldn’t stop gushing over the color of Prince William’s eyes. Teller discovered that the Duke of Cambridge’s eyes is so blue, but Hamm didn’t have the chance to analyze it because he thought that he couldn’t look the future king in the eye.

Tom Cruise Accused Of Breaking Protocol During Prince William, Kate Middleton Meeting

Prior to Hamm’s confirmation, there were also recent discussions when it came to Mission: Impossible actor Tom Cruise. Ahead of his movie premiere, the actor was spotted reaching out for Middleton’s hand to guide her up the stairs.

Royal fans praised Cruise for his sweet and kind gesture. But they were also convinced that he wasn’t supposed to hold Middleton’s hand unless she was the first one to reach out for his hand.

In fact, the Duchess of Cambridge was seeming caught by surprise by the gesture. As such, after Cruise guided her up the stairs, she immediately placed her bag in the hand that was closer to the actor. This way, he could not reach for her hand anymore.

But Finding Freedom author Omid Scobie came to Cruise’s defense and said that he did the right thing. After all, this is better than Middleton making headlines before she tripped on the stairs.

Meanwhile, other eagle-eyed royal fans were also convinced that Prince William wasn’t thrilled to see Cruise holding Middleton’s hand. However, Vanity Fair countered the rumors by saying that Prince William and Cruise are very close. In fact, they also have a ton of similarities.

“We have a lot in common. We both love England and we’re both aviators, we both love flying,” Cruise said.
