Experts say Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, is taking a stand against a long-standing royal tradition called 'blooding.' The practice, which involves smearing a young royal's face with the blood of their first kill—usually after hunting a stag or fox—has been part of the family for generations.
However, royal author Tom Quinn claims Kate is firmly opposed to the ritual. In his upcoming new book, he states that the Princess, known for her modern and compassionate approach to royal life, has 'put her foot down' and made it clear that her three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—will not take part.
