The late Queen Elizabeth II had 'sharp words' with Prince William after he took his son Prince George on a helicopter ride, according to a new book. The book, Our King by Robert Jobson alleges Her Majesty was not pleased about her grandson choosing to defy the wishes against all flying together and took the flight alongside his wife and their kids.
It's believed the royals fear such a trip could potentially wipe out multiple heirs to the throne if a tragic accident were to ever happen, the Mirror reports. According to unofficial protocol, Prince William should never be on the same flight as King Charles or Prince George as if the aircraft were to crash it could threaten the future of the monarchy.
Writing in the book, Mr Jobson said: "Which was why she had sharp words with William after he defied her wishes by taking a helicopter flight to Norfolk with all his immediate family. She had warned him against flying with George in case of an accident, telling her grandson he always had to be aware of the succession."
