Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan of Morocco has captured the attention of millions across the globe on social media after rejecting an ancient court protocol. The 23-year-old heir apparent to the North African kingdom has gone viral following the circulation of a video showcasing his persistent and rapid rejection of the traditional royal hand-kissing custom.
In a footage shared extensively across Reddit and X, the young prince is seen deftly pulling his hand away at the exact millisecond a line of dignitaries, military chiefs, and elder statesmen bow to plant a kiss on it.
