Kate Middleton and Prince William defied Queen Elizabeth II’s golden rule by travelling to Cornwall by helicopter for official engagements.

The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall, who are also the Prince and Princess of Wales, undertook their first combined visit to Falmouth on Thursday since taking on their new responsibilities on September 8.

The couple reportedly put their lives in danger by flying there together in the aircraft, which coincided with a known concern the late Queen had whenever her grandson used helicopters with his family members.

The Queen’s dread kept her “awake at night,” according to a source in December 2021.

They also stated that William’s grandmother ordered him to “stop flying himself,” regardless of how skilled a pilot he was after years of serving with the RAF and air ambulances.

“Queen Elizabeth II has told close friends and courtiers that she would like William to stop flying himself, particularly in bad weather, as helicopters are not the safest form of transport,” a source told.

They added: “It keeps the Queen awake at night and she is understandably very worried. She knows William is a capable pilot but does not think it is worth the risk for all five of them to carry on flying together and can’t imagine what would happen. It would spark a constitutional crisis.

“The Queen has told William she is worried that, however good he is as a pilot, bad weather and accidents can strike at any time. The Queen is delighted in the way William and Kate have risen to the challenge in recent years and knows the monarchy is safe in their hands. She thinks the future is bright with them at the helm after Charles but if something happened to him and the family it doesn’t bear thinking about.”
