Loose Women star Kaye Adams has said she wouldn’t want to curtsy to Queen Camilla because she isn’t a blood member of the royal family
Kaye Adams had admitted she would find it ‘difficult’ to curtsy to Queen Camilla.
The Loose Women star said she felt ‘a bit uncomfortable’ having to do it as Camilla is not part of the royal bloodline.
Speaking during a segment ahead of this week’s Coronation, the 60-year-old explained: “How would I feel if she came in here as a Queen and I had to curtsy to her?
“To be honest, I’d find it difficult.”
The TV presenter continued: “The monarchy, it’s there, it’s part of our history etc, but I think once you’re bringing in somebody who is not part of that bloodline, then I don’t know.”
“The whole entitlement and privilege. I do feel a bit uncomfortable with it,” Kaye added.

Some of her Loose Women co-stars agreed, with Nadia Sawalha saying: “I would do it, but I wouldn’t want to do it. I don’t believe that anybody is better than anybody else.”
Earlier in the week fellow panellist Denise Welch – whose son Matty Healy is said to be the new boyfriend of Taylor Swift – said she would rather back Harry and Meghan than King
Asked if she would ‘cry out and swear allegiance’ to the King during his Coronation on Saturday, June 6, Denise replied: “What do you think?”
Explaining her reasons, she said: “Listen, I’ve got nothing against the Royal Family. However, of late, I’m pledging allegiance, if any, to Harry and Meghan. Because of that, I won’t be pledging any allegiance. I don’t even know what you’re pledging for.
“I am loyal and would pledge allegiance to my family. That’s all. I think it’s very outdated. I’m just not a fan of what’s going on at the moment… I wish them all the best in their King and Queen-ness.”

The Loose Women stars’ opinions seemed to echo that of the nation’s – with many believing Camilla would never be Queen.
There was a public outcry when Charles split from Princess Diana in 1992 and Camilla was labelled the ‘third person’ in their marriage.
Married herself, Camilla and Charles eventually ended up together and went on to tie the knot in April 2005.
Since then, the public has warmed to Camilla but it appears not everyone is keen to treat her like a Queen.

Another wrote: “Well done Kaye Adams. I wouldn’t curtsy to Camilla either. She is NOT the Queen of my country. Shame on others with short memories.”
A third commented: “Kaye was right. Others were wrong. Camilla is not our Queen. They have short memories.”
According to a poll on the Loose Women Twitter feed, only 40% who answered are excited for the upcoming King’s Coronation this weekend.
