No group of people have more engagements to attend than royals.
Royal events happen often, with each one garnering significant attention.
Royal events are typically not gripping news, because if all goes as planned, nothing particularly newsworthy happens.
While people fainting at royal events doesn’t happen regularly, it takes place more than you might think.
Here are seven fainting moments that stole the show at royal events.
But Remembrance Day in 1999 brought with it more excitement on a balcony than one had seen in years.
Princess Beatrice, a young girl at the time, fainted while standing on a balcony during the service.
All things considered, Beatrice’s fainting issue was not a huge ordeal.
The adults on the balcony appeared to usher Beatrice back inside.
Thankfully, it didn’t turn into one ofthe tragedies of Princess Beatrice’s life.
She did not fall, and she was not hurt.
Multiple royal guards fainted at the event, with some having to be carried off on stretchers.
But it does come with its downsides.
“It will probably involve a broken nose and a whole lot of missing teeth,” Bevan said.
Remembrance Sunday was already unusual that year as Queen Elizabeth II was not in attendance like she usually was.
The monarch ended up not attending any more Remembrance Sunday ceremonies asQueen Elizabeth died the following September.
The two shared a birthday, and sources have said they had a close relationship.
“There was a deep silence in the room that felt heavy with symbolism and reverence.
The collective focus quickly returned to the matter at hand.

The year 2023 was quite a time for royal faintings.
In May of that year, Princess Sophie passed out at her wedding to Prince Ludwig of Bavaria.
“A spokesperson confirmed, that Princess Sophie fainted during the wedding this morning.
After a drink she was fine again and the ceremony continued,” royal journalist ChristinZ shared onX.
“‘The bride fell backwards, the groom caught her.
The maid of honours rushed over, paramedics brought her water.
She felt well again straight away.
Psychiatrist Howard Jay Cohen had a different explanation.
“People blame all kinds of emotional reactions on all kinds of things.
Whatever the cause for fainting at weddings may be, royals, apparently, are not immune.
Just before the Windsors arrived at the castle, one of the Household Cavalry fainted in the street.
Earlier that month, another guard fainted while rehearsing for Trooping the Colour.
Other guards ran to him, offering him a stretcher, but ultimately escorted him away from the group.
Difficult conditions but you all did a really good job.
