Generally speaking, the more famous (and wealthy) you are, the more eccentricities you are allowed to have. And when it comes to Prince Charles, he has a number of peculiar food-related habits, one of which is mentioned multiple times in the latest season of The Crown.
The Netflix show about Queen Elizabeth's reign repeatedly harps on the fact that the heir to the British throne doesn't eat lunch. And while the series sometimes stretches the truth, this is a depiction based in reality.
The Prince of Wales even notes it on his website! In a list of 70 facts for Charles's 70th birthday, number 20 is "The Prince does not eat lunch." No explanation given.
"It can be a problem sometimes. When we do day visits or foreign tours, he can go the whole day without stopping for a break, which means we all have to miss our lunch as well," one anonymous royal courtier told the Daily Mail of the royal's curious habit in 2004.
"It's good in a way, because it means he has time to meet more people, but he doesn't seem to notice all the rumbling stomachs around him. You just learn that you have to have a big breakfast on those days."
While he may not eat lunch, there is one food the heir to the British throne does seem to enjoy: eggs. In fact, it's rumored that he has a boiled egg with every meal.
This gastronomic peculiarity is the one thing actor Josh O'Connor, who plays Charles in The Crown, would like to ask the real life Prince.
"Rumor has it, he doesn't eat lunch and whenever he eats, he'll always have a boiled egg. It doesn't matter what it is. So I'd kind of like to ask. I want to know the truth of that," O'Connor told me last year. "I wouldn't ask him anything about Diana. I wouldn't ask him anything about Camilla. I just want to know about the boiled egg."
