Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton once got a telling-off from The Queen over his bad etiquette at a Buckingham Palace lunch. The decorated racing driver has met the royal family on several occasions, with the most recent late last year, when he was knighted by the then- Prince of Wales, King Charles III.
But one of his earliest honours was handed out by Queen Elizabeth II herself back in 2009. Hamilton, who had been made an MBE, was invited to an intimate lunch event to celebrate, reports the Mirror.
Hamilton had earlier been told by Her Majesty that she was a fan, and that she had been cheering him on the previous year when he snatched the 2008 title at the dramatic Brazilian Grand Prix. But that didn't save him from her pointing out his bad table manners.
As the racer revealed in a TV interview, he had been just one of eight guests at the table with The Queen. And he had no chance of getting away with anything that was not protocol, given that he had the honour of being seated next to the monarch herself.
The Queen's usual unwritten rule was to seat herself next to the male guest considered to be the most important, while her husband Prince Philip did the same with a female guest of his choosing. So when she chose to be seated next to Hamilton, he was naturally excited.
But as he revealed on the Graham Norton show, he soon got a telling-off when he tried to speak to her straight away. "I got invited to a lunch and was sitting next to The Queen," he said. "I was excited and started to talk to her but she said, pointing to my left, 'No, you speak that way first and I'll speak this way and then I'll come back to you'."
Fortunately for the racer, his ignorance of royal dinner table etiquette did not seem to sour the mood.

with the late Queen in 2007, said she asked the monarch if she would like a version of the bronze cast to sit alongside the one she had previously made of the Duke at Buckingham Palace. “She said that would be very, very nice,” recalled Ms Segelman. “But looking at the photograph I was showing her, she said: ‘I wouldn't want the tiara on next to the Duke of Edinburgh as he's got just a shirt and tie.
