Traditionally the royal family are form long lived lines.. the Queen mother was 101. Might be that they are pampered, might be they have good genes.. who knows

@Adaydreambeliever Nobles have the least good genes. So much inbreeding even Queen Victoria's husband was somehow related to her

@SW-User he is actually still related to the royal family I believe or from royal stock himself..
Adaydreambeliever · 56-60, F
@DrSunnyTheSkeptic you are right that they are all often related but we really can't argue on the genes front as they are pretty long lived and pretty healthy at that.

@Adaydreambeliever Or that a crack team of the most expensive doctors on the planet leap in to action the second any one of them sneezes

SW-User
@Adaydreambeliever Probably somewhere in there -- he also has Danish Royal blood and since Elizabeth is actually more German than British who the hell knows!

@ChilledStone I would agree.. and that's true.. but we know that generally speaking they are a pretty healthy bunch and rarely see a doc.. either way the best doc can only work with the material they have in front of them. I do think that they are pampered, dont have to work, have relatively few worries and stresses that most of us have to deal with helps

@Adaydreambeliever I can find plenty of videos on youtube about nobles with disabilities that were mentally retarded or physically deformed. The only way today's nobility has gotten out of the loop of inbreeding was by marrying non nobles or nobles from far away that have no way to be related to them. Sometimes that cursed the new noble family, as the case with the Russian nobility at the time

@ChilledStone Exactly
