Kate to end sick hunting tradition?
Kate Middleton has apparently said “no” to her children being smeared with animal blood after a hunting kill
Kate Middleton has apparently said “no” to her children being smeared with animal blood after a hunting kill — a royal tradition known as “blooding.” In 2025. Yep. Welcome progress, sure… but let’s not pretend this is systemic change. Blood rituals like this still happen across hunts and shoots across the UK — from aristocrats to influencers.
Watch our latest video and see why we’re saying enough is enough.
So, she sees something is wrong with it, but seems to be more about the children than than the kills itself. She should be banning her children to participating in any form of violence towards animals and she should be teaching them it is not ok to hunt - or shoot! Such a tiny gesture so far, I wonder if her conscience now pricked a tiny bit will lead her to convert - eventually? Would be nice if she agreed with the majority of the public and turned her back on it all, but to be fair, must be difficult in her household and social circle!
She would gain some respect if she didn't take pleasure in killing animals and encouraging her children to do the same - and doing it at our expense.
