Jason, the former Philadelphia Eagles center, later stated that they had “violated royal protocol” because they were not required to bow to the prince in this case.

“We got a warning because, frankly, we don’t know the actual (etiquette),” he said.

Jason concluded: “They were wonderful people, and that’s what it’s about. They’re part of a monarchy… (it’s) hard to be a down-to-earth person – I would guess. But (they) came across completely that way.”
