The Queen is judging you HARD! LOLz!
Well, not so much Queen Elizabeth II as her Buckingham Palace security!
Reportedly, they’ve grown concerned over the increase of overnight guests by members of the live-in staff!
Why?
Well, they’re worried because of the increased popularity of dating apps like Tinder and Grindr because those dates could be ‘literally anyone.’

Not only this, but the staff members who live at the palace, like maids, butlers, etc. can have guests at St. James Palace and the Royal Mews, (but NOT at Buckingham!) which provides a security threat to the Queen!
According to sources:
‘There are real and serious security concerns at Buckingham Palace about members of staff use of dating apps such as Tinder, which can be rather sleazy. The palace police are particularly unhappy about the number of guests of servants staying overnight, especially when they may have only just met on Tinder.
It is a security nightmare, especially in the current climate. The guests are allowed to stay at St James’s Palace but some have complained that when they leave they get asked “a million questions” by officers. But police say they are only doing their job.’
In fact, it’s only now coming to light because of the popularity of these dating apps!
The former head of security, Chief Superintendent Dai Davies, explained that this isn’t entirely a new concern!
It’s been around for AGES!
He said:
‘Historically this has always been a problem, even when I was in charge way before the introduction of these so-called dating apps. If members of staff lived in certain quarters, such as the Royal Mews and Kensington Palace, which have both single sex and married quarters, they were, and I presume still are, permitted to bring back unvetted guests.
Often these guests were total strangers. It makes a complete mockery of the security structure, unfortunately.’
YIKES! Better get those staff under lock and key! LOLz!
Just kidding, that’s entirely unethical!
But maybe they should tighten up those rules just a little bit if this is THAT big of a problem!
