Buckingham Palace and the Household Cavalry Museum may be a couple of London’s biggest tourist attractions, but the royal horses on guard outside haven’t been playing up to the crowds lately. When they’re not bolting through the streets, the King’s Guard horses have been known to kick and bite if tourists get too close. But despite the clear warning signs on display, reports say dozens of people still take the risk daily for selfies. In the latest incident caught on camera, a woman fainted yesterday after being nipped by a royal horse. It follows several headbutts and kicks over previous months… Meanwhile, inside the palace, there’s been another royal birthday, with Prince George turning 11. To mark the occasion, Princess Kate released a new portrait of the prince in black and white, showing him wearing a friendship bracelet – maybe one from his fave singer Taylor Swift?
