Even Brits are not ‘obliged’ to curtsey.
Cherie Blair, wife of Tony, never did.
Her head is still attached to her body …

So WAB won’t be ‘forced’ to curtsey.

Curtseying is simply a polite way of greeting the longest-reigning monarch in Europe, and a lady who will be 83 this year.

But you can’t force people to be polite and show manners.

If WAB curtsied to the Queen the whole front row of the audience would be knocked over.
