DUDE BUT THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL PEOPLE

in medieval times you ONLY addressed a king/queen with “Your Majesty”, NEVER “Your Highness”.  To address a king/queen with “Your Highness” was considered an insult.

Here’s a more extensive list of titles and what you would call a person/their wife/their mother/their children

… So when Cinderella’s stepsister Anastasia curtsied terribly and addressed Prince Charming as “Your Grace”, it was UNSPEAKABLY RUDE?

This drives me nuts when I read someone addresses a King or Queen as Your Highness. NO! IT’S YOUR MAJESTY!
