About This Quiz

If you want to join the ranks of Princess Diana, Duchess Kate and Duchess Meghan, among many other princesses around the world, you've got to have all the right stuff. Princesses are more than tiara-wearing, gala-attending, rule-following members of the royal family. They are style makers, humanitarians, mothers, friends, and so much more. All of their official engagements are their job. They need to have a presence among allies, varying cultures, and the people who trust them, whether strangers or kin. Once you're in with the royal family, your life will change forever, so if this is your dream, buckle up and get ready for the ride!

But, before you do, maybe make sure that you have all of the personality traits, qualities and work ethic that goes along with it. One way to do that would be to really take a deep dive into the ins and outs of royal life. If you think you can handle it, then go and find yourself a prince at once! But if you're a little questioning, that's okay too. There's no such thing as a perfect royal, because at the end of the day, they're only human. Another way to approach it is to take this quiz and find out what % princess material you are. So get to it, post-haste!
