- A secret tunnel used by the royal family has been revealed, and the palace is “livid.”
- The tunnel connects an iconic London hotel to Saint James’s Palace.
- Queen Elizabeth II reportedly used the passageway when she wanted a “quiet lunch.”
Today in baffling royal news, apparently everyone at the palace is upset that their secret tunnel has been exposed.
If this sentence has left you in a state of confusion, here’s the deal: Page Six recently dropped news that The Stafford London—an iconic luxury hotel—has a “a discreet private tunnel that leads directly to the doors of St. James’s Palace.”
And now Rob Shuter’s ShutterScoop is out here reporting that “Buckingham Palace is in meltdown” over news of the tunnel’s existence. A palace insider says that “Senior courtiers are livid,” and “They consider the tunnel’s existence classified — it was never meant for public knowledge.”
For what it’s worth, the tunnel isn’t used by the royals anymore and is currently housing the hotel’s wine collection. Per a source, “It’s the one place you can sip Bordeaux and still feel the crown above you.” But before its Bordeaux days, the tunnel was used by Queen Elizabeth II and the Queen mother when they wanted a “quiet lunch” away from cameras.
Unclear why the palace is so upset if this tunnel isn’t even in use by the royals anymore, but definitely now curious about tunnels under the palace in general, ahem!
