The life of the royals on Instagram Young, cute and outrageously rich

Heirs to the throne and members of royal families have been the protagonists of legends ever since humans learned to read and write and, several millennia later, in the height of the digital age, that fascination has not yet run out. According to the Royal Fashion Report published by Lyst, the leading search engine of the luxury fashion world, what the royals of our time do and wear still influence a huge number of people. For example, after Queen Letizia of Spain wore a Zara dress in June, this became the brand's most sought-after globally in the last six months. When Kate Middleton wore a pair of Accessorize earrings, Lyst's searches for "Accessorize earrings" increased by 105% on a weekly basis, and after Charlène of Monaco was seen wearing a yellow leather jacket at the opening of the Tour de France, searches for that same item increased by 31% each week.

After a period of relative obscurity, Europe's ancient royal families and their younger scions are becoming Instagram celebrities. Unlike many influencers, in fact, their lifestyle is really on another level, not to mention that somewhat romantic charm that an emblazoned lineage always carries with it. Unlike the Italian royals, whose story is dotted with more embarrassing episodes than anything else (such as every minute of the reign of Victor Emmanuel III or the participation of Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy in Dancing with the Stars), the Instagram of the princes and princesses of 2020 has become the privileged window on a narrow and closed world in itself , in perpetual contradiction with the chaotic world of today.

That's why nss magazine has compiled a list of the 10 best Instagrams of royals from around the world.

Prince Achileas-Andreas of Greece and Denmark 

The granddaughter of the iconic Princess Diana Spencer, the official face of BVLGARI, a frequent model for Dolce & Gabbana but also a philanthropist and socialite, Kitty Spencer (@kitty.spencer) is perhaps the most successful fusion of the aristocrat and the influencer with 515,000 followers on Instagram. The Milan Fashion Week habitué along with her fiancé, millionaire Michael Lewis, Spencer is perhaps the most-connected royal on this list - and certainly the one with the best Instagram, thanks to the scenes immortalized during her luxurious holidays.
