Throughout history, kings, queens, and their families have enjoyed special legal privileges that shield them from prosecution, taxation, and even public scrutiny. While modern constitutional monarchies have redefined the role of royalty, many of these privileges remain intact, allowing royal families to stay legally untouchable in ways that would be unthinkable for the average person.
