Because of their position of privilege they are duty bound to follow certain protocols

More then a few years to be fair. The Aristocracy these days counts for nothing and the Royal Family are a tourist trap and it's the same for the rest of the European Royal Families so why stick to protocals that have no relevance in today's world? Let them marry who they want.
