Unless you are Fiona O’Loughlin, who admits she once accidentally swore in front of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.

WATCH Fiona O’Loughlin recall the moment she swore in front of the queen. 

The winner of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! recalled the extremely embarrassing occurrence on Today Extra on Monday, and admitted it was her husband’s fault she’d used the ‘F Word’ in the presence of HRH.

Fiona recalled how she had mistakenly asked Prince Philip if her husband had “f**ked up” by shaking the Queen’s hand.

It is completely against royal protocol to initiate contact with a member of the royal family. 

The cock-up occurred when Fiona, 55, and her husband Chris met the queen and Prince Philip in Alice Springs, many years ago.

“The Queen was coming to Alice Springs and they invited 50 of the flashiest people they could find,” she said.

Comedian Fiona continued: “I’m pretty sure my husband and I came in at 49 and 50! We were the only two people that hadn’t met her.

“I saw my husband break protocol and shake the Queen’s hand.

“He said, ‘G’day, I’m Chris!’ and I raced from one side of the room to the other… but I’d had a few glasses of personality.

“I turned to a stranger on my left and said, ‘Did he just rhymes-with-duck [f**k] up?’ and Prince Phillip lent down and said,’Not as much as you just did, sweetheart!’”

Taking the gaffe in her stride, Fiona confessed: “I don’t care what anyone says, [Prince Philip] is a funny guy.”
