THE ROYAL FAMILY

Prince William is just one of many left-handers in the Royal Family. His great grandmother, the Queen Mother, was lefthanded and so was her husband George VI. He wrote with his right hand, but had a severe stammer that may have resulted from being forced to use his weaker hand. Queen Victoria painted with her left hand, but wrote with her right.
